The goal is to create a fun learning atmosphere and motivate students to actively participate in the learning process. The approach used is Classroom Action Research (CAR), with data collection through direct observation, short interviews with class teachers, and oral comprehension tests before and after the intervention. The results of the observation showed a significant increase in students' ability to understand and use tens in English after the method was applied. Thus, this learning method has proven effective and can be used as a reference or alternative strategy in teaching English at the elementary school level, especially for numbers and figures.

Toddlers are in an important stage of growth and development. During this period, rapid growth and development are greatly influenced by adequate nutritional intake. One of the health problems that toddlers can experience is stunting, which is a growth disorder caused by long-term malnutrition. Stunting can affect brain development, reduce cognitive abilities, and increase the risk of chronic diseases later in life. Based on data from the 2022 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey (SSGI), the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia is still high, although there has been a decline. Mothers have a very important role in monitoring and providing adequate nutrition for children. It is hoped that by increasing mothers' knowledge about nutrition, stunting can be prevented so that superior human resources are created in the future.

Nigeria's economy has been severely stagnant since the 1980s. Afrocentric literature charts the nation's history, whereas Eurocentric literature identifies the Nigerian civil war and the corrupt practices of its leaders as the primary cause economic hardships to her historical colonial dominance and economic exploitation activities. However, none of the aforementioned reasons provide stronger support for being the cause of the nation's economic dysfunction, particularly when contrasted with IMF measures implemented there. The IMF's policies on Nigeria's Structural Adjustment Program (SAP) and its Loan Conditionality are partially shown in this article to be "the crux impediment facing the country." As a result, the paper makes the case that, among other mismanagement policies, General Ibrahim Babangida's acceptance of IMF loans contributed to the nation's economic problems and backwardness. Using primary and secondary sources, the study makes the argument that its riches would be restored by a more inclusive economic system free of the current extractive economic practices.

Learning boredom is one of the common problems faced by students, especially at the Madrasah Aliyah level. This issue negatively impacts students' motivation and learning outcomes, which in turn can affect the quality of education. This study aims to implement an innovation in learning through the Problem Based Learning (PBL) approach as an effort to reduce learning boredom among students at MA Zainul Hasan 2 during the 2024-2025 academic year. The method used is Classroom Action Research (CAR) with the Kemmis and McTaggart model, which consists of two cycles. Each cycle includes four stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data collection techniques include observation, questionnaires, and interviews. The results of the study indicate a significant decrease in students' learning boredom levels after the implementation of PBL. The average level of learning boredom decreased from 65% in the first cycle to 45% in the second cycle. This decrease shows that the application of PBL-based learning can have a positive effect in reducing learning boredom and increasing student engagement in the learning process. The PBL-based learning innovation has proven to be effective in creating a more engaging and interactive learning environment, which ultimately can improve students' motivation and enhance their learning outcomes. Thus, this study concludes that the implementation of Problem Based Learning can be an effective solution to overcome learning boredom among Madrasah Aliyah students.

Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disease caused by problems in the body in producing insulin, insulin produced is lacking or nonexistent, or it can be due to the insulin receptor not functioning so that cells cannot receive glucose for metabolism (Black, M. J. & Hawks, 2014; Pranata, S & Khasanah, 2017). Diabetic wounds are caused by infection as a result of high blood glucose, thereby increasing bacterial proliferation, and added to the deficiency of the immune system which causes the wound inflammation period to last a long time. In addition, inappropriate treatment of diabetic wounds (ulcers) can worsen the condition of the wound (Ekaputra, 2013). Therefore, proper and optimal wound care is needed. The wound care method that is currently developing is moist wound healing, which is more effective than conventional methods because it is easy to install, can adjust to the shape of the wound, easy to remove, comfortable to wear, does not need to change dressings frequently, absorbs drainage, presses and immobilizes wounds, prevents new wounds from mechanical injury, prevents infection, improves hemostasis by pressing the dressing. Wound care procedures through Debridement and dressing. Wound debridement can accelerate healing by removing necrotic tissue, particulates, or foreign material, and reducing the bacterial load. The conventional method is to use a scalpel and cut away all unwanted tissue including callus and eschar. Saline-moistened (wet-to-dry) gauze dressings; moisture-retaining dressings (hydrogels, hydrocolloids, hydrofibers, transparent films and alginates) that provide physical and autolytic debridement respectively; and antiseptic dressings (silver dressings, cadexomer). Newer advanced dressings are being studied, such as Vulnamin gel made from amino acids and hyaluronic acid used in conjunction with elastic compression have shown positive results.

Environmental pollution is now a major problem in the development of science. The problem of water pollution is one of the impacts of the development of science itself.

Effective financial management is a major challenge for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Cikarang, especially in the culinary sector such as Ayam Geprek Bungsu. The main problems faced by business owners are economic limitations and uncertain fluctuations in raw material prices, which have an impact on the stability of cash flow and business profits. This condition results in suboptimal financial management, because often business owners are unable to separate personal and business finances, as well as difficulties in long-term budget planning. This activity aims to analyze the financial management of Ayam Geprek Bungsu and identify strategic steps that can be taken to improve financial efficiency. The research method used is a case study through interviews and analysis of simple financial statements. The results of the analysis show that the lack of regular financial records and the absence of a structured financial management system are the main causes of financial inefficiency. In addition, dependence on a single supplier for raw materials led to vulnerability to price increases. As a solution, this report recommends the implementation of a simple yet regular financial recording system, financial management training for business owners, and diversification of raw material suppliers to minimize the impact of price fluctuations. With these measures, Ayam Geprek Bungsu is expected to improve financial stability, optimize cash flow management, and ultimately strengthen business sustainability amid dynamic economic challenges. The growth and role of MSMEs can still be improved not only because of their resilience in the face of various economic shocks, but also their ability to provide employment, and overcome poverty.

The Community Service Program (KKN) in Sukosari Village, Jumantono District, Karanganyar Regency, which will be implemented in August 2024, aims to overcome the problem of community service by focusing on preventing stunting and empowering MSMEs.
