The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of perceived risks on mobile shopping behaviour among UTAR students. The risk perceptions being examined are product performance risk, health risk, time risk, financial risk, security risk and social risk. An online survey form was used for the purpose of data collection using purposive sampling. Upon sending emails to 900 students, 405 questionnaires were collected with response rate of 45.11%. A five-point Likert scale questionnaire was employed during the data collection process. Two experts have validated the instrument used and the reliability test of Cronbach Alpha coefficients were between α = 0.637 to 0.839. The data collected were quantitatively analysed using SPSS version 24 and AMOS version 22 software. The results showed that product performance risk (β = -0.638, p= 0.000), time risk (β = -5.715, p = 0.010), financial risk (β = -9.768, p = 0.024) and security risk (β = -4.453, p = 0.034) have significant r.....

This research was conducted to analyse teacher perception, understanding, and challenges in developing High Order Thinking Skill (HOTS) questions in Central Lombok, Indonesia. A qualitative approach with a case study design was utilized, involving interviews as the primary data collection method. The respondents were selected using purposive sampling, involving seven teachers with more than five years of teaching experience. The data analysis was carried out thematically. According to the findings, 1) The teacher believes HOTS is important for students, but students have low HOTS abilities. One of the causes is the teacher's teaching strategy. Furthermore, they perceive that several teaching strategies to enhance HOTS are ice breaking, grouping, and interactive interaction in the classroom. 2). Teacher understanding of HOTS is sufficient but needs improvement. And 3). The challenges for teachers in developing HOTS questions came from students' ability and attitude, as well .....

This study aimed at investigating the use of semantic mapping in vocabulary learning among a group of Year Four pupils in a primary school located in the rural area of Pahang. Despite the importance of vocabulary in ESL learning, quite a number of Malaysian pupils are still having a limited vocabulary, shown through the palpable view of their poor English performance. Using the quasi-experimental mixed-method design, data were gained by conducting pre- and post-tests, distributing a questionnaire to the pupils in the experimental group, and conducting an interview with three pupils selected using the purposive sampling method in order to further understand how the participants view the use of semantic mapping for vocabulary learning. Interestingly, despite an improvement made by both control and experimental groups in the post-test, the total improvement scores for the latter exceeded the former. The survey conducted showed that a majority of pupils in the experimental group.....

New approach in teaching and learning (T&L) is essential to sustain the evolvement of knowledge towards a borderless frame. One way to achieve this is by utilizing technology, particularly in T&L with the aim to scaffold the process of knowledge transfer efficiently. In order to adapt to the changes, educators must keep their pace synchronized with the latest innovation in teaching tools, which is common in the field of e-learning. The lack of T & L tools, particularly in learning Physics subjects and the challenges in mastering the concepts are the motivation for a need analysis to be carried out for post-secondary students. This study is crucial to elucidate the actual needs among educators as well as students and to address the choice of topics and preferable methods. The respondent of this study consists of 38 Physics lecturers from eight matriculation colleges under the Ministry of Education, Malaysia, selected through random sampling. A survey form was developed and validated by .....

Anacardium occidentale, locally known as “pokok gajus” is known for its medicinal purposes. The objectives of this study are to isolate compounds from the stem bark extract of A. occidentale and to study the antioxidant properties of the extracts. Cold maceration method was performed for the extraction of A. occidentale stem bark. Purification of the crude extracts using column chromatography successfully isolated two compounds. The isolated compounds were elucidated using spectroscopic methods including Fourier Transform Infrared and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy. These compounds were identified as stearic acid and β-sitosterol. The antioxidant potential of the crude extracts was determined using a 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay. The results revealed that methanol extract was most effective in the capability to scavenge free radicals as it exhibited the highest radical scavenging activity towards DPPH with an IC50 value of 87.67 μg/mL. To.....
