This study aims to review the scope of linguistic research, highlighting the various branches and approaches used in the study of language. Linguistic research is a multidisciplinary field that includes the analysis of language structure, use, and its role in society. In this paper, we discuss some of the main branches of theoretical linguistics, including phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. In addition, we also explore applied linguistics which involves the application of linguistic theory in practical contexts such as language education, translation, and language technology. Interdisciplinary approaches in linguistic research, which combine perspectives from psychology, anthropology, and computer science, are also a major focus of this study. We highlight the importance of appropriate methodology in linguistic research, including qualitative and quantitative methods, as well as the use of modern analytical tools such as linguistic software and natural language processing techniques. The results of this study indicate that a comprehensive understanding of the scope of linguistic research can make a significant contribution to the development of linguistics and its applications in various fields. These findings are expected to provide insights for researchers, practitioners, and educators in designing more effective language studies and teaching programs.      

Students who are intelligent and have good character start from the educational process carried out at school. Character education is very important to shape the personality of students so that they have good character in their lives. Character education is integrated in all subjects, especially in music art subjects. Students are expected to have a strong character through music art learning media. The problem in this study is how to implement character education through music art learning. The purpose of this study is to describe the implementation of character education through music art learning. The benefits of this research consist of theoretical and practical benefits, especially for art education practitioners in schools. This study uses qualitative research methods. The research objective is on the implementation of character education in music art learning. The data collection technique was carried out using observation techniques, interviews and documentation studies. The data validity technique uses data triangulation. The data analysis technique uses qualitative data analysis. The result of this study is that the instillation of the values of Cultural Education and Character of the Nation developed in the learning process of music art is not carried out separately, but these values are incorporated into the learning steps. In practice, the steps to learn music arts based on national character education are contained in certain slogans embraced by the school. The suggestion in this study is that teachers or those responsible for the selection process of regional songs and national songs in music ensemble learning should pay attention to the selection of songs so that they are easier to understand and the cultivation of character education can be achieved properly.

The aim of community service (PKM) is to increase students' financial literacy through training and mentoring by providing Basic Accounting material. The material presented is the basic equation of accounting and financial reports. The form of presenting the material is conveying concepts and followed by practical work on solving case study questions. There is also additional material in the form of an introduction to Spreadsheets/Excel computers (accounting data). The material presented is a suggestion from the service partners considering that students do not fully understand this material in class learning and this material is important for participants, because according to data on accounting learning results for class XII IIS for the odd semester of the 2023/2024 academic year, it has only reached 87%. Participants are class XI students of SMA Negeri 1 Demon Pagong whose address is Jalan Pati Beda, Demon Pagong District, East Flores Regency. Methods for implementing activities include 1) Training, namely presenting material on basic accounting concepts and financial reports. 2) Mentoring, namely assisting participants in completing case study questions based on the concepts that have been presented. 3) Evaluation, namely using an instrument in the form of practice questions on preparing financial reports, then the results are analyzed using qualitative analysis to determine students' financial literacy related to participants' understanding of accounting learning, both in the basics of accounting and financial reports. The results show that the average score obtained by students in preparing financial reports is around 75-85. This indicates that students' understanding of the material and assistance regarding the basics of accounting to financial reports reached 80%. Participants who experience difficulties in preparing financial reports are due to incorrectly calculating the nominal amount in the account because there are too many numbers and the calculations are done manually, they easily forget accounts and their placement mechanisms, they have difficulty identifying the elements included in the financial reports and they lack interest in studying accounting.

This research aims to discuss the application of cognitive learning theory in the learning process in elementary schools. The main focus is on how cognitive approaches can improve students' understanding and skills. The research methods used were literature studies and field observations in several elementary schools. Cognitive learning theory was developed by experts such as Jean Piaget and Jerome Bruner, who emphasized the importance of internal mental processes in understanding information. Piaget described four stages of children's cognitive development, while Bruner emphasized discovery-based learning. The research results show that a cognitive approach to learning can increase learning effectiveness, student motivation, as well as critical and creative thinking abilities. Students taught using cognitive methods show active participation in class activities, increased understanding of the material, and higher academic scores compared to traditional learning methods. Teachers report that this method helps students develop higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills. The practical implications of this research suggest that cognitive learning methods should be widely applied in elementary schools to optimize students' learning potential.

In the era of increasing digitalization, the integration of technology in education is becoming increasingly important. One area that has received a major contribution from technology is mathematics education at the secondary school (SMA) level. The use of mathematics software has become a highly effective tool for teachers and students in understanding complex mathematical concepts, developing computational skills, and solving problems more efficiently and interactively. This article analyzes various literature studies related to the use of mathematics software in high school, with a focus on developing students' computational thinking abilities. Computational thinking (CT) abilities, which were first introduced by Seymour Papert, are important skills that help students in decision making and problem solving. Various studies show that the integration of CT in educational curricula, particularly through teaching programming and the use of mathematical software, can improve students' computing skills. Although there are challenges in implementation, such as lack of infrastructure and teacher training, this study highlights the importance of using technology in mathematics education to create a dynamic, interactive, and relevant learning environment. This research aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of literature studies related to the use of mathematics software in high school and its influence on the development of students' computational thinking skills. By understanding the findings from previous studies, it is hoped that this research can make a significant contribution to designing a more effective mathematics curriculum and provide practical guidance for educators in integrating mathematics software in everyday learning. The results of the analysis show that technology-based interactive learning methods, the use of special software such as Matlab and Geogebra, as well as programming training with languages ​​such as Java and Python, all show positive results in improving students' computing skills. However, there is still a need to improve abstract thinking skills and address variations in computational abilities among students.
