This research paper presents the outcome of a research conducted to assess and determine the Validity and Reliability coefficient of Creative Thinking Skills for Conceptual Engineering Design Module administered to engineering undergraduates at a private institution of higher learning. The Creative Thinking Skills Module features few proposed creative thinking tools such as Brain Sketching, Mind Maps and Morphological Analysis. The validity consists of module content validity, and session and activity validity, evaluated by a group of five experts. The Cronbach Alpha value was determined through conducting a pilot study in a local private university where mechanical engineering undergraduate underwent the module workshop and activity. Questionnaires were given to respective experts and students respondents to measure the validity and reliability level of the module, sessions and activities. Keywords: Validity, Reliability, Cronbach Alpha, Creativity, Torrance Test of Creative Thinking.....

This research shows the application of the Structured Equation Modeling (SEM) to obtain the best model for studying the relationship between the more efficient and accurate against the findings and the interpretation of the variables. The objectives of the study are to assess the reliability of the developed instrument and to test construct validity of the research instruments in estimating the contributing factors to TASKA service satisfaction. The proportionate stratified random sampling method was used to select a total of 61 TASKAs from three states on the east coast of Malaysia consisting of 273 parents and guardians which are currently using the TASKA services. Validity and reliability of the measurement model in the analysis using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method. Measurement models were data-based and fit based on the fit index (CMF) _2 = 3230.541, with degrees of freedom (df) = 902, CMIN / df = 3.582 (_5.0), CFI & TLI (_0.9), and RMSEA = 0.070 (_0.1).

This study investigates how to enhance the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) of pre-service primary school art teachers in China to support effective art education in the digital age. The research addresses the growing need for integrating technology in the art classrooms, where teachers must combine technological skills with pedagogical strategies and content knowledge to foster creativity and student engagement. The objectives of the study are twofold: to assess the current level and interrelationship of seven TPACK components_Technological Knowledge (TK), Content Knowledge (CK), Pedagogical Knowledge (PK), Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK), Technological Content Knowledge (TCK), and the overall TPACK_and to determine how these dimensions influence teachers_ readiness for effective art instruction. A quantitative research design was employed, involving a sample of 384 pre-service art teachers from teacher education instit.....

This study aims to synthesise and characterise new blue phosphorescent iridium(III) complexes and investigate their structural and photophysical properties through experimental techniques and theoretical calculations. Complexes of bis(phenylpyridine)(2,6- difluorobenzylpyridinylformimidamide) iridium(III) (IR1), bis(2,4- difluorophenylpyridine)(2,6- difluorobenzylpyridinylformimidamide)iridium(III) (IR2), bis(phenylpyridine)(4- methylbenzylpyridinylformimidamide)iridium(III) (IR3) and bis(2,4- difluorophenylpyridine)(4- methylbenzylpyridinylformimidamide)iridium(III) (IR4) were synthesised by reaction between dichloro-bridged iridium(III) dimers with the respective triazolium salts. Characterisation was conducted using carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen (CHN) elemental analyser and spectroscopic techniques: nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Photophysical properties were examined using ultravioletvisible .....

Gamifikasi merupakan pendekatan yang mengintegrasikan elemen-elemen permainan dalam konteks pendidikan untuk meningkatkan motivasi, penglibatan, dan prestasi pelajar. Tujuan kajian ini adalah untuk mengenalpasti komponen-komponen, elemenelemen dan menghasilkan reka bentuk piawaian kerangka pembelajaran gamifikasi sebagai kaedah pengajaran dan pembelajaran di Politeknik Nilai mengikut kesepakatan pakar. Kajian ini menggunakan analisis Kaedah Fuzzy Delphi dengan skala likert tujuh mata dan mendapatkan kesepakatan 12 orang pakar yang terdiri daripada empat orang pakar gamifikasi, empat orang pakar bidang hortikultur dan empat orang pakar bidang kurikulum. Pakar merupakan guru dan pensyarah daripada universiti, politeknik, kolej komuniti dan sekolah. Dapatan data dianalisis berdasarkan penomboran segitiga fuzzy (Triangular Fuzzy Number) dan kedudukan (ranking). Setiap pemboleh ubah ditentukan berdasarkan proses _deffuzification_ iaitu nilai skor fuzzy (A). Berdasarkan maklum balas kesepaka.....
