Abstract. This research aims to analyze the influence of social assistance spending and subsidy spending on poverty in North Sumatra Province. The independent variables in this research include social assistance spending and subsidy spending, while the dependent variable is poverty. The data used comes from the North Sumatra Central Statistics Agency for the 2009-2023 period, which includes data on social assistance spending, subsidy spending and the depth of poverty. The data analysis method used is multiple linear regression. The results of this research show that social assistance spending has a positive but not significant influence on poverty, while subsidy spending has a positive and significant influence on poverty. Government spending policies in the form of subsidies and social assistance still require evaluation to increase their effectiveness in reducing poverty.

Mastering English from an early age is an important factor in preparing children to face global challenges in the future. This research aims to explore effective English language teaching methods in local communities, especially for children aged 7-12 years from lower middle socio-economic backgrounds. A qualitative approach was used through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of learning activities for 3 weeks. The research results show that interactive methods, such as games, role playing, and the use of simple technology, can improve language skills, build self-confidence, and create an enjoyable learning experience. In addition, local community involvement and parental empowerment have proven to play an important role in supporting children's learning. These findings emphasize the need for collaboration between communities, educators, and families to create sustainable and relevant learning programs. With a needs-based and technology-based approach, English language teaching can be an effective tool for building a brighter future for children.

Islamic education has a strategic role in shaping the character of students who are able to live harmoniously in a multicultural society. Islamic values ??such as tolerance, mutual respect and cooperation must be taught to promote harmony amidst cultural, ethnic and religious differences. Although Islamic teachings support inclusivity and respect for diversity, its practice is often faced with challenges. Therefore, an Islamic education approach with a multicultural perspective is needed to teach students to understand that differences are God's decree and must be seen as a social force. This educational concept needs to prioritize human values, moderation and openness, as well as integrating diversity in learning. Through education that emphasizes multiculturalism, it is hoped that a generation that not only adheres to religion but is also able to maintain social harmony can be formed. This research also identifies challenges in implementing multicultural education in Islamic schools and offers strategies to overcome these obstacles.

Mental health is very important for society and individuals. However, the stigma of mental illness remains a major barrier for those who need support and treatment. Self-, social, and structural stigma are types of stigma that contribute to isolation and discrimination. The aim of this research is to find out how education and awareness campaigns can prevent the stigma of mental disorders. The methods used include analysis of literature on biological, psychological, and social variables that influence mental health, as well as analysis of primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention methods. The results show that public education, awareness campaigns, and programs in schools based on social media can significantly increase public understanding and reduce unfavorable stereotypes. In conclusion, preventing mental disorders requires a broad approach that includes education, early detection, and community-based intervention. In this way, society can create a friendly, supportive and stigma-free environment to improve everyone's mental well-being.

This research is classroom action research (PTK) which aims to determine the increase in learning motivation and learning outcomes of grade IV elementary school students in mathematics subjects through the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach. Data was collected using questionnaire and test techniques, which were carried out three times, namely at the pre-cycle stage, cycle I and cycle II. The application of the TaRL approach in mathematics learning has proven successful in increasing students' learning motivation. Based on the results of observations, the percentage of learning motivation increased from 49% in the pre-cycle to 61% in cycle I, and rose again to 78% in cycle II. Apart from that, student learning outcomes also showed a significant improvement, with the percentage of completion increasing from 56% in the pre-cycle to 70% in cycle I, and reaching 83% in cycle II, which is included in the good category.

This research aims to analyze the legal aspects contained in loan-to-use agreements related to the use of regional property, especially land and buildings. In addition, this research aims to evaluate the implementation of Minister of Home Affairs Regulation (Permendagri) number 19 of 2016 concerning Guidelines for Management of Regional Property which has undergone changes through Home Affairs Government Regulation number 7 of 2024 concerning Amendments to Permendagri number 19 of 2016 concerning Property Management Regionally Owned. Furthermore, this research also aims to identify the terms and conditions governing the use of regional property in the Borrow-Use Agreement for regional assets in the form of land and buildings proposed by the Indonesian National Sports Committee, Sumenep Regency. The method used in this research is a qualitative research method with a focus on empirical legal research. The research results indicate that the Indonesian National Sports Committee is not included in the legal subjects regulated by the Borrow-Use Agreement for Regional Property. This is due to the character of KONI which is a non-governmental organization. In practice, KONI cannot implement loan-to-use agreements on regional assets; However, KONI still has the opportunity to enter into an agreement to utilize other regional assets.

This paper presents a hybrid quantum-classical machine learning model for classification tasks, integrating a 4-qubit quantum circuit with a classical neural network. The quantum circuit is designed to encode the features of the Iris dataset using angle embedding and entangling gates, thereby capturing complex feature relationships that are difficult for classical models alone. The model, which we term a Quantum Convolutional Neural Network (QCNN), was trained over 20 epochs, achievinga perfect 100% accuracy on the Iris dataset test set on 16 epoch. Our results demonstrate the potential of quantum-enhanced models in supervised learning tasks, particularly in efficiently encoding and processing data using quantum resources. We detail the quantum circuit design, parameterizedgate selection, and the integration of the quantum layer with classical neural network components.This work contributes to the growing body of research on hybrid quantum-classical models and theirapplicability to real-world datasets.
