Mathematics courseware for dyscalculia students (MCDYs)
type: item
description: MCDys is a courseware created as a learning tool for students with dyscalculia. The syllabus is developed based on the Linus module that is provided by the Kementerian Pendidikan Malaysia (KPM). Dyscalculia is a term used for learners that have a disability in learning mathematics. In developing this courseware, ADDIE model is used. ADDIE is a framework that many instructional designers and developers use to develop the courses. There are five stages in ADDIE Model which are analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. To design the interface, Schneiderman's eight golden rules of interface design is used. Schneiderman's eight golden rules include striving for consistency, enabling frequent users to use shortcuts, offering informative feedback, designing dialogue to yield closure, offering simple error handling, permitting easy reversal of actions, supporting internal locus of control and reducing short-term memory load. The content of the courseware uses interactive approaches such as video, animation, and quizzes, and game-based activities to encourage users’ understanding and grab their attention. User evaluation and expert evaluation were conducted to test the effectiveness and acceptance of the interface, usability, activity, navigation, multimedia, sound, image, text, animation, and video. The results show that the courseware has the highest score for usability score with a mean of 4.6(SD=0.55). For future enhancement, more animation will be explored to suit the dyscalculia students’ learning.

Perceived challenges towards Education 4.0 implementation among academicians: A preliminary analysis
type: item
description: The Industrial Revolution caused major changes in the economy and advancement in technology. Specifically, IR4.0 stimulates the development of Education 4.0, in which the use of information, internet and technology become part of the teaching and learning process allowing students to learn at any time through digital platforms. Promoting for Education 4.0 involved challenges particularly constant changes in the teaching and learning techniques, and the facilities to cater to the technology demands. This study attempts to assess perceived challenges towards Education 4.0 implementation among the academicians at a comprehensive university and to explore the relationship between gender and perceived challenges among them. Based on purposive sampling, online questionnaires were distributed via google form to a population of 352 academicians in the selected comprehensive university. Data gathered from 127 responses were analysed using SPSS. The findings indicate the majority of the respondents perceived IT infrastructure as the main challenge, while the skills of individuals are the least challenges towards Education 4.0 implementation. However, there is no evidence of a significant association between gender and any of the perceived challenges items. Thus, regardless of male or female academicians, they have a similar perception of the challenges towards Education 4.0 implementation. The findings assist the Education 4.0 stakeholders to look into those perceived challenges and take necessary actions such as increasing budget allocation for IT facilities, as a support towards the success of Education 4.0 implementation. Future research may be undertaken to examine more specific infrastructure challenges in implementing education 4.0 at other comprehensive universities as well as at research universities and focused universities.

5S Practice: Its effects on quality and productivity of work among UiTM support staff
type: item
description: The 5S concept, practiced in Japan since the early 1980s, is the most widely accomplished practice in organizations in both the public and private sectors. To create a more comfortable, organized, clean, safe,neat and quality work culture within an organization, 5S practices were then introduced in Malaysia in the mid-1980s. It is able to define, achieve and ultimately maintain a better standard of work culture while increasing the value of employees in an organization. In this regard, the study was conducted to determine the effects of implementing 5S practices on productivity and quality of work among UiTM Cawangan Pulau Pinang’s support staff. The questionnaire was distributed to 60 respondents working in the workshops, laboratories, and kitchens at UiTM Cawangan Pulau Pinang. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 21. This study found that the effects of 5S practice among UiTM Cawangan Pulau Pinang support staff in terms of quality and productivity of work were quite excellent, reflecting the improvement in the work quality and productivity among support staff since 5S was implemented. This indirectly improves quality and productivity of laboratories, workshops, and kitchens services. The campus management needs to recover the lack of 5S practice to optimise the work quality and productivity among the support staff.

Understanding Landscape Architecture Industry Needs: A Preliminary Review of Graduates Communication Proficiency Model (CPM)
type: item
description: Communication is a fundamental part of the working environment that comprises interpersonal relations and communication between groups and individuals and other social interactions within the active community. Communication and soft skills have become an important issue due to the lack of study and development, especially in the Landscape Architectural practice. It can be seen that the lack of communication and soft skills by current graduates has affected employability leading to a large quantity of unemployment and lack of advancement within the landscape industry. Hence, to keep up with the current trends of what employers seek within these landscape architecture graduates, it is believed that a paradigm shift in the training of students must take into account the development of Communication Skills within the curriculum to help aid the development of graduate employability skills. A method of assessing communication skills is also required to rate a Landscape Architect’s level of communication competence to further enhance the graduates’ career in the industry.

Innovative in Teaching Mandarin through Scaffolding Strategies
type: item
description: The arrival of advanced communication and information technologies has changed the method of teaching and learning in the 21st century. Thus, different types of impactful teaching approaches have been applied by educators to ensure that the focus of education is not only to deliver knowledge but also to cultivate students’ problem solving, creativity, collaboration and communication skills. In view of a subject which is totally new to students, they need time to learn and practise the skills learned which include listening, speaking, reading and writing. However, the credit hour for the particular subject is only two hours per week, which is a challenge for the lecturer to guide students in achieving the learning outcomes of the subject and to implement the teaching and learning process. Therefore, the scaffolding teaching method was chosen as an action research to see the impact on student’s learning. The focus of the study was Introductory Mandarin Level 1. The new roles of teachers were applied through a mechanism including self-learning, group discussion, and presentation. Lecturer had designed and created self-learning notes as a reference to help students understand the particular lesson, facilitated students using effective questioning skills and summarized the lesson at the end to scaffold students’ learning. At the end of the semester, students were required to answer a survey questionnaire regarding teaching and learning. This approach gave a positive result which showed that it managed to motivate students to participate in class. Students enjoyed the activities in class and were more active and confident to express their ideas as they understood the topic well during their discussion rather than one way lecture in the class.

Bolstering Transformation Delivery through Employee Engagement and Innovative Work Behaviour in Malaysia Public Services: A Conceptual Paper
type: item
description: The debut of National Transformation 2050 validates that Malaysia is committed in standing tall amongst the developed nations. Over the years, numerous transformation programs have been introduced to enhance the wellbeing of the nation and its people. Among the agenda is to overcome challenges in public services delivery which include the improvement of services by the counter service team and frontliners as well as the enhancement of reliability and integrity, issues of productivity, and many more. Public servants are an important source of innovation for an organisation that needs to be continuously nurtured. To accelerate the outcome, engagement was reportedly found to be the key enabler for sustainable success in any change or transformational-related event. Fostering employee engagement will nurture many prodigious advantages such as augmenting people’s innovative mindset and will greatly enhance the likelihood for a successful transformation program to happen. Along with the derivation of theoretical concepts guided by Social Exchange Theory (SET), the proposed concept is further reinforced through the best practices obtained from developed countries that have adapted best practices in employee engagement and innovation. The critical key area to a developed nation is always the wellbeing of its public services. In shaping Malaysia to be one of the most prominent figures in the future, everyone needs to be a builder.
