This research is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles. The subjects were 24 students of class XII TM 2 of the Mechanical Engineering Expertise Program at Semen Padang Vocational School in the odd semester of the 2025/2026 academic year. Data collection was carried out through learning activity observation sheets, practical assessment sheets, and multiple-choice tests to measure students' cognitive learning outcomes. The implementation of Creative Products and Entrepreneurship learning at Semen Padang Vocational School was previously teacher-centered. Students tended to be passive listeners during the learning process, which led to low participation, minimal interaction, and a lack of understanding of the material. As a result, most students were unable to achieve the Minimum Completion Standards (SKM). Based on this, the Jigsaw Cooperative learning model is considered suitable for application in Creative Products and Entrepreneurship learning, because it is able to create a student-centered learning atmosphere and encourage active involvement and cooperation between students. The results of the study prove that the application of the Jigsaw Cooperative learning model is effective in improving student learning outcomes. This is based on the average student learning outcomes in cycle 1 of 75.2, where 17 students were declared complete. In cycle II, the average student learning outcomes were 85.2 with 21 students declared complete. The significant improvement in cycle II indicates that the Jigsaw Cooperative Learning model is not only effective in improving cognitive learning outcomes but also able to improve the quality of interactions between students in the learning process. Students become more active in discussions, disseminating information, and are responsible for understanding the material they are learning and sharing with their groups.

Lastly, teachers function as class managers, creating an enjoyable learning environment and engaging activities that help increase children's interest in learning and improve their literacy skills.

The research entitled "Development of Pantun Card Media to Improve Pantun Writing Skills of Grade VII Students of SMP Negeri 4 Percut Sei Tuan" was motivated by the low ability of students in writing pantun due to a lack of understanding of pantun structure and limited interesting learning media. The method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE development model through the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Data were obtained through validation by media experts, material experts, and language experts, teacher and student response questionnaires, and pretest and posttest tests in the experimental and control classes. The validation results showed that the pantun card media was included in the "very valid" category with a percentage score of 92% from media experts, 92% from language experts, and 100% from material experts with an average of 94.67%, as well as practicality tests by teachers of 92% and 89.85% from students which indicated that this media was very suitable for use and well received. The effectiveness test showed a significant increase in the ability to write pantun in the experimental class compared to the control class with an N-Gain score of 57.83%, so that the pantun card media is quite effective to be used as an innovative alternative in learning Indonesian, especially the material for writing pantun.

Anemia is a global health problem with a high prevalence among adolescents, especially girls, due to increased iron requirements, rapid growth, and menstruation. This condition impacts health, concentration, and quality of life. Hemoglobin, as an indicator of anemia, plays a crucial role in oxygen transport, so adolescents' understanding of its function is crucial. This activity aims to increase adolescents' understanding of the role of hemoglobin and anemia prevention through health education at SMK Negeri 10 Garut. The method used was a participatory approach through an initial questionnaire, material delivery, discussion, and post-education evaluation. The results showed an increase in students' knowledge about anemia and hemoglobin.

This study examines the relationship between material mastery and draping practice outcomes among students in the Family Welfare Vocational Education (PVKK) Fashion Design Study Program at PGRI Adi Buana University, Surabaya. Draping, as a technique for making patterns directly on a mannequin or the human body, is an important course in fashion design synchronization. This technique allows students to develop creativity, understand the proportions, shapes, and volumes of fabric, and produce unique works that suit the curves of the body. This study used a quantitative approach by collecting data from 60 student respondents from the 2021 and 2022 intakes through questionnaires and documentation. The variables studied were draping material mastery (independent variable) and draping practice outcomes (dependent variable). The analysis results showed a significant and positive relationship between material mastery and draping practice outcomes. The better the material mastery, the better the students' draping practice outcomes. This emphasizes that a strong theoretical understanding is an important foundation for practical skills, and learning theory and practice must be balanced to optimally improve the quality of student work. These findings have important implications for curriculum development and learning methods in the PVKK Fashion Design Study Program. To support the achievement of optimal practical results, teaching strategies are needed that integrate theory and practice in a more interactive and applicable way. For example, the use of video tutorial-based learning media, digital draping simulations, or project-based learning can strengthen students' understanding while improving their technical skills. Furthermore, increasing the intensity of practice with direct feedback from lecturers has also proven effective in accelerating technical mastery. With a holistic and adaptive learning approach, vocational education institutions can produce graduates who are not only technically competent but also competent.

Despite network challenges, students seek solutions by relocating or using the campus network. They tend to choose reliable learning sources, reflecting strong digital literacy skills. Overall, the use of the internet enhances students' motivation and academic performance, leading to improved outcomes

Digital transformation in education demands a fundamental shift in the role of teachers from traditional instructors to modern learning facilitators who are adaptive, creative, innovative, and responsive to the latest technological developments. This research aims to explore in depth the multidimensional role of economics teachers in optimizing visual learning media to increase students' interest in learning in the digital era, especially at SMAN 1 Lewolema in the 2024/2025 academic year. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study involved one economics teacher and 23 students of class X through observation, interviews, and comprehensive documentation. The results show that teachers play the role of innovative learning designers, interactive facilitators who encourage active participation, motivators who arouse the spirit of learning, and innovators who make effective use of visual media. The integration of visual learning media is carried out with a contextual and interactive approach, so that it is able to transform the student learning experience holistically. The positive impacts identified include an increase in the affective dimension through a sense of pleasure, a cognitive dimension through a better understanding of the material, and a conative dimension through increased focus, interest, and motivation of students to learn. However, the implementation of the use of visual learning media cannot be separated from various challenges. Obstacles that arise include the limitations of technology infrastructure in schools, the gap in teachers' digital competencies, and the diversity of students' psychological characteristics that affect acceptance of new methods. This research makes a theoretical contribution to understanding the dynamics of educational technology integration in Indonesia, as well as offering a practical blueprint for schools with limited resources.
