The surface pressure-mean molecular area (П-A) isotherm of surfactant (Mat 7) was obtained by using Langmuir-Blodgett technique. The characterization of Mat 7 Langmuir film was carried out in terms of П-A isotherm. The Langmuir monolayer was successfully formed by spreading the Mat 7 solution directly at air-water interface. The optimum condition such as the volume of surfactant loaded on the subphase was studied. It is observed that with increasing amount of Mat 7 on water surface, П-A isotherm shifted towards the left. The mean surface area occupied by each Mat 7 molecule was estimated by extrapolating the linear portion of each curve (between 10 and 20 mN/m) to a surface pressure equal to zero. The UV-Visible spectra of Mat 7 in chloroform showed a significant result. The absorption peak increased as more concentrated solution was added...

Kekuatan daripada Al‟Quran telah lama diketahui oleh manusia khasnya umat Islam. Selain Al‟Quran, Selawat kepada Nabi juga dipercayai mempunyai kekuatan dan memberi kesan kepada kehidupan manusia. Walaupun demikian pembuktian kekuatan Al‟Quran dan Selawat Nabi secara saintifik masih sangat kurang dijalankan. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk membuktikan kekuatan sebenar Selawat Nabi berdasarkan perubahan warna aura badan seseorang. Kajian ini adalah kajian eksperimental dan rekabentuk pemilihan responden yang digunakan adalah within subject design. Peralatan yang digunakan untuk mengumpulkan data perubahan warna aura adalah WinAura. Peralatan WinAura mengukur perubahan medan elektromagnetik berdasarkan perubahan gelombang elektrik badan. Responden terdiri daripada 15 orang Muslim dan 15 orang bukan Muslim. Kajian dijalankan di Universiti Malaysia Kelantan (UMK), dan eksperimen dijalankan pada waktu pagi. Hasil kajian mendapati majoriti warna aura responden Muslim adalah hijau sedangkan .....

In the teaching and learning of Malay language in schools, writing essays is an important component. In this study, six samples of good essays have been selected for analysis. Samples consist of students in Form 2 from a school Malaysia. Hermeneutics Pedagogical method is used to analyze student essays to identify styles of cognition and affection involved in essay writings. The results of hermeneutics pedagogy method give interpretations through style interpretation of cognition and affection experienced by students in the subconscious and conscious mind during essay writing. Results show that the students will be able to extract information and past experiences of long-term memory and short term memory assisted through the style of cognition and affection. Students then apply the elements of emotions or feelings to enable them to produce good passages...

River sand is a resource that generates income and Malaysia is abundantly endowed with it. The state of Selangor, Malaysia has many rivers and sand exploitation sites are mostly found in these rivers. An important aspect which is given great attention is the potential of the contribution to the state coffer that can be garnered from it. As Malaysia develops, the growth of the building and construction industry expand, and demand for river sand as a construction material increases. In most drainage systems in Malaysia, this resource is ubiquitous. Due to its abundance and easily-exploitable nature, this resource is often unscrupulously exploited in a way which is not to the benefit of the state government as well as to the people in general. This study analyzes the challenges faced by the industry in light of the fast paced development that is taking place in Malaysia and also the regional development in neighboring countries that also affects the health of this industry. The methodolog.....

This paper will present part of a larger study on the development and implementation of a Thinking-based Learning (TBL) instructional manual for secondary science. Two of the research objectives discussed in this paper is to determine teachers’ perceptions in conducting the TBL approach in the regular classroom and the students’ motivation after undergoing a series of TBL activities. Four teachers from 4 different schools volunteered to conduct TBL science lessons to an intact group of 187 students. Another group of 40 MRSM science teachers were given a 2 days TBL workshop. A five point Likert scale questionnaire on teachers’ perception and an intrinsic motivation inventory was used to collect data. The findings showed that despite 79% of teachers who are in favor of the TBL approach, many constrains faced by them might impede the implementation and success of the approach. 85.6% of the students were highly motivated intrinsically after undergoing the TBL lessons. It can be concl.....

Waste of resources and environmental degradation are more pronounced in tandem with growing consumerism, rising incomes, technological advances and the growth in population. One strategy to address this problem is to implement sustainable consumption practices. This study aims to identify the level of sustainable consumption practices among teachers, sustainable practices according to race and income. Survey method was used involving a total of 268 teachers from eight secondary schools in Puchong selected by non probability sampling. The result shows a high level of sustainable practices by respondents. It was found that the main factors influencing internal sustainable practices are to save resources and reduce waste, while the main factors influencing external sustainable practices are the attitude to put financial ability as a constraint to cope with sustainable practices that should be done. The findings also revealed that the distribution of crosspractice sustainable use is higher.....

Kajian ini bertujuan menguji pengaruh kecerdasan emosi dan personaliti terhadap pencapaian akademik pelajar sekolah menengah. Kecerdasan emosi terdiri daripada lima konstruk iaitu kesedaran kendiri, pengurusan kendiri, motivasi, empati dan kemahiran sosial. Faktor personaliti pula terdiri daripada ekstrovert, kerisauan, pemikiran tegas, tidak bergantung dan kawalan kendiri. Faktor demografi dalam kajian ini terdiri daripada jantina dan lokasi sekolah. Kajian ini menggunakan soal selidik kecerdasan emosi yang diubah suai dan dibina sendiri oleh pengkaji berdasarkan teori Goleman. Soal selidik personaliti menggunakan "The Sixteen Personality Factor Questionnaire (J 6FP) " oleh Cattell. Subjek kajian ini seramai 435 pelajar tingkatan empat iaitu 210 lelaki dan 225 perempuan. Data kajian dianalisis menggunakan ujian korelasi Pearson, ujian regrasi berganda (stepwise), MANOVA dan ujian-t. Keputusan kajian menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara kecerdasan emosi dan konstruk kec.....
