The use of diorama media for marine ecosystem food chains in science learning is a support in achieving the success of learning objectives. This study was conducted to determine the function of dioramas in science learning. Kemmis and Mc Taggart's class-action research-based literature study model became this research method. The target subjects of this study involved 28 students in grade IV of SD Negeri Cireundeu 02 in the 2022/2023 school year. Many literatures have proven the effectiveness of diodrama media in improving students' understanding of science concepts in various material families. The effectiveness of the use of diodrama media is also proven after being applied in teaching the food chain of marine ecosystems in elementary school science, although it still has several weaknesses. Despite the weaknesses possessed, in terms of helping the development of students' understanding of science concepts is very helpful significantly, This can be seen from the student learning outcomes from meeting I as many as 78.57% (22 students) have achieved learning completion, and meeting II as many as 89.29% (25 students) who were declared successful. The results of this study certainly contribute effectively in eliminating student learning passivity and encouraging improvement in learning outcomes.

Science learning will always be relevant in developing students' science concepts that are measurable from the achievement of learning outcomes. The purpose of this study, designed with the classroom action research method, was to find out whether students' concepts of position and sun shadow material science improved by applying a picture and picture type cooperative learning model based on test analysis, documentation, observation, and field notes. Teachers and 26 grade II students of SDN Tanjung Barat 09 were involved in the research. The results of this study showed that the classical completeness of student learning outcomes became better from pre-cycle (42.30%), cycle-I (65.40%) to cycle-II (80.80%). This means that the application of the applied learning model helps students gain knowledge and understanding of science about the position and shadow material of the sun, which is part of the science material available in elementary schools. The contribution of the results then recommends teachers to maximize the application of the teaching model in strengthening students' understanding of science concepts regarding teaching material juxtaposed with the implementation of the model studied.

Alternative Effectiveness of MEMC-Based Classroom Management in Student Learning at MI Taufiqurrahman 2 Kukusan

The Make Every Minute Count (MEMC) pattern is the focus of classroom management implementation which is considered effective in designing educational experiences that encourage active participation in student learning, so that it is in line with the purpose of this research through the involvement of 42 MI Taufiqurrahman 2 Steamer students as samples divided into control classes and experiments (purposive sampling) from 457 research results by applying through methods quasi-experiment. In testing samples using questionnaires as the main instrument, the feasibility test results of the instrument 0.836 (Cronbach's Alpha) are known. The population variance of the two homogeneous class groups is seen from the comparison of t-_count and t-_table (0.198 > 0.05). The post-test MEMC (Experiment) result of 86.00 is greater than the post-test Classroom Meeting (Control) of 82.29. The meaning of the results of this test proves that MEMC class management affects student learning activity in MI Taufiqurrahman 2 Kukusan. The results of these findings, contributing to realizing classroom management oriented to student learning activity, but its effectiveness may not be generalizable to students outside the sample subjects studied.

This phenomenon causes anxiety in victims such as anger, shame, closing themselves and even antipathy to progress in learning. Qualitative methods with a content analysis approach were emphasized in this study, but still require quantitative data information through the distribution of questionnaire instruments for 20 student respondents at SDN Pangongangan Madiun related to indications of cyberbullying behavior. The expected implications of this research are minimizing the negative impact of ciberbullying and increasing students' social awareness to be wise in utilizing the TikTok platform for more positive and educational activities.
