The purpose of this study was to understand the effect of using Canva-based learning media on the creativity of eleventh-grade students in economics. The background of this study stems from the low level of student learning creativity caused by the minimal use of innovative and engaging media in the learning process. Creativity is an important aspect in economics learning because it encourages students to think critically, create solutions, and understand abstract concepts more contextually. Static and monotonous learning media such as blackboards and textbooks often do not sufficiently stimulate student interest and participation. Therefore, a more interactive and visual approach is needed, one of which is using Canva. Canva is an online graphic design platform that allows teachers and students to easily create presentations, infographics, and other visual materials. Using Canva in learning can provide a more enjoyable learning experience and motivate students to be actively involved. This study used a quantitative method with a one-group pretest-posttest pre-experimental design. Data analysis was carried out by comparing creativity scores before and after treatment. Student creativity was measured using a test instrument that included aspects of fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The study subjects were 34 11th-grade students at SMAN 1 Tulungagung. The results showed a significant difference in scores between the pretest and posttest results, indicating that the use of Canva-based learning media had a positive impact on increasing student creativity. Students became more active in expressing ideas, more daring to experiment with concepts, and better able to present learning outcomes visually and attractively. These findings support constructivism theory, which states that effective learning occurs when students actively construct knowledge through meaningful experiences.

This study analyzes Red Bull advertisements as a form of visual propaganda that effectively constructs a brand image associated with extreme sports, bravery, and extraordinary achievement. The background of this research lies in the phenomenon of the increasing prevalence of visual content in modern marketing strategies, which not only sell products but also embed ideologies and social identities. Red Bull was selected as the object of study due to its consistent use of visual elements rich in symbolic and connotative meaning. This research employs a qualitative approach using Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis method, along with theories of visual propaganda and social identity. The findings reveal that Red Bull communicates its message not merely through images and slogans, but also through the construction of deep connotative meanings. The slogan “Red Bull Gives You Wings” instills a sense of hope in surpassing one's limits, while the use of extreme sports figures as testimonials reinforces the product's image as a symbol of high performance. These advertisements create a modern myth in which Red Bull is associated with courage and freedom, transforming it from a mere energy drink into a lifestyle identity. In the context of social identity, consumers are not only purchasing a product but also affirming themselves as members of an adventurous, active, and daring community. Thus, Red Bull successfully builds brand loyalty through a strong and symbolic visual narrative. This research emphasizes that today’s advertisements are inseparable from ideological functions and the social constructions they visually shape.  

This study aims to examine the effect of time flexibility in the implementation of online-based learning on student academic performance in the Management Study Program, State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UINSU). This study adopts a quantitative approach as the main method. Data collection instruments in the form of questionnaires were distributed to active students as respondents. The data obtained were then analyzed using simple linear regression techniques to illustrate the relationship between the level of flexibility of study time and student academic achievement. The results of the analysis show that the flexibility of study time has no significant effect on student learning outcomes, with a significance value of 0.315 and a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.027. This finding indicates that flexibility of study time is not enough to improve learning outcomes without being supported by time management skills, discipline, and learning independence. Therefore, effective online learning strategies need to be accompanied by soft skills training so that learning outcomes can be optimized. Future research is expected to integrate mediating variables such as self-regulated learning, learning motivation, and quality of learning environment to gain a deeper understanding of the determinants in the context of online learning.

The findings highlight the need for sustainable digital education models that are inclusive, adaptive, and supportive of students' developmental needs in the post-pandemic era.

Students are the next generation of the nation and need to be equipped with information or news that is up-to-date and contains positive and motivating values. This can be influenced by the use of good and correct language in providing information that can be accounted for its truth. The lack of critical reading literacy can affect the application of values ​​and mindsets of each individual. The development of increasingly sophisticated technology also has positive and negative impacts, especially in the use of inappropriate language that has an impact on misunderstandings related to the intent and purpose of information. In addition, the news presented does not match the elements of the news text, causing chaos, misunderstanding, and the emergence of hoax news that is easily spread to the public. This study aims to help students analyze the structure and language that is good and correct in the news text used as a learning resource. This study is also expected to provide both theoretical and practical benefits. Theoretically, the results of this study can be one of the literature on news texts that contain linguistic analysis found in online newspaper media. In addition, this study does not only discuss language, but also provides information or understanding regarding the characteristics of each online newspaper media that can be considered as a learning resource in schools. Practically, the results of this study are expected to be useful for teachers to understand and meet students' needs according to the competencies to be achieved in the learning process. In addition, the results of this study are expected to prevent language errors, especially in news texts so that the information conveyed can be well received by the public, especially students.

Islamic Religious Education and Character Education learning has an important role in shaping students' character and morals. However, the low level of student learning activity is still a challenge in the learning process. This is caused by the use of conventional learning methods that are less interesting and interactive, so that students tend to be passive. As an alternative, digital media such as Quizizz media offers a more innovative and enjoyable learning approach to increase student active participation. This study aims to describe how the use of Quizizz media can (1) increase student learning activity in group discussions, (2) increase learning activity in daring to ask questions, and (3) increase student participation in answering questions in Islamic religious education learning in class VIII of SMP Negeri 1 Jenangan Ponorogo. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with interview, observation, and documentation techniques. Data were analyzed using the Milles and Huberman techniques, namely data collection, reduction, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show that the use of Quizizz media (1) increases student activity in group discussions with an interactive and fun atmosphere, (2) encourages students to be more confident in asking questions with direct feedback that helps them understand the material, (3) can increase students' responses in answering questions, train focus, speed of thinking and understanding through a scoring system and time limits.

This study aims to analyze the impact of online learning on students' learning independence at the secondary school level. The research is motivated by the significant shift in the education system due to the pandemic, which required students to adapt to technology-based distance learning. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, utilizing data collection techniques such as observation, interviews, and documentation, supported by quantitative questionnaires from previous studies. The findings indicate that online learning has both positive and negative effects on students' learning independence. Positive impacts include increased student responsibility in completing assignments, ease of accessing learning materials anytime and anywhere, and enhanced parental involvement in supporting their children's learning at home. However, negative effects were also identified, such as students' tendency to engage excessively in gaming, reduced effectiveness of the learning process, and delays in task submission due to workload accumulation. Regression analysis results show a significant influence between online learning and learning independence, although the effect is moderate to low in some cases. Factors such as learning motivation, self-efficacy, and the support of the online learning environment play crucial roles in shaping student independence. The study recommends collaboration among government, schools, teachers, parents, and the wider community to improve the quality and quantity of online learning facilities, as well as more varied learning strategies to optimally support the development of students' learning independence.
