Digital inequity continues to challenge vocational education in rural areas, where limited infrastructure and instructional resources constrain students’ opportunities to acquire essential digital skills. This study reports the design, development, and validation of an interactive e-book learning medium for Microsoft Office instruction using the ADDIE instructional design model. The study was conducted in a rural vocational high school in West Kalimantan, Indonesia, involving Grade XI students from the Agribusiness of Food Crops program. The e-book was developed using Canva as a cloud-based authoring platform to ensure accessibility, mobile compatibility, and cost efficiency. The research employed a design-based development approach, incorporating expert validation and student response evaluation. Participants included two media experts, one subject-matter expert, one vocational teacher, and 30 students. Quantitative data were collected using Likert-scale validation instruments and student response questionnaires, while qualitative feedback informed iterative revisions. The results indicate that the developed e-book achieved a high level of validity, with expert validation scores exceeding 90%, and was perceived by students as practical, engaging, and supportive of independent learning. Observational findings further suggest improvements in student engagement and instructional efficiency. The study demonstrates that low-threshold design platforms, when guided by systematic instructional design principles, can produce pedagogically robust digital learning media suitable for resource-constrained contexts. The findings contribute to the literature on educational technology and instructional design by extending e-book development research into rural vocational education and highlighting practical strategies for promoting digital learning equity.
