Abstract

This community service program aimed to enhance the competence of special education teachers in utilizing AI-based digital tools to support differentiated learning. The activity was conducted at SLB PGRI Kamal Madura and involved 10 teachers with various years of teaching experience. The service comprised workshops and guided practices introducing AI platforms like ChatGPT, Pixton, InVideo, and D-ID. Implementation methods included offline and online sessions. Findings showed an increase in teachers’ confidence and skills in creating customized learning media, despite technical challenges. The results support the use of AI to strengthen inclusive education practices and suggest scaling the training to other regions.
