This research is aimed to identify learning management of Ihya Ulumiddin Islamic Boarding School. The Boarding school is under the management of Darusallam of Lirboyo. This research design is descriptive qualitative while the data collection method uses are observation, interview and documentation. The stage of teaching plan is done by formulating and analyzing the materials thought. The teacher prepares the materials with mudzakaroh and determines the homeroom teacher.

The purpose of this study is to help students who experience mathematical phobia by conducting mathematical therapy. Mathematical therapy was carried out using multimedia "digimonica". This research used quantitative research methods, type of action research. The data sources in this study were 13 students of Class XI of SMA Islam Hasyim Asy'ari Batu who have a mathematical phobia. Data collection method was done by using tests and interviews. The action research process began with the identification of problems, namely the level of students' mathematical phobias. This process was carried out by conducting a pretest, then the researcher conducted a mathematical therapy action with multimedia "digimonica" as an effort to overcome the students' mathematical phobia, then ended with a posttest. Based on the results of the pretest and posttest, the data obtained changes in the level of mathematical phobia of students. In the initial conditions, there were three categories of students who had mathematical phobias (mild, moderate, high), whereas after mathematical therapy, the level of mathematical phobia decreased (mild and moderate). In general, the average student successfully answered more than 2 questions correctly. This proves that therapy using multimedia "digimonica" can help students to reduce the level of mathematical phobia.

This article explores the growth of (SME) development in Egypt. It focuses on measuring the motives of Egyptian entrepreneurs. The research design of the article is based on a quantitative data collection method in which a questionnaire was administrated to 211 small and medium sized firm entrepreneurs in Alexandria, Egypt. The results of the article indicate that the financial motive has less impact than the need for recognition in the process of starting a business. However, the financial motive is greater than the need to preserve family businesses and traditions. The recognition motive is related to perceived favorable governmental policies designed to stimulate entrepreneurial development. The financial motives are not associated with perceived economic conditions or available marketing opportunities. The freedom motive is significantly related to economic conditions, governance, and marketing opportunities. The family tradition motive is significantly associated with economic conditions but only moderately related to marketing opportunity.

The use of image elicitation methods has been recognised in qualitative research for some time; however, the use of mood boards to prompt participant discussion is currently an under-researched area. This article explores the use of mood boards as a data collection method in qualitative research. Used in design disciplines mood boards allow designers to interpret and communicate complex or abstract aspects of a design brief. In this study, I utilise mood boards as being part creative visual method and part image elicitation device. The use of mood boards is explained here in the context of a research project exploring masculinity and men’s reflexivity. In this article, I consider the benefits of utilising this method in researching reflexivity and gender before offering a critical appraisal of this method and inviting others to explore how mood boards might enhance research projects involving elicitation.

Purpose: Diabetes is a chronic disease that pays for a large proportion of the nation's healthcare expenses when people with diabetes want medical care continuously. Several complications will occur if the polymer disorder is not treated and unrecognizable. The prescribed condition leads to a diagnostic center and a doctor's intention. One of the real-world subjects essential is to find the first phase of the polytechnic. In this work, basically a survey that has been analyzed in several parameters within the poly-infected disorder diagnosis. It resembles the classification algorithms of data collection that plays an important role in the data collection method. Automation of polygenic disorder analysis, as well as another machine learning algorithm. Design/methodology/approach: This paper provides extensive surveys of different analogies which have been used for the analysis of medical data, For the purpose of early detection of polygenic disorder. This paper takes into consideration methods such as J48, CART, SVMs and KNN square, this paper also conducts a formal surveying of all the studies, and provides a conclusion at the end. Findings: This surveying has been analyzed on several parameters within the poly-infected disorder diagnosis. It resembles that the classification algorithms of data collection plays an important role in the data collection method in Automation of polygenic disorder analysis, as well as another machine learning algorithm. Practical implications: This paper will help future researchers in the field of Healthcare, specifically in the domain of diabetes, to understand differences between classification algorithms. Originality/value: This paper will help in comparing machine learning algorithms by going through results and selecting the appropriate approach based on requirements.
