Students' understanding of the concept of motion of objects on inclined planes still shows obstacles, especially when applied in real practice. This study aims to see the extent to which students understand the concept through simple experiments and questionnaires. The main focus of the study was on the results of the practicum, where the block slid faster on a smooth plane (an average of 1.25 seconds) than on a rough plane (an average of 1.61 seconds). This time difference reflects the effect of friction on the motion of objects, but some students were unable to explain the difference correctly. This indicates that there are still misconceptions in understanding the concepts of force and motion. Meanwhile, the results of the questionnaire only reinforced that most students felt the need for direct practice to understand this material. Thus, a practice-based learning approach is very important to strengthen students' conceptual understanding in Basic Physics courses.
 

Students in the Information Systems Program at UIN Sumatera Utara tend to have irregular eating patterns with high consumption of fast food. This habit contributes to various health problems such as digestive disorders and decreased concentration. This study was conducted to investigate the eating patterns of students in the Information Systems Program at UIN Sumatera Utara and their relationship with their health conditions. Through a quantitative survey of 50 respondents, the results showed that most students eat less than three times a day, with the highest frequency being twice a day (48%). Additionally, the majority of students consume fast food 1–2 times a week (60%). Analysis using the Chi-Square test revealed a significant association between the frequency of fast food consumption and students' health conditions (p < 0.05). Many students experienced health issues such as stomach problems and fatigue related to their unhealthy eating patterns. These findings emphasize the need for nutrition education and the implementation of practical healthy eating patterns to support students' health and academic performance.

The This study uses a descriptive statistical approach to analyze the level of student satisfaction with campus facilities at the State Islamic University of North Sumatra. Data were obtained through an online questionnaire using a simple random sampling method with 36 respondents. The questionnaire covered four categories of facilities: general, technology and accessibility, academic support, and campus and infrastructure. The analysis involved calculating percentage, probability, mathematical expectation, variance, and standard deviation. The results showed that library comfort had the highest satisfaction score (expected = 4.06), while the Wi-Fi connection had the lowest score (expected = 3.06, deviation = 1.39), indicating dissatisfaction and an uneven perception. Other aspects, such as academic guidance by lecturers (expectation = 3.86), toilet facilities (expectation = 3.83), and laboratories (expectation = 3.72), showed good satisfaction levels. These findings provide a strong basis for the campus to improve low-scoring areas and maintain areas that meet student expectations.
