A set of questionnaires was adapted from Malaysian Palm Oil Research and Development Board (MPOB), Universiti Putra Malaysia 1992. The sample consists of 40 independent oil palm smallholders respectively 20 Independent Malay and 20 Independent Indian smallholders. Descriptive statistic and inference was used to analyse the different practice of technology among smallholders. The result shows Independent Malay frequently guided by MPOB compare the Indian smallholders. However the technology practices by the Malay smallholders are less efficient compare the Indian smallholders. Therefore, the MPOB should monitor and make sure the Malay smallholders fully practice what was guided by them in order to increase their produc.....

Journal of Sports Science and Physical Education 5(1): 1-8, 2016 - The purpose of this study was to compare the acquisition of performing the squat technique using visual and verbal feedback among eleven years old children. Thirty standard 5 students from a semi urban primary school were recruited for this study. Each participant performed the squat without any provision of feedback in the pre-test. Their performance was assessed using the Motion Competency Screen (MCS) scale. The pre-test scores were used to divide the participants randomly into three groups (i.e., visual-, verbal-feedback and control). During the acquisition phase (two weeks), the visual group (video recordings of their performance) received feedback about the correct squat technique by a qualified trainer while the verbal feedback group received verbal instructions and feedback from the same instructor on their performance. The control group did not participate in any trials during acquisition phase. All participant.....

This research was conducted to qualitatively gauge the influence of the use of Jigsaw in the teaching and learning of primary science on students’ attitudes towards science. A total of 12 Year-5 students (9 girls and 3 boys) in a low enrolment school or its Malay equivalent, Sekolah Kurang Murid (SKM) classified by the Ministry of Education as schools with less than 150 students were involved in this research. The two-week intervention consisted of three cycles of Jigsaw in the learning of primary science. Basically, one cycle of Jigsaw entails students working in their respective home groups, students moving to their respective expert groups to work on the teacher-prepared tasks, and students returning to their respective home groups to take turn to share what they have learned in their respective expert groups. Preand post-intervention interviews were conducted with six of the Year- 5 students. The interviews were transcribed and analyzed through a recursive process. While the anal.....
