Problem Based Learning (PBL) is believed be able to promote higher order thinking, better problem solving skills and analytical thinking towards biology learning.This study employed problem-based learning in a Pre-University biology class (N=80) in a private college in Malaysia. The important aspect of the research is to elicit students' natural inquiry by collecting their questions addressing problem scenario and categorization of those questions. As part of their syllabus, the problem is based on topics Inheritance and Genetic Technology which arouse their interest to learn thru PBL. The purpose of the study was to investigate (a) the individually generated questions and group generated questions based on Bloom's taxonomy, (b) the comparisons of types of questions that students asked individually and collaboratively based on Bloom's taxonomy, and (c) explore students' reflection in learning through the PBL approach which has guided them in knowledge construction. Data sour.....

Early  studies  of  UHIs  focused  almost  exclusively  on  large  cities  or  metropolitan regions,  owing  to  the  greater  importance  placed  on  air  circulation  and  pollution. However,  a  number  of  studies  for  small-and  medium-sized  cities  have  described problems in the air and temperature of these cities that are unique; however, their effects are becoming a common concern in smaller cities as well. This study was conducted in to examine the relevance of the level of urbanization in the city of Rawang and investigate the factors that contribute to the cause heat islands  in Rawang either  in city center  area and the rural. As a result of the impact of urbanization, the temperature pattern in the city center  area  and  rural  should  be  evaluated.  Data  gathering  involved  mobile  surveys across  Rawang  City  centre  to  rural  area,  during  arternoon  1400  to  1800  and  2000  to 2200   night   t.....

This paper proposes a smart real-time health monitoring structured for hospitals’ distributor based on wearable health data sensors. Health data were received from multiple heterogeneous wearable sensors, such as electrocardiogram (ECG), oxygen saturation sensor (SpO2), blood pressure monitor, and non-sensory measurement (text frame), from 500 patients with different symptoms. Triage level and healthcare services were identified based on the new four-level remote triage and package localization (4LRTPL). The numbers of healthcare services that represent hospital status were collected from 12 hospitals located in Baghdad city. This study constructed a decision matrix based on the crossover of ‘‘multi-healthcare services’’ and ‘‘hospital list’’ within Tier 4. The hospitals were then ranked using multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques, namely, integrated analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and vlsekriterijumskaoptimizacija i kompromisnoresenje (VIKOR). Mean ± stan.....

The Internet of Things (IoT) has been identified in various applications across different domains, such as in the healthcare sector. IoT has also been recognised for its revolution in reshaping modern healthcare with aspiring wide range prospects, including economical, technological and social. This study aims to establish IoT-based smart home security solutions for real-time health monitoring technologies in telemedicine architecture. A multilayer taxonomy is driven and conducted in this study. In the first layer, a comprehensive analysis on telemedicine, which focuses on the client and server sides, shows that other studies associated with IoT-based smart home applications have several limitations that remain unaddressed. Particularly, remote patient monitoring in healthcare applications presents various facilities and benefits by adopting IoT-based smart home technologies without compromising the security requirements and potentially large number of risks. An extensive search is con.....

The competencies of graphic design graduates are always a concern for design educators and industry professionals. However, limited evidence has been offered by past studies on the existence of a set of competency standards for new entrants to graphic design profession. Also, there seems to exist a very few studies on the tool used to measure the graduates’ competency levels that can be found from the literature review. This paper intends to describe a conceptual framework used to develop a model and instrument for competency assessment of graphic design graduates in the context of Malaysia. The conceptual framework described in this paper will include the factors that constantly affect the competencies (knowledge, skills, personal traits, self-concept, and motives) of graphic design graduates. ..
