This research is motivated by the low learning outcomes of students and the lack of student learning outcomes in learning and the use of learning methods that are less influential in improving student learning outcomes in paying attention to the material presented by the teacher. This study aims to determine and describe how efforts to improve the learning outcomes of fourth-grade students at SDK WESOER in the science subject about Energy and its changes by using the Experimental Method. This research is a classroom action research (CAR), the data collection instruments used are observation, interviews, documentation, and tests. This research consists of 2 cycles, each cycle consisting of 1 meeting. Each cycle consists of the planning, observation, implementation, and reflection stages. The results of the study indicate that the use of the experimental method can improve student learning outcomes on the sub-theme of energy and its changes in fourth grade at SDK Wesoer. Before conducting the research, researchers conducted observations. During the learning process, the teacher did not use the experimental method on the material of energy and its changes, so from 25 students only 8 students got a complete score reaching the KKM with a percentage of 32%, and 17 students got an incomplete score not reaching the KKM with a percentage of 68%. After conducting research using the experimental method on energy and its transformations, in Cycle I, 14 students achieved a passing grade and achieved the Minimum Completion Minimum (KKM) with a percentage of 56%, while 11 students received an incomplete grade, failing to achieve the KKM with a percentage of 44%. In Cycle II, the learning outcomes improved further, with 20 students achieving a passing grade with a percentage of 80%, and 5 students receiving an incomplete grade with a percentage of 20%.

Exclusive breastfeeding coverage remains a challenge in several areas, including Bojongkerta Village, within the Cipaku Community Health Center (Puskesmas) jurisdiction, South Bogor District, Bogor City. Lack of knowledge, high levels of stress during breastfeeding, and minimal family support are often major obstacles to successful exclusive breastfeeding. One approach that can be applied to address these issues is hypnobreastfeeding, a relaxation technique combined with positive affirmations to support mothers' readiness to breastfeed. The objective of this activity is to increase the capacity of breastfeeding mothers in exclusive breastfeeding through community-based hypnobreastfeeding training, which also involves Posyandu RW 1 cadres as the main supporting partners of the activity. The method used in this activity involves three stages: first, education and training in hypnobreastfeeding techniques for breastfeeding mothers; second, practical mentoring by lecturers involving students from the Midwifery Diploma Three Program at Ummi University Bogor; and third, evaluation of results through knowledge measurement and observation of breastfeeding practices. A total of 10 breastfeeding mothers and 4 Posyandu cadres participated in this activity. The evaluation results showed an increase in understanding of the benefits of exclusive breastfeeding and a positive change in attitudes towards breastfeeding practices. Furthermore, the active involvement of Posyandu cadres is expected to strengthen ongoing support at the community level. In conclusion, the hypnobreastfeeding training had a positive impact on empowering breastfeeding mothers and strengthening the role of Posyandu cadres as supporters of the exclusive breastfeeding program at the community level. This program also has the potential to expand the reach of education about exclusive breastfeeding and increase the success of sustainable exclusive breastfeeding in the community.

This research is motivated by the low ability to write short stories in students, which is thought to be caused by the use of learning methods and media that are less varied and have not been able to stimulate students' imagination and creativity optimally. To overcome this problem, the application of innovative learning strategies is needed, one of which is the use of storyboard techniques. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of storyboard techniques on the ability to write short stories of class X students of SMK Tritech Informatika Medan. The method used in this study is a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design, specifically the Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The sample in this study amounted to 42 students who were divided into two groups, namely the experimental group who were given treatment using the storyboard technique and the control group who used conventional methods. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, interviews, short story writing tests, and documentation. The data obtained were analyzed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, and t-tests (independent samples t-test). The results showed that there was a significant difference between the posttest scores of the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group experienced an average score increase of 18.81 points, while the control group only increased by 9.76 points. The t-test results showed a t-value of 2.677 and a significance level of p = 0.011 (p < 0.05), indicating that the storyboard technique had a significant effect on students' short story writing skills. Therefore, it can be concluded that the use of the storyboard technique is effective in improving students' creative writing skills. The implication of this finding is that the storyboard technique can be used as an alternative, creative and innovative learning strategy in writing instruction at the Vocational High School (SMK) level.

