It also encouraged them to be more careful in applying EYD rules, which contributed to their language proficiency. The study concludes that Indonesian language development activities through learning standard words and EYD, supported by the TGT model, can significantly enhance students’ language skills and understanding, thus improving their overall language use in educational settings. This approach can serve as a model for similar educational institutions aiming to enhance language proficiency.

This study has two main objectives, namely (1) to identify various difficulties experienced by students in reading activities in class III of MI Al-Barokah, and (2) to analyze the application of puzzle media as an alternative solution to overcome these difficulties. The research approach used is qualitative with a case study method. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation of teaching and learning activities. Data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman model, which includes the stages of data collection, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that third-grade students at MI Al-Barokah still faced various obstacles in reading, including spelling letters one by one, needing the teacher's help when pronouncing words, difficulty distinguishing certain letters, often repeating words or sentences, and not being able to read fluently overall. The use of puzzle media proved to be effective in helping teachers overcome these problems. The use of this media was also able to increase student activity, foster a spirit of learning, and foster their interest in reading activities in the third grade at MI Al-Barokah.

This study aims to analyze the change in word choice in Indonesian children's songs from the classical to modern times as a reflection of the shift in the social environment in the digital era. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a content analysis method on eight children's songs, consisting of four classic songs by A. T. Mahmud and four popular modern songs on digital platforms such as YouTube. The results showed that classical songs highlight concrete and local vocabulary that describe children's closeness to nature, family, and moral values, while modern songs are dominated by global, repetitive, and phonetic vocabulary that reflect the influence of globalization and the digital lifestyle of today's children. In addition, modern songs tend to contain simple expressions that are easy to remember, but have minimal educational value compared to classical songs that are more loaded with moral messages. This shift shows that the language in children's songs not only serves as a medium of entertainment, but also reflects the changing social and cultural values of Indonesian society. Therefore, the study of children's song language is important to understand the dynamics of popular cultural development that affects the process of character formation of the younger generation.

Guidance and Counseling services have a strategic role in supporting students’ holistic development, including academic, social, emotional, and moral aspects. However, in practical implementation, counseling services in schools still show a gap between theoretical ideal concepts and real field practices. This study aims to analyze the role of school counselors in the implementation of Guidance and Counseling services at MTs Ibnu Sina Karawang, focusing on the counselor’s role, teacher-student interaction patterns, supporting factors, and challenges faced during implementation. This research employed a qualitative approach through semi-structured interviews with the school principal, teachers, and selected students. The findings show that the counselor plays multiple roles, namely as a disciplinary guide, personal counselor, moral educator, and facilitator of religious character strengthening. The interaction between counselors and students is carried out through humanistic, empathetic and communicative approaches. Supporting factors include strong collaboration among teachers, principals, homeroom teachers, and religious-based school activities. Meanwhile, several obstacles are found such as limited number of counselors, lack of students’ comprehensive understanding about BK functions, limited time allocation, and negative stigma that counseling services are only for problematic students. This research emphasizes the need for strengthening counseling literacy and transforming services into more preventive, developmental, collaborative, and continuously progressive student-oriented programs.

This article examines the implications of parental verbal violence on the socio-emotional development of early childhood aged 3–6 years. The study was conducted through an extensive literature review supported by general field observations in community settings. The purpose of this research is to describe the phenomenon of verbal violence experienced by young children, analyze its effects on their emotional security, self-confidence, and social adaptation, and identify contributing factors from both the family environment and parental characteristics. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, relevant books, journal articles, and institutional reports were synthesized to construct a comprehensive understanding of how negative communication patterns shape children’s socio-emotional development. The findings indicate that verbal violence such as yelling, scolding, insulting, labeling, and threatening can disrupt children’s emotional regulation, lower their self-esteem, and hinder their ability to interact positively with peers. Repeated exposure to harsh language also increases the risk of anxiety, aggression, and social withdrawal. Conversely, positive, supportive, and empathetic parental communication fosters emotional resilience, empathy, and healthy social behavior. This article highlights the urgent need for parents, educators, and communities to strengthen awareness regarding the harmful impact of verbal violence and to promote nurturing communication practices that support the holistic development of young children.

Based on observation data, it can be seen that science learning in elementary schools still does not improve student learning outcomes. This is because the learning is still teacher-centered or learning that is centered on the teacher (the teacher is active while the students are passive) and the use of learning media is still lacking. This can cause the impression of boring learning and can result in low student motivation which has an impact on student learning outcomes in learning. Therefore, a study was conducted on the use of role-playing tools in improving science learning outcomes about the motion of objects and energy. The purpose of this study was to improve science learning outcomes about the motion of objects and energy by using teaching aids. This study used classroom action research (CAR). The research subjects were grade III students of SD Negeri 06 Dobo, Aru Islands Regency, Maluku. The results of the study showed that the use of role-playing tools can increase (1) student activity in learning, (2) increase teacher activity, (3) Improve student learning outcomes in science learning about the motion of objects and energy. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the use of teaching aids can improve student learning outcomes in science learning about the motion of objects and energy. Suggestions that can be given in this study are that student learning outcomes can be improved through other learning methods and media.

Extraction is a crucial stage in obtaining bioactive compounds from natural materials that have potential as medicinal, cosmetic, or nutraceutical ingredients. Among the various extraction methods available, maceration remains one of the most widely used techniques due to its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and ability to maintain the stability of active compounds. The maceration process involves soaking powdered plant material in a suitable solvent at room temperature for a certain period, accompanied by periodic stirring to facilitate the diffusion of active compounds into the solvent. This method is particularly effective for extracting polar and semi-polar compounds such as flavonoids, phenolics, and essential oils that are sensitive to heat. The review shows that the effectiveness of maceration is influenced by several key factors, including the type and concentration of solvent, particle size of the material, duration of soaking, and stirring frequency. The use of ethanol with higher concentrations generally yields greater extract recovery and higher levels of active compounds. In addition, maceration is considered environmentally friendly because it requires no excessive heating and can employ safe, natural solvents. Therefore, despite the development of advanced extraction technologies, maceration remains a relevant, practical, and efficient method for phytochemical extraction, especially in laboratory research and small-scale herbal industries.
