Development of leaf shape model using B-Spline generative shape method and leaf shape synthesis system

Abstract

The aim of this research is to develop model of leaf shape outline drawing from botanical textual description. The B-spline generative shape method (BsGSM) and the leaf shape synthesis system were used in this research. The approach was based on merging tip, side and base shape, plus marginal details. The structure of the system consists of three main parts which were the text processing module, shape template and drawing module. Two expert botanists were referred to assess the drawing result to ensure the result is parallel with a botanical point of view. The findings show that the use of BsGSM produced good result except for some minor visual error. A similar result was also obtained while producing the details of the leaf. The shape template appeared simple and very useful for easier information retrieval. As a conclusion, the BsGSM was practical to model and produce the details of leaf. The developed leaf shape synthesis system facilitates amateur and novice botanists to readily se.....

On generalization to develop model of details of the leaf margin using the B-Spline offset research on the leaf shape modeling

Norazman Arbin

Abstract

The aim of this research is to develop a new model of details for the leaf serration before wrapping it onto the overall leaf margin. For this purpose, we used the offset of the original leaf shape outline. The model of the leaf consists of several leaf parts are represented with B-spline curves which also represent the offset. We propose a new algorithm to represent the pattern of the details. The details are applied as an offset to the underlying curve. An algorithm how the pattern combines to the margin was also explained. The results of the drawings are divided into three categories: satisfactory, acceptable, and unsatisfactory. Expert botanist was referred to assess the drawing result to ensure the result is parallel with a botanical point of view. The findings show that the geometry of the details was satisfactory, except for some minor distortion. As the implication, this research allows novice botanists and amateurs to readily see a picture which they might find it hard to visu.....

The effects of self-efficacy, social support, experience and entrepreneurship education on students motivation in social entrepreneurship among undergraduates

Nur Athirah Norazman

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the factors that most contributing to the students' motivation toward social entrepreneurship among undergraduates. A total of 1220 students from fifteen selected public universities in Malaysia under the Entrepreneurial Act Us Program (Enactus) were involved in this research. This research focused on four factors that most contribute in students’ motivation toward social entrepreneurship which is self-efficacy, social support, experience and entrepreneurship education. A set of questionnaire was utilized to collect data. Descriptive statistics such as mean, frequency, standard deviation and percentages were used to identify the level of students’ motivation toward social entrepreneurship, self-efficacy, social support, experience and entrepreneurship education. Inferential statistics including simple linear regression and correlations were used to test the research hypotheses of the research. The results show that there is a significant e.....

Pembangunan aktiviti pembelauan cahaya menggunakan rambut Fizik KSSM dan persepsi kebolehgunaannya dalam kalangan guru pelatih Fizik

Nurul Shamilah Norazman

Abstract

Tujuan kajian ini adalah untuk membangunkan aktiviti pembelauan cahaya menggunakan rambut Fizik KSSM dan mendapatkan persepsi kebolehgunaannya dalam kalangan guru pelatih Fizik. Aktiviti pembelauan cahaya menggunakan rambut dibangunkan agar penggunaan rambut sebagai dwicelah dapat memperluaskan lagi dalam menitikberatkan kepentingan kesan pembelauan dalam teknologi pengukuran objek halus. Kajian ini berpandukan reka bentuk kajian pembangunan menggunakan model ADDIE. Proses kesahan aktiviti dan soal selidik melibatkan penilaian tiga orang pakar. Aktiviti ini memperoleh indeks CVI dan indeks persetujuan bersama pada kesahan muka aktiviti dan kesahan kandungan aktiviti adalah 1, manakala nilai pada soal selidik pula memperolehi kesahan muka dan kesahan kandungan juga adalah 1. Seterusnya, kebolehpercayaan aktiviti ditafsirkan sangat baik dengan nilai yang diperoleh α = 0.95. Melalui analisis kebolehgunaan aktiviti dalam kajian sebenar, min bagi setiap konstruk yang diperolehi .....

Penggunaan kaedah inovasi sambung dan baca Bahasa Arab (SaBBAr) dalam meningkatkan kemahiran membaca perkataan Bahasa Arab murid di Sekolah Rendah

Norazman Syafri

Abstract

Inovasi “SaBBAr” ialah singkatan kepada ayat Sambung dan Baca Bahasa Arab yang mengaplikasikan padanan huruf rumi-arab. Inovasi ini dijalankan untuk meningkatkan kemahiran murid membaca perkataan bahasa arab dengan menggunakan Kaedah “SaBBAr”. Berdasarkan pemerhatian dan refleksi dalam pembelajaran dan pemudahcaraan, terdapat murid yang masih lagi tidak menguasai kemahiran membaca perkataan bahasa arab terutama berlaku kepada murid bukan islam dan murid pemulihan. Oleh itu, teknik pengajaran baharu dengan menggunakan pendekatan pembelajaran gamifikaksi dalam Realiti Maya (VR) dan Realiti Terimbun (AR) iaitu kaedah “SaBBAr” telah direka untuk menyelesaikan masalah ini. Dalam kajian ini, model Kemmis & Mc Taggart (1988) telah digunakan dalam melaksanakan langkah merancang, melaksana, memerhati dan merefleksi. Instrumen pemerhatian, temubual, ujian lisan dan analisis dokumen telah digunakan oleh pengkaji untuk mengumpul maklumat dan data kajian. Dua kitaran kajian telah diguna.....