This study aims to identify and measure the influence of customer relationships, customer satisfaction, and brand image on customer loyalty at Ryandini’s Sweet Chicken Claw business, located in Sei Sijenggi Village, Hamlet III, Perbaungan District, Serdang Bedagai Regency. A quantitative research method was employed, with data collected through observation, documentation, and questionnaires. The questionnaires used a Likert scale as a measurement tool to assess respondents’ opinions accurately. Data analysis was conducted using several stages, including validity and reliability tests, classical assumption testing, and multiple linear regression analysis, processed through SPSS version 22. These methods were used to ensure the validity of the instrument and the consistency of the findings. The research findings demonstrate that customer relationships have a significant and positive effect on customer loyalty. Customers who feel connected and valued by the business are more likely to remain loyal. Likewise, customer satisfaction—reflecting the extent to which customers' expectations are met or exceeded—has a strong and positive influence on loyalty. In addition, the brand image of the business, which encompasses customer perceptions and reputation of the product, also significantly influences loyalty in a positive direction. Furthermore, the simultaneous analysis of customer relationships, customer satisfaction, and brand image shows that all three variables jointly have a significant and positive impact on customer loyalty. This means that enhancing these three factors can strengthen customer retention and long-term commitment. These results provide valuable insights for small business owners in the food and beverage industry. Focusing on building strong relationships with customers, consistently delivering satisfaction, and maintaining a positive brand image are essential strategies to increase loyalty. For Ryandini’s Sweet Chicken Claw and similar businesses, these findings offer practical guidance for developing customer-centered marketing strategies in an increasingly competitive market.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of Canva and Nearpod digital platforms in supporting the strengthening of students' character at the elementary school level.

The digital design of cultural museums with an interactive and educational approach in Indramayu Regency aims to present a modern, innovative, and interesting cultural preservation space. This concept was born from the urgent need for a means that are able to preserve, document, and promote local cultural wealth in the midst of the rapid flow of globalization. The lack of cultural literacy among the public, especially the younger generation, as well as the loss of historical objects due to inadequate storage facilities, are the main reasons for the importance of developing digital-based museums. Through an interactive approach, visitors can actively engage with cultural collections using advanced technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and interactive multimedia. This technology provides an immersive, engaging, and personalized learning experience, so that visitors not only see, but also virtually experience the richness of the culture on display. Meanwhile, the educational approach is designed to create an informative, collaborative, and fun learning environment, which is highly relevant for learners and the younger generation as the successors of cultural preservation. Indramayu Regency, known for its long history, maritime traditions, and distinctive coastal culture, has great potential to become a center for cultural education. This digital museum will utilize digital technology to document cultural narratives in depth, so that it can be accessed not only by local people, but also national and international tourists. With its strategic location in the city center, the presence of this museum is expected to encourage the participation of the public and tourists in understanding, appreciating, and preserving the local culture of Indramayu. Apart from being an educational facility, this museum is expected to be able to become a driver of local tourism that makes a positive contribution to the economy of the surrounding community. Digital cultural museums are not only a place for preservation, but also a symbol of a strong regional identity, reflecting the synergy between technological innovation and commitment to cultural sustainability in the modern era.

The results of the multiple linear regression analysis from this study are represented by the equation Y = 6.518 + 0.695 X1 + 0.168 X2 - 0.210 X3 + e. The t-test results indicate that the variables of brand ambassador, electronic word of mouth (e-WOM), and price perception have a significant effect on purchasing decisions in Tokopedia's e-commerce. The F-test results show that the model is appropriate for predicting the influence of brand ambassadors, electronic word of mouth (e-WOM), and price perception on purchasing decisions in Tokopedia's e-commerce. The coefficient of determination (R²) obtained is 0.594, meaning that the independent variables X1 (brand ambassador), X2 (electronic word of mouth (e-WOM)), and X3 (price perception) contribute 59.4% to Y (purchasing decisions). The remaining 40.6% (100% - 59.4%) is explained by other variables not included in this study.

This thesis discusses efforts to increase students’ interest in learning Mathematics through the use of concrete media among third-grade students at SDN 110/1 Tenam. The purpose of the study is to improve students’ interest in learning Mathematics by using concrete media with these third-grade students. The results of the study show an increase in learning activities that indicate student interest during Cycle I and Cycle II. In Cycle I, all student learning activities were still at percentages below 70%, with ratings categorized as poor and adequate. Meanwhile, in Cycle II, the increase in student learning activities was shown by all activities reaching percentages above 74%, which means they exceeded the predetermined Learning Objectives Achievement Criteria (KKTP) and were rated good and very good. In addition, improved learning outcomes, as evidence of increased student interest, also showed a significant rise. In Cycle I, students’ learning outcomes did not meet the Learning Objectives Achievement Criteria (KKTP), with a class average of 68.9%, whereas in Cycle II, overall class mastery reached 82.3%. This improvement in learning outcomes indicates that students showed fairly good interest when learning with concrete media.
