Identifying one_s vocal range whether tenor or baritone may be a challenging endeavour when the singer_s voice quality tends to overlap both categories. For an amateur singer it will be significantly constructive to know one_s voice range identity to enhance selection of repertoire or optimise performance. This thesis is based on the author_s prior experience of vocal misclassification leading to confusion, ambivalence in choosing repertoire and general vocal discomfort. The objective of this thesis is to enable a young singer to gain control of his vocal identity through developing goals that 1) facilitate a change in vocal fache 2) gain competency of the stylistic demands in repertoire for change of vocal fache 3) perform and reflect upon a variety of repertoire that facilitates the transition of vocal fache. These objectives are performed, reflected upon and mastered through a practice-led research. The discussion in this thesis is based upon a practical standpoint of a young develo.....

This study was carried out as a step to overcome the problem of comprehension and achievement of 3rd grade students in understanding the meaning and context of dialogue (al-hiwar) in Arabic. Concern for the negative perception of this subject pushed me to find innovative and effective solutions. The initial review of the study involved reviewing student work, pre-tests, questionnaires, interviews, and observations, which revealed that many students faced difficulties in understanding the meaning of the dialogue delivered. In an effort to improve the ability to understand al-hiwar, I decided to apply a comic approach. I introduced the e-Jummu method which uses comic reading techniques to help students understand the meaning of dialogue more easily. The study involved 30 students, by carrying out 5 teaching and learning activities using this approach for 8 weeks. The results of the post test show an improvement in student performance in understanding al-hiwar. Students show higher intere.....

This research explores the theme of context and its role in distinguishing between "Al-haqiqa" and "Al-magaz " The primary objective is to elucidate the accurate concepts of "Al-haqiqa" and "Al-magaz" and to ascertain the correct stance regarding the assertion made by some Arabic language scholars, claiming that language is entirely literal, rejecting metaphor as nonexistent in the Quran and speech. Conversely, others argue that language is entirely metaphorical, with no room for "Al-haqiqa." Additionally, this study aims to highlight the dual role of context, both current and linguistic, in differentiating between Al-haqiqa" and "Al-magaz". The research adopts a descriptive-analytical approach, meticulously defining the concepts "Al-haqiqa "and "Al-magaz" linguistically. Through analysis and application, the focus shifts to multiple linguistic examples within the Arabic language that precisely illustrate the distinction between "Al-haqiqa and Al-magaz", elucidating the role of both s.....

This study embarks on a journey to address the confusion faced by students when learning the conjugation of the present tense verb in Arabic, a linguistic aspect deemed highly complex for learners. This complexity arises particularly in understanding and applying the markers of mood that indicate gender and number, and aligning the verb correctly with the appropriate pronoun. These challenges result in poor student performance and their inability to memorize verb forms accurately. To navigate through these academic rapids, the study evaluates the effectiveness of the innovative educational tool B.O.F.I.M, designed to ease students' understanding of present tense conjugation, focusing especially on identifying the correct mood markers based on different pronouns. The study encompassed 37 students from one of the secondary school in Selangor, divided into 22 boys and 15 girls. The efficacy of B.O.F.I.M was assessed through pre and post-tests conducted online, along with field observation.....

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Morphological Pyramid Model in improving the acquisition of present verb conjugation skills among second-year secondary school students at Al-Biruni School in the state of Putrajaya. A set of challenges faced by the students was identified, such as a weak ability to accurately conjugate present verbs and difficulty in selecting the appropriate conjugation based on the grammatical context. The study employed a quasi-experimental approach using pre- and post-tests to assess the impact of the interactive model. The sample included 30 second-year students, and the results of the pre- and post-tests were analyzed to measure the development in linguistic performance. The results of the study showed a significant increase in the average post-test scores compared to the pre-test scores, indicating the effectiveness of using the Morphological Pyramid Model in improving students' understanding of present verb conjugation skills.
