Abstract

Abstract. Society 5.0 requires teachers to integrate technology into instruction, yet the Batu City Geography Teachers’ Working Group (MGMP) struggles to produce interactive, realistic learning materials. This program aimed to strengthen teachers’ professional skills in developing Metaverse-based interactive media for deep learning by engaging 16 MGMP teachers in a hybrid mentoring format that combined online instruction with an in-person workshop. Using the Service Learning approach within a qualitative case-study design, data were collected through observation, interviews, reflection sheets, and evaluation of teachers’ lithosphere-based 3D media, then analyzed thematically. By the end of mentoring, [isi jumlah] of the 16 teachers had completed and presented an original 3D lithosphere media project, showing concrete gains in ICT design skills and a shift from teacher-centered to collaborative instruction. The 3D space helped visualize abstract phenomena such as mountainous topography and disaster vulnerability, while lightweight web-based tools and small-group role-sharing addressed hardware and connectivity limits.
