This study investigates the effect of the Team Word-Webbing technique on reading comprehension among tenth-grade students at MAN Koto Baru, Dharmasraya. Reading comprehension is critical for language acquisition and academic success, as it encompasses the ability to extract and interpret meaning from text. Despite its importance, many students struggle with reading comprehension due to various factors including limited vocabulary and insufficient engagement. To address these issues, the study employed a quantitative experimental design, using a quasi-experimental approach with an experimental group and a control group. The research involved a pre-test and post-test assessment to measure reading comprehension levels before and after the implementation of the Team Word-Webbing technique. The experimental group was taught using this technique, which involves organizing ideas visually to enhance understanding, while the control group received traditional instruction. The sample consisted of two classes selected through purposive sampling, with data analyzed using t-tests to compare outcomes. Results indicated that the Team Word-Webbing technique significantly improved reading comprehension compared to conventional methods. The experimental group demonstrated higher post-test scores, with statistical analysis revealing a significant difference (p < 0.05). This suggests that Team Word-Webbing enhances students' ability to understand and retain reading material by facilitating better organization of ideas and active engagement. In conclusion, the study supports the effectiveness of Team Word-Webbing as an instructional strategy to improve reading comprehension. This technique not only aids in comprehension but also promotes active learning and student interaction, making it a valuable tool for educators aiming to enhance reading skills in the classroom.

The essence of education as stated in the Preamble to the 1945 Constitution is to educate the nation, namely to form citizens who are creative and innovative in applying knowledge to face challenges in social, national, and state life. This study aims to determine the form of learning innovation applied by teachers in the Fiqh subject, especially in the material on usury at Madrasah Aliyah An Nur Pagar Jati. The method used is qualitative research with a field study approach. Data collection was carried out through interviews with subject teachers and students of class XI IPS 1 who were the subjects of the application of learning strategies. The strategy applied is the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach. Based on the results of the study, the CTL strategy has been implemented well at MA An Nur Pagar Jati and is able to improve students' understanding of the teaching material. To support the continuous improvement of the quality of education, evaluation and development of learning strategies need to be carried out continuously.

This study is motivated by the continued dominance of lecture-based and drill methods in Fiqh learning, which results in low student interest and enthusiasm. This contradicts the demands of the 2013 Curriculum, which emphasizes student activeness and critical thinking. Therefore, a more effective and efficient learning model is needed. The purpose of this study is to describe the implementation of the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) model in improving students' understanding of Fiqh material at MTs Nurul Hidayah. This research uses a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the CTL model has been quite effective. This can be seen from the active involvement of students in the learning process through activities such as observing, discussing, working in groups, and connecting the material with real-life experiences. Learning through the CTL approach makes the process more meaningful and contextual, enabling students to gain a deeper and longer-lasting understanding of the Fiqh material.

This journal looks at the legal concerns of managing natural resources by producing compost using a market-based method based on garbage. This study's primary goal is to evaluate the efficacy and compliance of the legal requirements controlling the use of market trash as a raw material for compost fertilizer. The study's findings indicate that there are several pertinent laws that offer a legal framework for market waste management, including the Environmental Law and government waste management rules. However, there are obstacles to the law's implementation and enforcement, such as a lack of knowledge among business actors and oversight flaws. To ensure sustainability and efficiency in managing market waste as a resource for making compost, this study also found that, despite the existence of existing regulations, regulatory updates and harmonization are still required. To maximize the environmental and economic benefits of market waste management, this research recommends improvements in regulations and law enforcement, as well as increased education and training for business actors.The results of the study indicate that the utilization of market waste for making compost has great potential in supporting organic farming and reducing the volume of waste that ends up in landfills. However, the implementation of this program requires a deep understanding of applicable regulations, as well as support from the government and the community. This article concludes that comprehensive legal-based waste management can improve the efficiency and sustainability of natural resource management, as well as have a positive impact on community welfare.

Eco-Play is a creative learning activity designed for elementary school students to introduce the concept of environmental sustainability through the activity of coloring and recycling plastic bottles into plant pots. In this program, children are encouraged to explore their creativity by decorating used plastic bottles using paint and various eco-friendly materials.

Based on the observation, a problem was found regarding the lack of interest in learning Christian Religious Education and Character Education in class V of SD Negeri 174552 Tambunan. This is due to the difficulty of students in understanding the learning material. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of learning using visual media compared to learning using conventional media. The type of experimental research used is Quasi Experiment. Class V-A is the experimental class and class V-B is the control class. The dependent variable in this study is the interest in learning Christian Religious Education and Character Education and the independent variable is visual media. The data collection technique used a questionnaire. The results of the study used data from the initial test scores (Pretest) and the final test (Posttest). The results of the study showed that the use of visual media in the experimental class was more effective than the use of conventional learning media in the control class. The results of the t-test in the experimental class showed tcount (7.74) > ttable (2.01) H0 was rejected. The results of the t-test in the control class showed tcount (0.52) < ttable (2.01) H0 was accepted. Then N-Gain obtained the average N-Gain in the experimental class 0.37, in the control class the average N-Gain 0.03. The results of the N-Gain t-test of the experimental and control classes showed t count (10.29) > t table (2.01) H0 was rejected.
