Exploring Student Emotional Experiences In Mathematics And Statistics Courses Via Online Learning

2024-12-13T03:33:45+00:00

Online learning is now generally acknowledged and seen as a crucial strategy for overcoming the drawbacks of on-campus instruction, particularly in higher education. Online learning adaptability provides students with a wide range of placement options, from on-the-go placements in the midst of their daily lives to dedicated time and space for learning. Since student emotional involvement has been linked to learning and academic success, it is crucial to investigate student emotions. Therefore, this study uses a factor analysis approach to explore the emotional experiences of all Universiti Poly-Tech Malaysia (UPTM) students that enrolled in Mathematics and Statistics courses for the academic semester of April 2022. The students have completed a survey-adapted version of the Achievement Emotions Questionnaire (AEQ-S) consisting of 24 items that surveyed emotional experiences before, during and after online classes. Demographic information was collected, encompassing variables like cumulative grade point average (CGPA), online learning tools, internet stability and measurement of students' enjoyment, pride, anxiety, anger, hopelessness, and boredom. A ten-point Likert scale ranging from "strongly disagree" to "strongly agree" measured the respondents' agreement with each item. The result demonstrated that emotions towards an online-based learning system are multifaceted, with three components explored, namely "Frustration and Disengagement", "Motivation and Achievement", and "Anxiety and Apprehension".

Challenging Behaviors: A Literature Review

2024-12-28T22:55:38+00:00

Challenging behavior in educational settings presents significant concerns for teachers and students alike, impacting the learning environment and overall educational experience. This literature review examines the definitions and contexts of challenging behavior, identifying it as any conduct that disrupts learning or poses risks to students and their peers.

Effective management strategies are crucial for educators to foster a safe and productive classroom atmosphere. The review discusses the importance of early identification and intervention, emphasizing the role of Positive Behavior Support (PBS) and token economy systems in promoting prosocial behaviors. It concludes that while challenging behaviors can be altered through targeted approaches, collaboration among educators, students, and families is essential to mitigate these issues and enhance student well-being and academic success.

Challenges And Satisfaction Of Malaysian Lecturers In Delivering Online Classes From Home

2024-11-25T23:12:46+00:00

The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the educational landscape, compelling Malaysian lecturers to shift from traditional face-to-face instruction to online teaching. This rapid transition introduced various challenges and opportunities that have significantly influenced lecturers' satisfaction. Key issues include technological barriers such as inadequate internet connectivity and limited digital proficiency, which hinder effective student engagement. Additionally, the home environment, with its inherent distractions, exacerbated stress and feelings of isolation among educators, further complicating their teaching experience. Despite these challenges, online teaching offers flexibility in time management and the potential to reach a broader audience, which can enhance job satisfaction. However, the balance between these benefits and the obstacles faced remains delicate, particularly when lecturers must manage both professional responsibilities and personal well-being.

The literature highlights the need for improved institutional support and comprehensive training programs to enhance digital literacy among educators. Moreover, the psychological impact of online teaching, including feelings of isolation and decreased motivation, has emerged as a critical concern. Addressing these issues is essential for maintaining educational quality and lecturer satisfaction in online teaching environments. Further research is needed to explore the long-term effects of online teaching on lecturer satisfaction and student outcomes, as well as the specific coping strategies lecturers employ to navigate these challenges effectively.

Developing A Predatory Journal Finder: Innovations In Safeguarding Research Quality

2024-11-25T22:51:50+00:00

With the proliferation of Open Access journals and the shift to online publishing, academic publishing has changed dramatically. The number of journals has expanded significantly as the publishing business has evolved. There are currently more journals where authors can publish their work. With the numerous advantages of open-access publication for writers and readers, credible publishers are launching hundreds of new open-access journals. However, due to their increased popularity, less respectable journals have emerged, abusing the author-pay model and jeopardizing the integrity of published research. They do not adhere to academic publishing norms; they usually publish a paper quickly. Publishing research findings in such publications harms the writers and undermines public trust in scientific research. As a result, an application was developed to detect predatory journals, which will guide researchers in evaluating a journal or publisher. The apps will help users identify predatory publications and determine whether or not a journal is legitimate by checking databases such as SCOPUS and Web of Science. To accomplish the goal of this study, Beall's List and other lists of predatory publishers will be employed.

Mainstream School Teacher Understanding and Acceptance of Inclusive Education in Malaysia.

2024-12-29T03:08:03+00:00

This study examines mainstream school teachers' understanding and acceptance of inclusive education in Malaysia, involving a sample of 300 teachers. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through the Inclusive Practice Questionnaire and analysed using descriptive, frequency, correlation, and regression analyses. The results reveal that mainstream teachers face significant challenges in adhering to Malaysia's Special Education Needs (SEN) policy, including insufficient resources, large class sizes, inadequate training, and unclear policy guidelines. Although difficulties with parental involvement were noted, they were less significant compared to other challenges. The findings align with existing literature, which identifies insufficient training and resource limitations as primary barriers to effective policy implementation. However, some studies suggest that improved school leadership, collaboration, and teaching practices could alleviate these challenges despite resource constraints. Addressing these issues necessitates clearer policy directives, better resource allocation, reduced class sizes, and ongoing professional development for educators. Enhanced guidance and support systems are crucial for making Malaysia's SEN policy more effective and ensuring successful inclusive education.
