The emergence of Data Science driven by the need to deal with data systematically and intelligently puts modern statistical practice as an important weapon. In line with the development of Data Science, the rebranding of statistics education took place in institutions of higher learning that used new labels such as data analytics courses to replace the old name of statistics courses. The objective of this paper is to highlight the implementation of teaching and learning of data analytics on three issues namely the development of the field of data analytics in the country, the challenges of implementing data analytics teaching and learning at the tertiary level and the direction of data analytics teaching and learning. Based on the shift in the paradigm of data analytics pedagogy to practical and interactive integration of conceptual understandings, recommendations for the teaching and learning of data analytics are discussed...

Soil is one of the most encountered physical evidence and can be useful in tracing the location of the crime scene. The discrimination of soils is fundamental to provide a link between a suspect and a crime scene. However, discrimination study of soils could be difficult due to interferences in the chemical fingerprint of soils obtained via a chemical instrumental technique. In this study, performances of four column-wise manipulations (CWMs) on ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) data of soils were evaluated. Both univariate and multivariate exploratory tools have been employed to elucidate discriminative capability of the preprocessed UPLC data. Results showed that CWMs hardly caused any positive impact to the UPLC data...

The use of ICT in teaching and studying mathematics helps students to develop mathematics. The practice's application, therefore, depends on different considerations, amongst which: teachers' expectations of their ICT teaching skills, instructor attitudes towards teachers in mathematics, teacher attitudes towards ICT contributions to student mathematics awareness. The research was undertaken to assess ICT integration readiness in the classroom in the Paracelis district for mathematics teachers at secondary schools. The thesis used a questionnaire with comments on any of the above variables. This questionnaire was forwarded to 15 mathematics teachers at Paracelis District secondary schools. It shows that ICT teachers' intervention in mathematics has an average limit of 4.06. It also ensures that mathematics teachers are confident and willing to use ICT in mathematics and mathematics instruction. The research results indicated that the controls and the sample groups were substantially di.....

A rapid IoT application and its technology nowadays allowed the needs analyse of requirements elicitation to ensure the application product developed is consistent, correctness and complete. However, improper to elicit requirements is lead the failure of Arduino and IoT development. As requirements engineer, they must know how to elicit the requirements before proceeds to software development. Therefore, this paper provides a gap of study for existing work requirements elicitation that exist in market for commercial and for research purposes. We report our findings from review and analysis of different studies. The strengths and weaknesses of the features and utility are also presented to provide further understanding of the gaps and weaknesses of each research. We conclude that these researches are still immature and need further improvements...

The aims of the study are to determine the need and effectiveness of Algebraic Expression Training Module (Mi-T2) in improving Form Two students’ higher order thinking skills. The level of thinking skill of Malaysian students is still low. A descriptive study and quasi-experimental study was conducted at a secondary school in Perak in order to determine the need and effectiveness of Mi-T2 module. Questionnaires about the need of Mi-T2 training module, pre-test and post-test were the instruments being used in the study. The school teacher provided responses by completing questionnaires to determine the need of module. A control group and experimental group were selected from the Form Two classes to be the sample study. They had to answer the instruments pre-test and post-test before and after the treatment. The findings showed that 80% mathematics teachers indicated that there is a need for the Mi-T2 training module. The comparison of the mean scores for the experimental group and con.....

This research aims to develop an Android application of terms register in Malay – English for KSSM Physics for Physics student teachers’ use. A need analysis was performed to obtain feedback from ten student teachers about the existence of this application. This application is developed based on the ADDIE instructional model and undergoes a pilot test using a qualitative approach to obtain the initial feedback. After improvement, this application undergoes an application validity process through three experts using face and content validity forms. A quantitative approach was made using the Heuristic Evaluation Questionnaire (HEQ) survey on 30 student teachers to obtain the application usability. This research has produced an application on an Android platform containing 418 extracted terms from Standard Document for Curriculum and Assessment (DSKP) for Form 4 and Form 5 Physics with the application name is FiPhyNeo. FiPhyNeo receives a Content Validity Index (CVI) of 0.93. FiPhyNeo.....

Algebraic problem solving is one of the important areas in learning mathematics. However, the result shows that student’s performance in algebra mainly in solving problem is not satisfying. This study had two folds aim that are capturing teacher’s view on the teaching and learning algebraic problem solving and also to grasp the idea whether the teacher have implicitly implemented problem posing strategy in a classroom. Thus, the objectives of this study are 1) to gain teacher practices in teaching and learning algebraic problem solving, 2) to find out the difficulties faced by teachers while teaching Form Two students to solve algebraic problem solving, and 3) to find out whether the teachers have implicitly imposed problem posing strategy in a classroom. Participants in the study were 8 experienced teachers who were been teaching mathematics especially mathematics Form Two syllabus and have teaching experience for more than five years. Data were gathered through qualitative techni.....

Past studies have found that there are constraints on teachers in developing teaching and learning (TnL) resources to implement STEM education in the classroom. Based on this issue, this research has developed a platform containing a variety of STEM TnL resource materials that focus on the field of Discrete Mathematics learning. This field of study is an area of learning in KSSM Mathematics for form four students. It encompasses three titles, namely Logical Reasoning, Operations on Sets, and Network in Graph Theory. Discrete Mathematics was the focus in the development of this platform as it is often considered difficult for students to understand. Additionally, as teachers find it challenging to find suitable learning materials to get students to be more interested. The wide range of TnL STEM source materials contained in this platform makes it easier for teachers to choose and apply them in TnL. The ADDIE model was used as the development model for this platform. This model is among .....

This study was aimed to determine the relationship of psychosocial learning environment, learning styles with the Additional Mathematics achievement besides to identify psychosocial differences in the learning environments and learning styles by gender and school type in achievement. Quantitative approaches with a survey design used for this study. About 205 form four Additional Mathematics students from 13 secondary schools in Setiu district were chosen using strata sampling methods. Research instrument are ‘What is Happening in This Classroom’ (WIHIC) and Dunn and Dunn learning styles. Data analysed using descriptive to describe the level of perception about psychosocial learning environment and the most dominant learning style while inferential analysis involved the MANOVA and Spearman’s Rho correlation test. The findings showed that the students’ familiarity had the highest level of perception while the emotional category learning styles was the dominant of the students. Th.....
