The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated some anxiety among students, particularly in the realm of higher education where remote learning has become the norm. Despite the escalating prevalence of anxiety among students in the context of online language education, there is a notable absence of comprehensive strategies tailored to effectively mitigate foreign language anxiety (FLA) and support learners, necessitating research to identify evidence-based approaches to address FLA and foster a positive learning environment. This paper reviews the influence of anxiety on language learners, with a focus on the challenges posed by online language education. It explores the multifaceted nature of FLA and its implications for language learning outcomes. The study proposes practical strategies to alleviate anxiety among language learners. These strategies include implementing cooperative learning activities, providing constructive feedback, creating a positive learning atmosphere, addressing individual .....

Amidst Malaysia’s burgeoning child mental health crisis, effective early detection and intervention strategies within educational settings are imperative. This study introduces the Student Mental Health Awareness Questionnaire (SMHAQ), designed to evaluate secondary school teachers’ awareness of student mental health issues. Developed to address the gap in mental health literacy among educators, the SMHAQ features 101 items across knowledge, attitudes, and practices domains. Administered to 391 teachers across three Malaysian states, the questionnaire exhibited high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha of 0.849) and moderate test-retest reliability, affirming its credibility as a comprehensive measure for mental health awareness. However, the study’s limitation to specific regions and a brief test-retest interval underscores the necessity for further reliability testing across a broader educational and cultural landscape. Future research should explore longitudinal applicabil.....

The utilisation of the problem-based learning (PBL) approach serves as a pedagogy that enables students to acquire knowledge on genuine concerns and subsequently apply them in practical settings. This particular methodology allows for the incorporation of experiences to facilitate adaptability through the process of learning. Students in the tourism programme are able to support aspects of issues through their last experiences with tourism and it is posited that students engage in collaborative discussions with peers to discuss the issue and acquire knowledge through experiential learning. This study focused mainly on the listening ability of students to apply the PBL approach to enhance their listening ability based on tourism issues. Additionally, the study seeks to explore the opportunities, advantages, and challenges associated with its use. The study was conducted over a period of eight weeks and comprised a sample of thirty-nine students. The data analysis entailed the utilisatio.....

Magnesium alloys have been widely used in biodegradable applications due to their propensity for corroding within the human body and their initial mechanical properties. However, recent research has shown that the increased rate of magnesium deterioration inside the human body causes structural stability of the implant to be disturbed and lost quickly. Electrical discharge machining (EDM) die sinking is a machining technique used to produce complex forms with high tolerance in magnesium alloy, focusing on the relationship between process parameters and machining effect. The research aims to investigate the effect of EDM process parameters on surface roughness, material removal rate (MRR), and energy consumption to optimize and validate the machining parameter prone to energy saving and the best machining characteristic. The experiments were optimized using a design of experiment approach with a full factorial design and response surface methodology. The relationship models b.....
