Effective teaching styles are the most desirable styles for a teacher to infuse in his or her teaching in capturing the interest of students as well as to promote successful learning in an English language literature classroom. The neo-ethnographic study provides several interpretations of reality and alternative interpretations of data throughout the study because it is an in-depth investigation of a single case by a participant observer in the literature classroom. The purpose of this study is to identify the teaching styles preferred and also to identify the factors that influence teaching styles. This method of observation is adapted from the Flanders Interaction Analysis System (FIAS).The findings denote that the teacher’s teaching styles have created a learner-centred learning environment in literature classrooms. The correlation between the teacher’s teaching styles and the factors that influence teaching styles has been observed to be one of the influential learning climate.....

The Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) is widely accepted by instructional designers as it provides a strong theoretical foundation for developing effective instructional design guidelines. Instruction that efficiently presents learning materials within our working memory influences our ability to store knowledge and skills in long-term memory. CLT suggests that the most effective instructional materials are those that direct cognitive resources toward learning-related activities rather than toward tasks that are only preparatory to learning.In applying CLT to the design of instructional courseware, I discovered that it provides a solid foundation for developing effective learning instruction. Furthermore, to enhance courseware-based instruction effectively, the Graphical User Interface (GUI) and multimedia elements must be developed in consideration of CLT principles.Since the capacity of working memory is very limited, CLT assumes that presenting multiple sources of information in the same .....

The use of computer-aided assessment in mathematics is now widespread, particularly in formative assessment of routine skills [1]. This project generates some questions and describes some issues involved in the development of question libraries for Newton-Raphson’s method using Question Mark Perception. The questions developed are in the form of multiple choice, numerical input, responsive numerical input, and numerical input with error range type. It is hoped the questions that have been built can help students to improve their understanding and skills of the subject extensively with quick impact...

Kajian ini bertujuan mengenal pasti tahap penerimaan pelajar terhadap aplikasi Augmented Reality (AR) dan hubungannya terhadap sikap dalam pembelajaran kimia organik. Faktor kebergunaan dan kemudahgunaan telah dipilih untuk dikaji hubungannya dengan sikap pelajar menggunakan AR. Pendekatan kuantitatif dengan kaedah tinjauan menggunakan instrumen soal selidik atas talian dijalankan ke atas sampel kajian. Instrumen kajian adalah berdasarkan Model Penerimaan Teknologi (TAM). Kajian ini melibatkan 62 orang responden pelajar tingkatan enam aliran STEM. Pemilihan responden adalah berdasarkan kaedah persampelan rawak mudah. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan kaedah statistik deskriptif dan inferens. Analisis deskriptif digunakan untuk mengenal pasti tahap penerimaan AR dalam kalangan pelajar manakala analisis inferens pula digunakan untuk mengukur korelasi hubungan faktor penerimaan AR dan sikap pembelajaran kimia organik dalam kalangan pelajar. Hasil analisis deskriptif menunjukkan tahap pen.....

The study conducted aimed to investigate the interplay between emotional intelligence, social support, and academic burnout among University of Malaya students enrolled in the Faculty of Education. Specifically, it sought to discern any notable disparities in emotional intelligence and burnout concerning gender, as well as differences in social support and academic burnout across various socioeconomic statuses. Additionally, the research endeavored to explore the correlations between emotional intelligence, social support, and burnout in university students. A quantitative survey design was employed, with convenience sampling chosen to enlist Bachelor's Degree students from three departments within the Faculty of Education, resulting in 257 participants, including 20 male and 237 female students. Descriptive analyses revealed a mean age of 1.50 among participants. Three main instruments were utilized: the Emotional Intelligence by Schutte, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social.....

This study investigates the readiness and perceived understanding of secondary school physics students in Sarikei, Sarawak, regarding the implementation of light and optics nature-based learning (NBL). The objectives were to evaluate students' readiness, their perceived understanding of light and optics, and the correlation between these two variables. A quantitative survey with Likert-scale questionnaire design was employed, targeting 100 Form 4 science stream students using cluster random sampling. The validity and reliability of the instrument were tested through a pilot study, yielding a Cronbach's alpha value above 0.8, indicating high reliability. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive and inferential statistics, including mean, standard deviation, and Spearmen Correlation, showed that high levels of student readiness and perceived understanding, with significant correlations between students' readiness and their perceived understanding of light and optics in NBL contexts......

Astronomi sering dianggap sebagai bidang yang kompleks dan kurang diberi penekanan dalam pendidikan sains di sekolah menengah, dengan pendedahan minimum dalam kurikulum sains sedia ada. Teleskop radio, sebagai alat utama dalam kajian astronomi, mempunyai potensi besar untuk membantu pelajar memahami konsep asas astronomi secara interaktif dan praktikal. Namun, kekurangan modul pembelajaran yang khusus, interaktif, dan mengintegrasikan teknologi seperti teleskop radio menyukarkan pelajar untuk menghubungkan teori dengan aplikasi dunia sebenar. Kajian ini bertujuan membangunkan modul pembelajaran asas teleskop radio untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan minat pelajar terhadap astronomi. Modul ini dibangunkan berdasarkan teori konstruktivisme dan model reka bentuk instruksional ADDIE. Kajian melibatkan 62 pelajar dari dua sekolah di Kepong, Selangor, yang dipilih melalui persampelan berstrata. Data dikumpulkan melalui kesahan pakar, analisis kebolehpercayaan Cronbach Alpha, dan kajian sebenar......
