  This paper reviews the challenges encountered by second language learners in the  acquisition  and  utilization  of  collocations,  which  are  crucial aspects of proficient language use. Collocations refer to the habitual pairing or grouping of words  that  occur  together  frequently  in  natural  language.  The  research synthesizes findings from various studies conducted in the field, highlighting common difficulties experienced by learners across different proficiency levels and linguistic backgrounds. Key factors contributing to these challenges include differences  in  first  language  structures,  inadequate  exposure  to  authentic language use, limited awareness of collocational patterns, and difficulties in achieving  native-like  fluency.  Additionally,  pedagogical  implications  and effective  instructional  strategies  for  enhancing  collocational competence are discussed,  is to inform language instructors and curriculum developers in building more targeted and effective language learning materials and activities.This  research  is  divided  into  three  sections;  section  one  presents  the preliminaries   of   the   study.   Section   two   explains   the   meaning,   types, characteristics, and importance of the study. Section three will apply a test of collocation on the 4th stage of the college to know their weakness points in collocation. Finally, the conclusion is the research.

In order for students to achieve the best learning outcomes, they must be involved in their studies and confident. Combining the debate method and the Number Head method together is one of the useful strategies to increase self-confidence and activity. If the Number Head Together method encourages students to actively participate in their education, the debate method seeks to develop students' self-confidence in voicing their opinions. The purpose of this study was to determine the difference in the influence of the experimental class and the control class. The Independent T-Test and Test 3 (Hotteling's T2 Test) were used in experimental research and hypothesis testing. From the first hypothesis test, the Sig value was produced. 0.068> 0.05, which means that there is no effect of learning with a combination of the Number Head Together - Debate Method and learning without treatment on student learning activity. While the results of the second Hypothesis test show a Sig value. 0.416> 0.05, namely there is no effect of learning with a combination of the Number Head Together - Debate Method on student self-confidence. And the results of the Hotteling T2 test show that the ρ-value for learning activity is 0.342 > 0.05, meaning that there is no difference in the average learning activity between students from both classes. The ρ-value for self-confidence is 0.049 < 0.05, meaning that there is a difference in the average self-confidence between students from both classes.

This research aims to analyze the quality of the Camera Translator application based on the perspective of Nababan’s theory. The reason for conducting this research is because of the importance of understanding the quality of the camera translator application which is increasingly used in everyday life and education, especially to overcome limited foreign language skills. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The research instruments used include the Camera translator application and translation quality assessments based on Nababan theory indicators, namely accuracy, readability, and acceptability. The data source in this research is written text, a part of a short story entitled “April in Moscow” translated using a camera translator application. The research data is in the form of text translation results from English to Indonesian taken by taking pictures of the text to be translated. The research results show that camera translator applications have varying accuracy, readability, and acceptability levels. From data sources totaling 63 sentences from part of the short story "April in Moscow", 41 sentences were translated accurately, 15 sentences were translated less accurately, and 7 sentences were not accurate. In terms of acceptability, 39 sentences were acceptable, 14 sentences were less acceptable, and 10 sentences were not acceptable. From the readability aspect, 44 sentences are readable, 12 sentences are less readable, and 7 sentences are not readable. In general, the translation results are quite good, however, there are several errors in the translation of certain words and phrases which affect the overall quality of the translation. This research concludes that the camera translator application has good quality in transferring the meaning of written text from English to Bahasa. It also can be a useful tool for translating texts in daily life and education, but users must remain careful about potential translation errors. Evaluation of translation quality using Nababan's theory can provide deeper insight into the advantages and disadvantages of camera translator applications.

This research aims to determine, 1) improvement in shooting technique through the resistance band training method, 2) improvement in shooting technique through the dumbbell training method, 3) calculation of improvement in shooting technique through the training method using resistance bands and dumbbells. The research method used in this research is an experiment with a quantitative approach and a Two Group Pretest Posttest Design research design. The subjects of this research were 30 Petanque athletes, students at SDN Rawamangun 09, taken using a purposive sampling technique. Data collection was carried out by conducting a shooting technique skills test at a distance of 6 meters using 1 target ball and 10 throws for each athlete. Data analysis was carried out using dependent and independent "t tests" with a significance level of 0.5. Research results: 1) training using Resistance Bands, obtained a t count of 6.2 which is greater than the t table of 2.145, so it means that H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted, meaning there is a significant increase, 2) training using Dumbbells, obtained a t count of 1.65 more smaller than the t table of 2.145, then H0 is accepted and H1 is rejected, meaning there is no significant improvement, 3) comparing the final test results of the two training methods, the results obtained are, t count 2.66 is greater than t table 2.048, meaning there is a difference between Resistance Band training method using Dumbbell exercises. So it can be concluded that there is a significant change in Resistance Band training with an average of 4.93 and Dumbbell training results with an average of 3.6.
