The aim of this research is to explore the effectiveness of using Augmented Reality (AR) technology as an innovative medium in learning Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) to increase elementary school students' awareness and understanding of preserving natural resources. This research uses a quasi-experimental research method with a pretest-posttest control group design. The research subjects were fifth grade students at an elementary school in Indonesia, who were divided into an experimental group that used AR media and a control group that used conventional learning media. The research results show that the use of AR media significantly increases students' understanding of the concept of preserving natural resources compared to traditional learning methods. In addition, students in the experimental group showed higher levels of learning motivation as well as active participation in class discussions. The implication of this research is that AR technology can be an effective and interesting learning tool in teaching complex environmental topics. The use of AR not only helps students understand concepts visually and interactively, but also motivates them to be more actively involved in efforts to conserve natural resources. The results of this research provide a basis for the development of technology-based learning media that can be applied in various educational contexts, especially to support sustainable education at the elementary school level.

Indonesia is an agricultural country with great potential in the agricultural sector, both as a source of livelihood and as an economic driver. This sector has an important function in food security, improving farmers' welfare, and preserving the environment. Given Indonesia's regional diversity, it is important to develop policies that suit the agricultural characteristics of each region. This research uses the clustering method, a technique that groups data based on similar characteristics so that objects in one group (cluster) have high similarities, while between clusters they are different. This research applies the clustering method to group provinces in Indonesia based on agricultural sector factors in 2023, using hierarchical and non-hierarchical techniques. The results show that the optimum clusters obtained using both single linkage and K-Means formed five optimal clusters. The Java Island cluster shows high productivity, while Riau, East Kalimantan and North Kalimantan have quite high productivity with minimal labor. The largest clusters have a lot of unmanaged land, increasing employment opportunities. Significant variables influence grouping.
