1 | 2007 thesis | The effect of a three-week multisensory training program for postural sway control Lee, Ai Choo Evaluating postural sway parameters can play an integral part in a rehabilitation program. One device capable of quantifying postural sway measures is the Chattecx Dynamic Balance System (CDBS). The purpose of the Study 1 was to determine the test-retest reliability and the discriminant validity of the CDBS. Forty non-injured females, ranging in age from 20 to 49 years (mean age 30.03 ± 6.95 years) were randomly assigned according to the hours spent per week practicing sporting activities. This study demonstrated that the CDBS revealed good test-retest reliability (ICCs > 0.80), but it did not have good discriminant validity in distinguishing the effect of hours spent at sporting activities per week for postural sway control between Group 1 (exercise five hours or more) and Group 2 (exercise less than five hours) when testing static and dynamic balance. Study 2 used a randomized controlled intervention to investigate whether a threeweek multisensory training program would lead to a de..... 1256 hits |
2 | 2016 thesis | The effect of games on year three pupils' vocabulary acquisition, interest, motivation and attitudes in the Chinese language classroom Choo, Kan Fah The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of the use of games as a strategy during practice for improving vocabulary acquisition of year three pupils in the Chinese language classroom. Quasi experimental was used in the research. This research also sought to examine the effects of game-based practice on pupils' interest, motivation and attitudes. Two different teaching practices were adopted, that are game-based practice for the experimental group and conventional practice for the control group. Each group had 30 pupils who were randomly assigned. Data was collected through a vocabulary acquisition test, a questionnaire on pupils' interest, motivation and attitudes, focus group interviews with pupils and the experimental group teacher's interview. Statistical results revealed that there was no significant difference between the two groups on vocabulary acquisition test. However, the middle vocabulary level pupils in the experimental group made significant improvemen..... 1559 hits |
3 | 2020 thesis | Sensitivity optimisation of hybrid calixarene-reduced graphene oxide langmuir-blodgett thin films via langmuir, optical, structural and elektrical characterisations Lim, Darwina Choo Kheng The study aimed to investigate the characteristics of calixarene, reduced graphene oxide
(rGO) and their composite in order to optimise the sensitivity of the composite. The calixarenes
(calix[4]arene, calix[6]arene and calix[8]arene) and rGO were prepared in solution
to form a Langmuir film by using Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) trough. The values of 30 mN/m and
15 mN/m were selected for calixarenes and rGO respectively for the thin film deposition. The
surface potential (?V) and effective dipole moment (µ?) of calixarenes were also
investigated. The optical properties of calixarene in solution and thin film were
studied using UV-Visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and compared to ensure the stability of
the thin film. Meanwhile, the rGO thin film was characterised with UV-Vis spectroscopy for t..... 705 hits |
4 | 2021 thesis | Development and the effect of mobile enthalpy game application on matriculation students achievement in thermochemical equation Choo, Sze Yee The purpose of this study is to develop a mobile enthalpy game application (MEGA)
and study its effect on matriculation students’ achievement in writing thermochemical equations.
MEGA is an Android game application developed for student to acquire skills to write
thermochemical equations. It is developed based on ADDIE’s, Kwon’s and the game-based learning
engineering models. MEGA was validated in terms of content, pedagogy and multimedia by using
Cohen’s kappa agreement coefficient. Reliability of MEGA is determined by using the reliability
coefficient. This quantitative study employed time-series quasi experimental design involving
36 students in the control group (PowerPoint slides) and 36 students in the experimental group
(MEGA). Samples are chosen by using a simple random sampling technique. The effect of MEGA versus
PowerPoint slides on student achievement of thermochemical ..... 854 hits |
5 | 2021 thesis | Assessing financial and macroeconomic factors influencing the Islamic Real Estate Investment Trusts stock return in Malaysia Choo, William Keng Soon The Islamic Real Estate Investment Trust (i-REIT) serves as an alternative Islamic
investment instrument to sukuk and shariah compliant stock, which observes i-REIT
experiencing a significant growth and demand in portfolio property value and Islamic
market capitalization. The attractiveness of i-REIT has made it to become one of the
common real estate investments apart from the physical property investment with a
long-term and cheaper capital for property ownership. Likewise, the continual
expansion of the i-REIT market in Malaysia is making great financial motivation that
expands the investment spectrum. Therefore, the need to study the driving financial and
macroeconomic interaction force with i-REIT stock return, which in turn further
contributes to the Islamic finance literature. This study was confined to nine study
variables and two latent which the financial and macroeconomic factors. The financial
factors comprise the long-term bond yield, systematic risk, stock mark..... 1690 hits |

7 | 2006 thesis | The effectiveness of graphic organizers in comprehending literary texts Ooi, Judy Suan Choo The implementation of the Literature Component in the new Malaysian syllabus for English Language
provides ample impetus for the promotion of a reading culture and improvement of competence in the
English Language. Therefore, it is important for ESL students in Malaysia to study literature.
However, this poses problems for most students as a majority of them have not been exposed to any
genre of Literature in their six years of primary education. Thus this study was postulated to
explore whether graphic organizers could be used as a tool in enhancing the learners' comprehension
of literary texts such as a novel. It also attempts to find out if this teaching strategy could be
utilized in the classroom to promote better comprehension of this literary text. Both the learning
and teaching aspects are essential in this study as there is a wealth of knowledge to be gained
from the proceedings in the classroom. Besides that, this study was conducted over a perio..... 103 hits |
