This Classroom Action Research aims to minimize the low activity and mathematics learning outcomes of Binjai 14 Public Middle School students in the matter of the Two-Variable Linear Equation System (SPDLV). The recipients of the action were class VIII 2 students at SMP Negeri 14 Binjai with a total of 32 students. The data collection technique for this action was carried out in a qualitative descriptive way through the cycle stages with two rounds where each round consisted of two meetings. The results of this study are increased activity and student learning outcomes by using the cooperative learning model of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) type. From the results of the initial test data obtained 28 students (87,5%) of 32 students with an average of 50,29%. The results of data analysis in cycle I after the cooperative learning model of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) type showed that the number of students who achieved mastery learning was 25 students (78,12%) out of 32 students with a class average of 75%. In cycle II, 28 students (87,5%) achieved a mastery level with a class average of 80,79%. There was an increase from cycle I to cycle II. Likewise with student activities while learning took place in cycle I, the number of students who had a percentage of activity ≥ 70% classically was 2 students (6.25%) of 32 students and at the end of cycle II it increased to 28 students (87,5%). The classical increase in activity from cycle I to cycle II was 30%. So this study concluded that through the TGT learning model it can increase students' activity and learning outcomes in mathematics.

The existence of communities around conservation areas has an important role for the preservation of Alas Purwo National Park. Buffer villages have a function to maintain the integrity of conservation areas from all forms of disturbances, originating from outside or within the area that can result in changes in the integrity and function of the national park area.

Shallot is a horticultural commodity that has good market prospects because it contains high nutrition and can be used as spices and ingredients for traditional medicine. However, shallot production in Indonesia still often fluctuates and even experiences a shortage in meeting the needs of domestic consumers. To increase shallot production, this can be done through intensification efforts, namely by improving cultivation techniques, such as the use of organic fertilizers, proper fertilization, and the use of superior varieties. This study used a factorial randomized block design consisting of 2 treatment factors, namely factor I, fermented NPK ( F) consisting of 0 ml, 250 ml, 500 ml and 750 ml. Factor II was the variety (V) of the Brebes Bima variety, the Probolinggo variety and the Nganjuk variety. The parameters of plant observation were: plant height (cm) and production per plot (g). The data analysis method was a factorial randomized block design (RBD). The results showed that the application of fermented NPK and the use of varieties had a very significant effect on the parameters of plant height (cm) and production per plot (g).

Diffuser is one of the construction that is able to control the behavior of the fluid. Adverse pressure gradient (APG) causes boundary layer develops rapidly so that it causes separation and Cp becomes low. So that need to evaluating divergence angle of diffuser to delay the separation to get optimization Cp of diffuser. This study uses a numerical method with software Fluent 6.3.26 with k-ω turbulence model of shear stress transport (SST) for evaluate in a symmetric flat-walled diffuser with constant ratio in divergence angle (2θ1) = 8° and usedused the Reynolds number 12.9 x 104. Test section consisted of three parts, namely symmetric diffuser, upstream channels, and downstream channels. The symmetric diffuser has a length (L1) = 500 mm, the upstream channel length (L2) = 500 mm, and the downstream channel has a length (L3) = 1000 mm. The results of the study showed that there is no flow separation on the field at midspan vertical diffuser (2θ1) = 8 °. However, based on the velocity vector visualization, flow separation can be observed at midspan plane horizontal to diffuser (2θ1) = 8 ° indicated the occurrence of separation in the area after the inlet diffuser, ie at x / L1 = 1.4 and x / L1 = 1.6

The impact of carbon emissions as a major cause of climate change has raised concerns and become a challenge for the international community. To reduce emissions, it is necessary to study the carbon footprint of activities in Al-Amin. The planning of Al Amin Living lab and Industrial Park along with the administration in which various activities produce carbon emissions these activities need to be calculated to find out how much the activity contributes to the emissions produced so that negative impacts on the environment can be minimized. Opportunities for PSE-GR Development Areas with the concept of Eco-Tech-Edu Tourism which has an understanding of Circular Economy Education (CED) is still very minimal in North Sumatra, PSE-GR can be a pioneer in spreading this understanding of CED where the integration of economic and educational activities occurs which at the same time helps maintain the preservation of nature. Encouraged by the development of the Independent Learning Curriculum (ILC), it is hoped that PSE-GR can become a place for research, service, and practicum of the UNPAB academic community that increases awareness of the need for nature conservation. Because Green Technology from across fields of science is still very minimally discussed and is still often partially researched, UNPAB can be an example of the integration of fields of science that become practical, dynamic, educational, and economic value innovations. The existence of 20 ha of land owned by the Prof. DR H Kadirun Yahya Foundation, it is hoped that UNPAB can develop a Living lab ecosystem at least on 10 ha of land. PSE-GR is not expected to be as exclusive as tourist areas in general, with the concept of CED, PSE-GR will not only help become an income generator & source of educational land for the academic community but also help the welfare of the village and the surrounding community. Carbon footprint studies are carried out in 3 scopes according to The Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol), namely emissions from sources owned or directly controlled by the faculty, indirect emissions from electricity consumption, and other indirect emissions (WRI and WBSCD, 2004). Carbon footprint emissions from all three scopes are calculated based on methods from the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) for the national greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory.
