Background: The rate of child marriage in Jember Regency, particularly in Sumberkejayan Village, remains high and continues to negatively affect children’s physical, psychological, social, and economic well-being. Comprehensive reproductive health education from the elementary level is crucial; however, teachers often face limitations in delivering this material through engaging and context-appropriate media. Objective: This program aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of interactive learning media using Articulate Storyline to improve elementary students’ understanding of reproductive health and to strengthen teachers’ competence. Method: The program employed a Research and Development (R&D) design following the ADDIE model. A total of 112 students from four elementary schools in Sumberkejayan Village participated. The instrument consisted of 10 Likert-scale items (1–5) administered as pre- and post-tests, and the results were analyzed using the N-gain score. Results: The effectiveness test yielded an average N-gain score of 0.66 (moderate category), demonstrating a significant improvement in students’ understanding. Teachers also reported increased competence in developing and applying interactive media. Conclusion: The use of Articulate Storyline proved effective as a technology-based tool for reproductive health education in elementary schools and enhanced teachers’ pedagogical competence. This program offers a preventive and educational strategy to help reduce the incidence of child marriage through innovative, interactive learning.
