Yogyakarta, 2024 – The Directorate of Research and Community Service at Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) organized a workshop on strengthening online resilience for students of SMPIT Masjid Syuhada Yogyakarta. The workshop was funded through the Matching Fund Program under the Community Problem-Solving Scheme and led by Prof. Dr. Siti Irene Astuti Dwiningrum, M.Si., together with team members Dr. Ariefa Efianingrum, M.Si., Dr. Pratiwi Wahyu Widiarti, M.Si., and Muslikhin, Ph.D. The workshop was supported by facilitators Nopita Sitompul, M.Pd., and Anindita A., along with university students who assisted participants in using playing cards and interactive animations as learning media. The workshop was held on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, in the seventh-grade classrooms for male and female students at SMPIT Masjid Syuhada Yogyakarta. The activity was attended by seventh-grade male and female students in separate sessions.

The workshop began with an explanation by Prof. Dr. Siti Irene Astuti Dwiningrum, M.Si., regarding the importance of strengthening online resilience. In her presentation, she emphasized that resilience is an essential quality for both teachers and students. For teachers, resilience serves as a fundamental resource in delivering learning materials at school, while for students, it helps develop the perseverance needed to pursue their education. During her presentation, she used Sinta's Resistance Guidebook, which contains playing cards depicting various challenges faced by Sinta, a senior high school student who was accused of committing violence. Participants were asked to help uncover the truth and resolve Sinta's problems as a means of strengthening their online resilience.

Strengthening resilience is expected to help address literacy challenges among students at SMPIT Masjid Syuhada Yogyakarta. It is also important for students at other educational levels to better prepare them for various challenges and developments in teaching and learning. Educational innovations that incorporate games as learning resources can be utilized to strengthen literacy and numeracy resilience. Indonesia's cultural diversity serves as a valuable resource for motivating teachers to design mathematics learning activities that enhance students' online resilience. Through this workshop, teachers were expected to develop greater awareness of the importance of adopting diverse instructional approaches to strengthen online resilience and make teaching and learning more creative and effective.
