Abstract

The digital transformation of education has encouraged the adoption of interactive learning media to enhance elementary students' learning experiences. This community service program aimed to implement Spatial.io as an innovative digital learning platform for fifth-grade students at SD Negeri Cipagalo 3, Bandung Regency. The program employed a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach consisting of needs assessment, media development, teacher training, classroom implementation, and program evaluation. The learning materials focused on science and social science (IPAS) topics related to world conservation and the Earth–space system through an interactive virtual environment. Program evaluation was conducted using classroom observations and a satisfaction questionnaire involving 23 respondents. The findings indicated that Spatial.io successfully increased students' engagement during learning activities and achieved a 100% satisfaction rate from the partner institution, with 71.3% of respondents indicating Strongly Agree and 28.7% indicating Agree. These results demonstrate that virtual spatial learning media provide a promising alternative for supporting digital transformation in elementary education.
