The aim of this research is to determine the use of video application learning media in increasing student interest in learning at MIN 7 Nganjuk. The results of the research show that the implementation of the use of Video Application Learning Media at MIN 7 Nganjuk involves planning, implementation and evaluation. Initial, initial, and final activities are the beginning of the implementation process. The learning process then takes the form of an animated video based on the learning material and equipped with cartoon images, sound and writing. Compared to before using animated learning videos, learning with these videos will be better and run more smoothly. Increasing students' interest in learning by using animated videos in learning shows that students respond more quickly to the material taught by the teacher.

We understand that learning media is currently developing rapidly, but due to the limitations of SDN 1 Sukadana, class teachers at the school must be very clever in utilizing the facilities around the school to make learning more interesting. However, not all teachers are able to utilize the facilities around the school for the teaching and learning process and they tend to never be used in classroom learning.The author experienced the learning process by tryingseveral existing methods. Learning lacks enthusiasm in learning, some chat, daydream and remain silent. From the formative test carried out by the author at the end of the lesson, the results can be seen. The majority (70%) of students got a score below the specified KKM, namely 70.Researchers offer alternative problem solving by implementing learning using environmental media around the school. It is hoped that by not always being in class and seeing the environment around them, students will not feel bored and fed up with the media they have been using so far.After going through research carried out in 2 cycles of classroom action, there was an increase in attention to learning following improved learning using environmental media in the science subject material on the characteristics and needs of living things by 42.5%, namely before the research it was 50% and after the second cycle. There was research on learning achievement after taking part in learning improvement action research using environmental media in the science subject material on the characteristics and needs of living things, amounting to 67%. Before the research there were 4 students (20% who got a score of 65 and after the research this increased to 19 students 95%)

The digital revolution has fundamentally changed the educational paradigm, influencing the way of learning, teaching and interacting in the educational environment. In responding to the challenges and opportunities presented by this technological era, the concept of "Freedom to Learn" emerged as an approach that empowers students to be active and independent in the learning process. This article discusses how the Merdeka Belajar approach can increase students' competitiveness in the technological era by combining the potential of the digital revolution in education. In the initial stage, the article introduces the concept of Merdeka Belajar which places students at the center of the learning process. By giving students the freedom to choose the time, method and learning materials according to their interests and abilities, this approach aims to increase students' motivation, creativity and participation in learning. Next, the article discusses the use of technology in education, including e-learning, learning videos, online learning platforms and educational applications. The use of this technology allows students to access various learning resources more easily, expand the range of knowledge, and increase learning efficiency. Technology integration is key in supporting the implementation of the Merdeka curriculum and providing an interactive and interesting learning experience for students. In addition, the article highlights the importance of developing digital literacy abilities, technological skills, and an understanding of digital ethics for students in an era of ever-developing technology. Merdeka Belajar plays an important role in helping students hone these skills, so they can be better prepared to face the challenges of the digital world. The article also examines the challenges and obstacles in combining Merdeka Belajar with technology, such as limited access to technology, lack of training for teachers, and concerns about data security . Solutions and strategies to overcome this obstacle are also discussed in the article. In its conclusion, the article underlines the importance of adopting the Independent Learning concept integrated with technology to bring innovation in education. This approach can improve the quality and relevance of learning, prepare students to face the challenges of the technological era, and increase their competitiveness in facing an increasingly digital future.    

This research is about the design and development of interactive multimedia to introduce types of businesses and economic activities. This research is motivated by the problem of learning media which at the moment is still fixated on teachers and books. Another problem is the lack of knowledge and ability of teachers in introducing types of businesses and economic activities and the condition of students who have a great interest in using digital technology-based learning media. Thus, this research aims to create an Interactive Multimedia as a facilitator for students in learning the material of business types and economic activities.  This research uses the Design and Development (D&D) research model, with Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE) research procedures. This research involved experts and users. The results of the assessment from the expert's point of view for the feasibility of interactive multimedia is very feasible to be implemented in learning.
