Investigating and evaluating the effects of work discipline and motivation on employee performance at Karawang Regency's Department of Manpower and Transmigration is the aim of this study. The study was prompted by the urgent need to address the issue of low staff productivity. The methodology used is a descriptive research with a quantitative experimental approach. The saturation sampling technique, which uses the entire population as the sample, was used to select the 100 respondents in total. Data was collected by questionnaires, and the results were analyzed using descriptive interpretation and multiple linear regression tests in SPSS version 25. Based on the validity test results, 15 items for each variable motivation, work discipline, and employee performance were declared valid, and all items were found to be reliable. The data analysis results indicated that the significance values for motivation (X1) and work discipline (X2) were both 0.000. Since these values are less than 0.05, it can be concluded that both factors have a considerable effect on employee performance. These findings support the notion that more employee motivation and discipline translate into improved performance. With the best motivation and discipline, the Department of Manpower and Transmigration at Karawang Regency will be more productive.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on education, forcing learning to switch to an online system to prevent the spread of the virus. However, problems still persist, especially in elementary school mathematics education, students tend to think mathematics is difficult and not very interesting. This is due to the ineffective classroom learning approach, so that many students lose interest in learning mathematics. Therefore, innovative solutions are needed that can increase students' interest and understanding of mathematics learning, such as a gamification approach for students who prefer to play. The purpose of this study is to develop a mobile application that combines a gamification approach as a mathematics learning material for elementary school students. The system concept in this mobile application is that students can work on practice questions and see learning outcomes, choose an avatar on the edit profile, and access the discussion forum available in the application. This application is designed to create an interactive, fun and effective learning experience using the ADBO (Analyze, Design, Build, Operate) method which is systematic and directed to ensure that each stage of the process provides optimal results and according to user needs with the hope of overcoming complex problems faced by students. Through the modeling used in the preparation of this application, it is hoped that it will be in accordance with its purpose, namely to provide convenience to elementary school students, from grade 1 to grade 6, to become better at learning.
