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.

Education is an important place for students to develop their potential based on their intelligence. Multiple intelligences offer an approach that considers the various potentials of students in the learning process. SD Islamiyah, as an educational institution with a vision to produce intelligent and creative generations, faces challenges in delivering learning that meets the needs of students. To address this issue, a system is needed that can analyze and group students based on their intelligence levels using the clustering method. This study is inspired by the application of data mining in the educational context, particularly in adapting the clustering method as applied in other related research. Previous research has demonstrated the success of the clustering method in accurately grouping data, as seen in studies related to flood warnings and cesarean operations. By applying a similar approach, this research aims to assist SD Islamiyah in identifying and grouping students based on their potential, thereby facilitating a more effective learning process tailored to the individual needs of students. The results of this study are expected to contribute positively to improving the quality of education at SD Islamiyah and provide a foundation for the development of more advanced decision support systems in the future

Elementary school learning is often an important context in understanding the role of self-esteem in preventing bullying. In situations where direct interaction is limited, the role of self-esteem is key in shaping students' responses to social pressures such as bullying. This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) method to explore how self-esteem influences and can be used to prevent bullying at the elementary school level. This article presents an in-depth literature review related to the role of self-esteem in preventing bullying in elementary school environments. By analyzing eight related articles, this study identified that high self-esteem acts as a significant protective factor against the tendency to become victims of bullying. On the other hand, children with low self-esteem tend to be more vulnerable to bullying behavior. The findings of this study highlight that self-esteem plays an important role in reducing bullying behavior among elementary school students. The selected articles suggest that increasing self-esteem can reduce the likelihood of bullying and help students cope with potentially detrimental social pressures.

This flayer media will be used in teaching language error analysis to find out the errors contained in the flayer as a promotion that is still relied on today. Language error analysis is used by language teachers to collect samples of errors, identify the errors contained in the samples, explain the errors, classify the errors, and evaluate the level of seriousness of the errors. The aim of this research is to find out how to analyze language errors and what language should actually be used in media flayers during promotions. This type of research is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. This research was carried out on seventh semester students of the PBSI UMN Al Washliyah Study Program. The population in this research was all 18 PBSI semester VII students. The sampling technique used in this research is a non-probability sampling technique. Media Flayer in language error analysis learning is considered effective for use in learning activities. Apart from being easy to access, media flayer also makes it easier for students to analyze language errors because just by using a mobile phone they can analyze language errors without having to go to the place they are going to.  This research follow-up creates a comprehensive workflow from research results to real implementation and continuous improvement.

This study was conducted at SD Muhammadiyah Sei Cabang, a private school in Langkat Regency, which still uses manual examination methods with identical questions for all students. This method is considered ineffective because it allows students to cheat, leading to exam results that do not accurately reflect their abilities. To address this issue, the study developed a web-based examination system using the Linear Congruent Method (LCM) to generate randomized question numbers. With LCM, each student receives a different set of question numbers, making the exam process more effective and fair. The system was built using PHP programming language and MySQL database, enabling efficient data storage and processing. The implementation of this system resulted in improved accuracy in assessment and reduced cheating potential during exams at the school.

The coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the evolution of education towards 21st-century learning in alignment with the Industry 4.0 era.

and sustainability of natural potential so that marine resources are maintained and can be used by the next generation. Matara Village is a coastal area in Merauke, south papua South Papua Province which has abundant marine potential. One of them is shrimp which is a leading commodity in this village. The use of shrimp is still limited to selling them whole. In the process, the shrimp are sold at cheap prices to agents and often the small shrimp are not sold so they are wasted which ultimately causes an unpleasant smell on the beach. Apart from that, fishermen in Matara Village generally live in the lower middle economic strata. The abundance of marine products has not been processed optimally. In fact, if the Blue Economy is implemented optimally, it can increase the income of the people there. Training and assistance in making Blue Economy products in the form of shrimp nuggets was provided to the women of Matara Village. as an effort to increase the economic value of shrimp, increase the variety of healthy foods that are contemporary and popular with all groups, overcome waste caused by unsold small shrimp, and can increase income variations This activity was carried out by Musamus University KKN lecturers and students for 1 month. This activity was carried out by observing the community, lectures about the importance of implementing the Blue Economy concept in coastal areas, demonstrations and assistance in making shrimp nuggets, and surveying community satisfaction. This activity was responded very well by the community and said that assistance should be carried out in the manufacture of Blue Economy products in the future
