The performance of equipment, especially in sub-district areas, is a strategic issue because improving bureaucratic performance has broad implications. A study of the performance of local governments, especially those involved in providing public services, has strategic value. Information regarding bureaucratic performance and the factors that shape bureaucratic performance is of course important to know so that policies to improve bureaucratic performance can be formulated. By improving performance, it is hoped that it can improve the level of public trust in the government. Furthermore, to analyze device performance requires some kind of performance measurement device based on balanced results to measure success in meeting goals and objectives. Therefore, a number of indicators are needed to assess performance. Performance measurement is a useful tool in efforts to achieve goals. Through performance measurement, an assessment process can be carried out regarding the achievement of predetermined goals and performance measurement can provide an objective assessment in making management decisions. Apart from that, through performance measurement, the success of a government agency can be seen from the agency's capabilities, based on the resources it manages in accordance with the plans that have been prepared.

Education is a conscious effort that is held to explore and develop human capabilities so that a transformation occurs, both in terms of knowledge, behavior, or norms that have been set. Islamic education is different from other education because its size does not only look good or bad. Islamic education must be based on the Koran, which in Islam functions as the main source of law. In addition, Islamic education must also be based on the hadith. The final achievement is that humans have skills in aspects of education that are in harmony with these two main sources of law. So, the final goal is not just to change behavior, or thinking power, but everything must be in tune with the guidance of the Koran and Hadith. Educational and teaching activities can achieve success if supported by good components. Among the main components is the method. That is the way that must be taken by a teacher in educating his soul so as to achieve goals that are in line with the guidance of the Qur'an and Sunnah. The use of appropriate methods will largely determine the outcome of the education and teaching process. Thus, educators must be skilled at choosing and using methods to match the material and teaching material. Not to forget, as educators need to pay attention to several principles in the use of methos,so that teaching methods will lead to successful teaching    

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) in collecting hotel taxes in Dumai City. Using a qualitative approach with a case study method, this study explores the factors influencing the effectiveness of tax collection and the obstacles encountered. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation, which were then analyzed using thematic analysis. The results indicate that although the objectives of tax collection have been clearly defined and provide benefits for regional development, several obstacles still hinder the achievement of the expected targets. The main obstacles include a lack of coordination between relevant parties, immature planning, and policies that are not yet fully effective. In addition, bad debts on hotel taxes are a major challenge that affects the effectiveness of tax collection. This study also found that a broad socialization strategy and the provision of adequate infrastructure have helped increase taxpayer awareness and compliance. However, supervision and control need to be improved to prevent irregularities and ensure taxpayer compliance. By improving coordination, more detailed planning, data-driven policies, more intensive education, the use of information technology, and stricter supervision, it is hoped that the effectiveness of hotel tax collection can be significantly improved. This research provides an important contribution to the Dumai City Bapenda and other local governments in their efforts to improve the effectiveness of regional tax collection. It is hoped that the recommendations provided can be implemented to overcome existing obstacles and increase regional original income (PAD) in a sustainable manner.

This research aims to describe the application of the Student Team Achievement Division (STAD) learning model in improving the learning outcomes of class XI-4 students at SMA Negeri 6 Surabaya, especially on the subject of vectors. The background to this research is strengthened by the fact that motivation to learn mathematics tends to be low, especially when studying complex material such as vectors. This is supported by initial observations which show that students often have difficulty understanding these concepts, which is reflected in the low learning outcomes, with a percentage of only 73%, and classical completeness of only 40%. This research is classroom action research carried out in two cycles. The research subjects consisted of 36 students. Data is collected through tests and observations. Data analysis was carried out using qualitative and quantitative descriptive techniques. The results in cycle 1 showed a significant improvement, with learning outcomes reaching 97% and classical completion increasing to 94%. In cycle 2, learning outcomes reached 98% and classical completion reached 100%. Thus, it can be concluded that the application of the STAD learning model is effective in improving the learning outcomes of class XI-4 students at SMA Negeri 6 Surabaya.
