This research was aimed at analyzing the enhancement of students' mathematical reasoning abilities through problem-based learning. The experimental design was pre-post control group design. The research population was all junior high school student of SMP Al-Muhajirin Purwakarta. The research sample was taken randomly, was the class VIII C students as the experimental group who participated in instruction with problem-based learning and the other class VIII D as control group who participated in instruction with conventional learning. Data was collected through test and questionnaires. The statistical analysis used is the Gain test for the results of students' mathematical reasoning ability tests. The analysis of gain score showed that the enhancement of students’ abilities who participated in instruction with problem-based learning was better than those who participated in instruction with conventional learning. Problem-based learning in mathematics lessons shows a positive response which shows that students like the method used.

The components of learning quality and infrastructure play a fundamental role in maintaining and forming student learning motivation. This research seeks to analyze the influence of learning quality and infrastructure on student learning motivation. This research uses a quantitative research approach with descriptive correlation methods. The data used in the research is primary data obtained from the results of distributing questionnaires to research subjects, namely 100 students and teachers at SMK Negeri 1 Cilengkrang, Bandung Regency. The results of this research indicate that the quality of learning is in the adequate category, in the context of learning quality it indicates that the quality of learning is at an adequate level, but still has several weaknesses or areas of improvement that need attention, such as ownership of learning media because not all students have it. Furthermore, the infrastructure is known to be in a bad category. The bad category in the context of facilities and infrastructure indicates that the condition or quality of the facilities and infrastructure is below the standards expected to carry out certain functions or activities. Based on the results obtained, it can be understood that the quality of learning and infrastructure play an important role in motivating student learning.  

The lack of availability of teaching materials on basic embroidery techniques means students learn embroidery by relying on examples from previous assignments and searching for assignments on YouTube. Even though this example does not contain detailed steps, students still experience difficulties in understanding embroidery techniques, the art of arranging thread, adjusting and placing the right colors for good, embroidered decoration. Therefore, there is a need for tutorial-based textbooks on learning basic embroidery techniques. The aim of the research is to produce a tutorial-based textbook on basic embroidery techniques courses in the fashion design education study program at Medan State University. The development model uses the ADDIE model. The data collection technique uses a questionnaire and is analyzed using qualitative descriptive analysis. Validation of teaching materials is carried out by material experts and media experts. The validity test of material experts obtained 83.9% and media experts obtained 81.73% in the good category. The results of small group trials obtained 81.8%, medium scale trials obtained 82.87% and large group trials obtained 85.3%. The results of the research show that tutorial-based teaching materials are suitable for use in learning basic embroidery techniques courses. It is hoped that this tutorial-based teaching material can help teachers convey practical material in detail and make it easier for students to understand basic embroidery techniques independently.

Students with special needs often face unique challenges in identifying and pursuing career paths that align with their abilities and interests. Previous studies have shown that tailored career guidance and vocational training can significantly enhance their career prospects and independence. This study explores the career interests of students with special needs at SMALB Pangudi Luhur, Jakarta, using the Strong Interest Inventory (SII) to identify interests across various fields such as STEM, Marketing, Sales and Services, Hospitality and Tourism, and Education and Training. The research, involving 30 students aged 17-21, reveals that many career options align with their visual abilities, while abstract and high-intelligence roles are less feasible. The findings highlight the need for tailored career guidance programs that include hands-on training and practical experiences to help these students understand and pursue suitable career paths. This study underscores the importance of vocational training and self-awareness in fostering career independence for students with special needs. It provides a basis for developing inclusive and culturally relevant career counseling programs.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in innovative teaching methodologies to improve student engagement and learning outcomes. The integration of the flipped classroom model with the STEM approach has shown promising potential in fostering critical and creative thinking skills among students. This study aims to find out whether the flipped classroom learning model through the STEM approach can be used to enhance students' creative thinking skills in the subject matter of a three-variable linear equation system for Grade X at MA Mathalibul Huda Mlonggo in the 2022/2023 academic year. The method used in this study is an experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest experimental design. The research results found that the flipped classroom learning model through the STEM approach was able to improve students' mathematical creative thinking abilities in the material of a system of three-variable linear equations. This can be seen from the T-test result, which obtained the results so that sig.(2-tailed) <?=0,05. Therefore, it can be concluded that the flipped classroom learning model with the STEM approach is able to improve students' mathematical creative thinking skills in the subject matter of a three variables linear equation system for Grade X at MA Mathalibul Huda Mlonggo for the 2022/2023 academic year. This is also reinforced by the results of the normalized gain test which has a value of 0,39, indicating a moderate category of improvement.
