The 21st century is marked by the advancement of science and technology, driving increasingly complex changes in life. In the context of education, a multidisciplinary learning approach has become relevant in enhancing students' complex thinking abilities. This approach allows students to integrate various disciplines in solving existing problems, thereby improving their critical, analytical, and creative thinking skills. This study explores the relationship between multidisciplinary learning and students' complex thinking abilities, the factors influencing its implementation effectiveness, and effective multidisciplinary learning strategies. Based on previous research, multidisciplinary learning has been proven to enhance complex thinking skills by up to 35% compared to conventional learning methods. However, its implementation faces several challenges, including a lack of teacher readiness, limited resources, and a learning culture that still emphasizes rote memorization. Therefore, problem-based learning strategies, cross-disciplinary collaboration, and the use of technology are recommended to improve the effectiveness of this approach.

This research is a qualitative research used to determine the application of positive early childhood  discipline as well as supporting and inhibiting factors in its application. Data collection was carried out by observation and interview methods. The application of positive discipline in question includes the stages of application that are carried out technically and the application of positive discipline in essence, namely the application of the 7 principles of positive discipline. The results of the study show that the application of positive discipline is carried out through 3 stages, namely the socialization stage, the preparation stage and the implementation stage. The application was carried out in 10 study groups. The application is also applied by paying attention to the 7 principles of positive discipline which are the essence of positive discipline itself.  The factors that support the implementation of positive discipline are the readiness of educators to continue learning, the adaptive attitude of educators, the superior personality competencies possessed by educators, adequate school facilities, the ideal number of students in each class, and the Special Curriculum owned by the Institution. The factors that hinder the implementation are that educators' understanding of the implementation of positive discipline has not been comprehensive, the role of schools in the implementation of discipline has not been carried out comprehensively, and there has been no evaluation of the results of the implementation of positive discipline.

The implications of this study emphasize the importance of inclusive and dynamic learning, and the role of teachers as innovative facilitators.  

Education is a learning process aimed at developing individual potential in cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects, enabling them to contribute optimally to society. In formal education, such as in schools, various disciplines are taught, including mathematics, which helps students think logically, analytically, and solve problems. Mathematics education is expected to help students understand concepts that can be applied in various fields of science and real-life situations. Students should understand mathematical concepts, recognize relationships between concepts, derive formulas and properties, perform mathematical operations for generalization, gather evidence or explain ideas and mathematical statements, solve problems, use mathematics to communicate ideas, explain situations or problems, and appreciate the importance of mathematics in their lives. Conceptual understanding represents the lowest level of the cognitive domain and is a crucial learning objective as it provides the understanding that the lessons taught are not merely about mathematics. The conceptual understanding of mathematics among the 24 students in class XI at SMK RPI Jakarta resulted in an average score of 76.9. This indicates that the majority of students have a good understanding of the concepts, although some still require improvement..

Education is the foundation for developing high-quality human resources. Students' academic success is influenced by internal factors, such as study habits, and external factors, such as social support. Study habits include time management, reading, and structured learning strategies, while social support involves attention, recognition, and assistance from family, friends, and the academic environment. This study aims to analyze the influence of study habits and social support on the academic achievement of students at Universitas PGRI Wiranegara. A quantitative research method with a causal-comparative design was employed. A sample of 93 active students from the 2021-2023 cohorts was selected using stratified random sampling.

The results revealed that study habits and social support simultaneously contributed significantly to academic achievement. Study habits had a greater impact compared to social support. Social support creates a conducive learning environment, strengthens motivation, and enhances students' comfort in completing academic tasks. However, structured and disciplined study habits remain the key to academic success. These findings underscore the importance of developing effective study habits, such as time management and the use of effective learning methods, alongside strengthening social support to achieve optimal academic outcomes. Collaborative efforts between individuals, families, and educational institutions are essential.
