This study aims to examine the implementation of innovative learning strategies in improving the literacy skills of first-grade elementary school students in the subject of Indonesian language. Early literacy serves as a crucial foundation for students’ academic development; however, many lower-grade students have not yet reached the minimum standards in reading and writing. To address this challenge, innovative learning strategies such as shared reading, storytelling, the use of visual and digital media, as well as contextual and simple project-based approaches were employed. This research utilized a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method over two cycles, involving 20 first-grade students. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and literacy skill assessments. The findings showed a significant improvement in students’ reading, writing, listening, and speaking abilities. The learning process became more enjoyable, participatory, and suited to the cognitive developmental stage of young children. In addition, students' motivation and confidence in using language also increased. The teacher’s role as a facilitator and instructional designer was essential in ensuring the success of these strategies. Therefore, innovative learning strategies have proven effective in enhancing the literacy skills of first-grade students and are recommended for broader implementation.

Indonesia is a country rich in useful biodiversity, such as red galangal (Alpinia purpurata K.Schum). The antibacterial and antifungal activity of the compounds isolated from the red galangal rhizome is the beginning of a new innovation to implement the concept on plants. The content of 1,8 sineol and eugenol in it makes red galangal rhizome can be used as a fungicide on lettuce plants. The widespread use of chemical-based pesticides can harm farmers and the environment with repeated exposure and over a long period of time. So biofungicide innovation is needed that can support the concept of Green Chemistry. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of red galangal rhizome extract as a fungicide on lettuce plants, as well as to analyze and determine under what conditions the fungicide from red galangal rhizome extract is optimal in eradicating Rhizoctonia Solani fungus on lettuce plants. This research was conducted experimentally using a completely randomized design (CRD) with 10 treatments. All data were tested for normality followed by homogeneity test and all data were found to be normally distributed and homogeneous. Data were analyzed with parametric statistical tests using one-way ANOVA tests and further tests using Tukey with an error rate of 10% to determine whether there was an effect of the treatment tested on the material. The results of this study indicate that red galangal rhizome extract is effective in eradicating Rhizoctonia Solani fungus on lettuce plants with an optimum concentration of 50%.

This is an analysis using development theory related to Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka's campaign in the 2024 presidential election which uses Keritis Discourse Analysis, based on a linear view of economic growth which is based on modernization theory by taking four superior work programs. Government digitalization in Indonesia is considered a solution to increase the efficiency of public services, but challenges such as uneven development and limited human resources need to be overcome. Meanwhile, the plan to move the capital city by the Jokowi government and Prabowo's support shows a commitment to infrastructure development, but requires careful planning and serious handling of social, economic and environmental impacts. The maneuvers used by Prabowo emphasize strategic infrastructure development and improving the quality of human resources, while Gibran focuses on local economic empowerment and economic independence.
