Education with advanced technologies improves the learning of students. Experiential learning prepares students to thrive in today’s digital world. Experiential learning and advanced technologies in education offer a lot of room to be explored. Thus, the objective of this study is to explore the student’s experience in using a business simulation and gamification platform on the student's knowledge of business competency and soft skills. This study also aimed to discover the experiential learning experience using the MonsoonSIM platform as a case study. This study used content analysis and narrative analysis to analyse the results. The focus group interview was carried out with the Universiti Malaysia Pahang Al-Sultan Abdullah (UMPSA) from Gambang and Pekan students who have played MonsoonSIM more than 10 times. The results indicated that business simulation and gamification can improve the students’ knowledge and soft skills by using MonsoonSIM. This study also provided signific.....

Pada era teknologi pada masa kini, video animasi telah mendapat tempat dalam pelbagai sektor bidang dan diantaranya adalah dalam bidang pendidikan. Berikutan itu, video animasi telah menjadi satu keperluan dalam bidang pendidikan dalam pengajaran khususnya bagi mata pelajaran Sejarah tingkatan lima. Hal ini adalah kerana, mata pelajaran Sejarah adalah merupakan mata pelajaran yang kurang menarik minat oleh kebanyakkan murid kerana sifatnya yang pasif serta membosankan. Garis panduan yang efektif memainkan peranan penting dalam membangunkan video animasi yang dapat meningkatkan hasil pembelajaran khususnya bagi mata pelajaran Sejarah ini. Kajian ini adalah bertujuan untuk melihat tinjauan terhadap garis panduan pembangunan video animasi khusus bagi mata pelajaran Sejarah. Kajian ini menggunakan metodologi kualitatif dengan kaedah temu bual semi-struktur untuk meninjau garis panduan pembangunan video animasi khusus untuk mata pelajaran Sejarah tingkatan lima. Temu bual pakar dilakukan me.....

The purpose of this study was to investigate how students felt about using Kahoot! in grammar classrooms. This study used an exploratory qualitative case study approach with written structured interviews and classroom observations as the primary data collection methods. In order to collect the data and accomplish the objectives, class observations were conducted with a class of 24 students. The observation checklist and field notes were used during the class observations to record the findings. Six students then participated in written structured interview sessions. The written structured interview was examined, and field notes were subjected to content analysis. The results show that using Kahoot! in grammar lessons has a beneficial impact on students' interest, motivation, and classroom behavior. The gamification benefits also decreased students' anxiety when learning grammar and enhanced their intrinsic motivation to learn English. According to the findings, this study is important .....

This study aimed to improve the optical properties of reduced graphene oxide- and carbon nanotubes-coated tellurite glass doped with erbium oxide nanoparticles denoted as ZBTEr(NPs)-rGO and ZBTEr(NPs)-CNTs. Two sets of glass series were synthesized by melt-quenched technique with chemical composition of (0.47(1-y))TeO2+(0.2(1- y))B2O3+(0.29(1-y))+ZnO+Er2O3(y) wherein, y = 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, and 0.05 mol% Er2O3 nanoparticles. Tellurite-based glass was deposited with rGO and CNTs onto the glass surfaces by spray-coated technique. The physical, morphological, structural, and optical properties of ZBTEr(NPs)-rGO and ZBTEr(NPS)-CNTs glasses were characterized via densimeter, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transforminfrared (FT-IR), micro-Raman spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometer, and photoluminescence. SEM micrographs revealed morpholog.....

This study aimed to investigate (a) the challenges due to lack of IT infrastructure, (b) the challenges of security and privacy, (c) the challenges associated with IT skills, (d) the knowledge of operating standards and protocols, and (e) the existing operational framework. This study employed a systematic review of previous literature by focusing on the challenges in and opportunities for a successful transition from egovernment to m-government. A survey questionnaire was used to gather the data relating to the study constructs from 250 respondents and the proposed framework was validated by the Fuzzy Delphi method. The survey data were analyzed using Chisquare test that showed the constructs of the study - IT infrastructure, security and privacy, IT skills, knowledge of operating standards and protocols, and operational frameworks - had significant effects on the transition from e-government to mgovernment based on the calculated χ2 values not exceeding the threshold valu.....

Attendance-taking has been practised in most learning institutions, schools, colleges, and universities to monitor the students’ commitment towards their studies. The traditional way of attendance-taking is usually performed by passing a piece of paper to be signed by all the students in the class. The main drawback is proxy attendance, whereby a student can sign on behalf of their friend. Students frequently miss classes are at a higher risk of missing important information, discussions, demonstrations, and assignments, leading to knowledge gaps and hindering their overall academic progress. Additionally, traditional attendance-taking takes significant time for the paper to circulate among the students, especially in larger classrooms. This can result in wasted instructional time and disrupt the class flow. The students might be distracted, and their focus on the class material might also be disrupted. Regarding record management, paper-based attendance records can easily get mispla.....

The aim of this research was to investigate the impact of Shariah supervisory board characteristics (SSBC) on the Internal Shariah auditor Effectiveness (ISAE), and the role of Management Support as a Moderator in Islamic finance institutions in the United Arab Emirates. The selected characteristics were independence, competence, and size of SSB. A quantitative approach using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was utilized as the main research design. The actual survey questionnaire was collected from 365 respondents (Shariah Supervisory Board, Internal Shariah Auditor, Audit and governance committee, Accountants, Chief executive officers) and the data were analyzed using confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA) to determine the impact of SSBC on ISAE. The research results indicated the significant effects were independence (β =- 0.463, p..

Rapid technological advances are having an impact on the field of education. Multimedia courseware is a widely used option to help facilitate teaching and learning in the classroom. A large selection of courseware that covers many learning topics makes it easier for teachers to use it. The use of courseware that includes multimedia elements such as text, images, audio, and video, to some extent, can attract students and help their understanding process, in addition to its easy access on various platforms. However, little comprehensive analysis of digital courseware usage, especially in geography subjects for secondary school students. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, no comprehensive analysis understands the use of digital courseware among students in geography subjects. Therefore, this systematic literature review aims to examine the use of courseware in the teaching and learning process of Geography subjects for secondary school students. The search strategy was made to gathe.....
