SOCIALIZATION OF BULLYING PREVENTION THROUGH POSTER MEDIA AT THE AL-HUDA MOSQUE TPA
The initiative to raise awareness about bullying prevention using posters at the Al-Huda Musala landfill has been implemented as a proactive measure to foster early understanding among children about the importance of mutual respect and the need to avoid violent behavior. Bullying remains a common concern in educational settings, especially among young children who may not yet have a comprehensive understanding of the boundaries of behavior that can harm others. This initiative uses visually appealing, colorful posters that convey educational content about the definition of bullying, its various manifestations, its consequences, and the appropriate responses for victims or witnesses of bullying incidents. The methodology used includes observation, direct involvement, and interactive question and answer sessions with students and educators. The results of the outreach efforts show that the posters successfully increased the children's focus and facilitated their understanding of the message conveyed in a direct but effective manner. The children showed greater responsiveness, demonstrated the ability to identify examples of bullying behavior, and showed significant changes in their attitudes during educational and recreational activities. As a result, it can be concluded that the use of posters as a medium for outreach is an effective and easy-to-execute improvement strategy.

THE DYNAMICS AND IMPACT OF GLOBALIZATION IN THE FIELD OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
Globalization has become a major force shaping various aspects of human life, including in the fields of science and technology. Globalization makes technology easier to access and exchange between countries and accelerates the development of innovation. But not everyone benefits equally from globalization, and some countries or regions lag behind in adopting new technologies. In Indonesia, we can see the physical impact of globalization through the development of cities that are part of the urban network. This can be seen in the telecommunications infrastructure, transportation, and the presence of international companies and their branches. Globalization has brought negative and positive impacts to Indonesian society. The positive impact is that we can see changes in values and attitudes, advances in science and technology, and an increase in the level of life. But there are also negative impacts such as consumptive lifestyles, increased individualism, and the influence of western lifestyles that are getting stronger, as well as increasing social inequality. By understanding how the dynamics and impacts of globalization affect science and technology, we can work together to create a more just and inclusive country where knowledge and technology can be used for the common good.

VARIETY OF PAI LEARNING EVALUATIONS: MEASURING SPIRITUALITY AND ACADEMIC SUCCESS
This study aims to analyze the variety of evaluations in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) learning, both in terms of spirituality and academics. Evaluation not only functions to measure students' knowledge of Islamic teachings, but also to assess the extent of internalization of religious values in their daily lives. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews with PAI teachers, and documentation studies related to evaluation instruments used in schools. The results of the study indicate that PAI learning evaluations are carried out in two main aspects: (1) Academic evaluation, which includes written tests, project assignments, and oral exams, used to measure students' cognitive understanding of the Qur'an, hadith, fiqh, and Islamic history. (2) Spirituality evaluation, which includes observations of worship practices, students' social behavior in the school environment, and their involvement in religious activities. These findings indicate that most schools emphasize academic evaluation more, while spirituality evaluation is still qualitative and less objectively measurable. Therefore, this study recommends the development of a more systematic spirituality evaluation instrument so that the assessment process becomes more comprehensive. Thus, Islamic Religious Education learning is not only aimed at producing students who are intellectually intelligent, but also have a strong Islamic character.

THE EFFECT OF THE TGT (TEAMS GAMES TOURNAMENT) MODEL ASSISTED BY MONOPOLY MEDIA ON THE LEARNING OUTCOMES OF FOURTH GRADE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN IPAS
The central issue that is being addressed in this particular research endeavor pertains to the notably inadequate science learning outcomes that have been observed among the fourth-grade students enrolled at SD Negeri 1 Labuah Ratu Dua. The primary objective of this research is to systematically investigate and elucidate the effects that the Team Games Tournament (TGT) learning model has on improving these educational outcomes. The methodological framework employed in this study is characterized by a quasi-experimental design, which allows for the exploration of causal relationships while maintaining a level of control over extraneous variables. The total population under consideration in this research comprises 60 students, and it is noteworthy that the sample size is also exactly 60 students, thereby ensuring comprehensive representation. In determining the research sample, a non-probability sampling technique was utilized, which is particularly relevant in contexts where random sampling is not feasible or practical. The data collection methods employed in this study encompass a variety of non-test techniques, including but not limited to observation and documentation, alongside test techniques, which are specifically structured in the format of multiple-choice questions. The subsequent data processing was conducted using statistical methods such as the chi-square formula, F-test, and simple linear regression analyses, all of which collectively provide robust evidence supporting the hypothesis. The results indicate a statistically significant effect of the TGT learning model on the academic performance of students in the fourth grade of elementary school, as substantiated by the finding that Fhitung exceeds Ftabel, specifically with values of 19.77 and 4.20, respectively. This compelling evidence serves to underscore the efficacy of the TGT learning model as an innovative pedagogical approach aimed at enhancing science learning outcomes within this educational context. Overall, the implications of these findings are far-reaching, suggesting that the implementation of such collaborative learning strategies could potentially transform educational practices in similar settings.
