The use of audio-visual media significantly increased students' interest and understanding of explanatory text material. Students demonstrated improved ability in determining appropriate terms and adjusting explanatory texts to their proper structure and characteristics. Audio-visual media, such as PowerPoint presentations and videos, made the material more engaging and comprehensible, facilitating a more efficient learning process. Students using audio-visual media showed higher levels of engagement compared to those who did not, as they were able to follow the learning flow more effectively. Conclusion. The findings suggest that audio-visual media play a crucial role in enhancing the learning experience for students studying explanatory text material.

<![CDATA[Background. With the rapid development of information technology, the use of online learning platforms in Indonesia is increasing. However, the legal regulations governing the use of these platforms are still limited and often inadequate. This poses a variety of challenges, including data security, copyright, and access equality issues. Purpose. This study aims to identify the challenges faced in the regulation of the use of online learning platforms in Indonesia and to formulate solutions that can be implemented to overcome these challenges. Method. This research uses a qualitative approach with literature study methods and in-depth interviews. The literature study was conducted to collect secondary data from various literature related to legal regulations and online learning platforms. In-depth interviews were conducted with experts in the fields of law, information technology, and education to gain deeper insights. Results. The results of the study show that the main challenges in regulating the use of online learning platforms in Indonesia include the lack of data security standards, weak copyright protection, and limited access for students in remote areas. In addition, the lack of coordination between relevant government agencies is also an obstacle to the effective implementation of regulations. Conclusion. This study concludes that to overcome the challenges in regulating the use of online learning platforms in Indonesia, comprehensive regulatory updates and better coordination between government agencies are needed. In addition, there is a need to increase awareness about the importance of data security and copyright among users and providers of online learning platforms.

The study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing QDA Miner software for data analysis.

It is the responsibility of parents to know the changes that occur during the child's growth and development. Purpose. This study aims to evaluate the extent of the influence of technology on children's intellectual intelligence, especially in elementary school children. The focus of this research is to understand how technology affects the intellectual development of children in this age group. Method. The approach used in this study is a quantitative method. Data was collected through the distribution of questionnaires using Google Forms, which were filled out by teachers in elementary schools.
