The rapid advancement of digital technology requires teachers to continuously improve their competencies in designing interactive learning experiences that enhance student engagement. This community service program aimed to strengthen the capacity of senior high school and vocational school teachers in implementing digital learning transformation through the introduction of interactive learning strategies and digital tools. The program was conducted using a seminar approach combined with hands-on demonstrations of various educational technologies, including Kahoot!, Quizizz, Mentimeter, Padlet, Nearpod, EdPuzzle, ChatGPT, and Amplify, a gamification platform integrated with Google Classroom. Participant satisfaction was evaluated using a structured questionnaire administered at the end of the seminar. The evaluation results indicated an average satisfaction level of 81.11%, with the highest score (86.67%) related to participants' ability to identify areas for improvement in their digital teaching practices. Overall, the seminar successfully enhanced teachers' understanding of digital learning strategies and increased their readiness to implement interactive technologies that support student engagement in classroom learning.
