Literasi dan Kewarganegaraan Digital: Konsep dan Strategi Implementasi dalam Pendidikan di Malaysia
No full textLiterasi dan kewarganegaraan digital tidak banyak dibincangkan dalam konteks pendidikan di Malaysia. Meskipun penggunaannya sudah meluas, namun wujud kelompangan berkaitan pemahaman serta implementasinya dalam sistem pendidikan. Kertas kerja ini menjelaskan konsep literasi dan kewarganegaraan digital serta beberapa strategi pelaksanaan literasi dan kewarganegaraan digital yang boleh dilaksanakan dalam pendidikan di Malaysia. Strategi yang diusulkan adalah pengukuhan penguasaan literasi digital, penerapan pendidikan kewarganegaraan digital dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran, mempromosikan kurikulum asas etika dan standard tingkah laku dalam platform digital, memperkasakan guru daripada aspek pemahaman literasi digital dan kewarganegaraan; serta meningkatkan pemahaman ibu bapa mengenai teknologi. Kertas konsep ini memberikan implikasi kepada usaha untuk melahirkan garis panduan tingkah laku yang penting melibatkan penggunaan media digital. Garis panduan ini akan membawa kepada perubahan cara kerja dan implementasi yang lebih berhemah kepada komuniti pendidikan di Malaysia. Cadangan lanjut boleh dibuat dengan menghubungkan pemahaman literasi dan kewarganegaraan digital dengan pemboleh ubah lain seperti jati diri, kemahiran teknologi dan semangat kenegaraan

Scoping Review: Barrier to The Knowledge, Attitude and Practice on Dengue Prevention
No full textDengue fever is a vector-borne endemic disease that affects over 30 million Malaysians. Preventing the elimination of Aedes breeding sites is a necessary precautionary measure to strengthen the knowledge, attitudes and practices of the community. The aim of this study is to identify barriers to the knowledge, attitudes and practices of dengue prevention in the community through the study of selected articles published between 2010 and 2018. The present paper carried out a scoping review of available literature using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The title and abstract of each study were screened and relevant studies were further assessed for eligibility. A total of 1352 related articles were selected for this scoping review. Of these, 349 articles were found to be in line with the study objectives and 25 articles related to dengue prevention knowledge, attitudes and practices were discussed in this study. Conclusions and Recommendations: This review suggests that factors interfering with dengue prevention behaviours are divided into two factors, namely, the internal factors that encompass attitudes and perceptions of dengue prevention behaviours, and the environmental factors such as weather, drainage systems, buildings designed with unreachable rain gutters and also poor drainage and piping system have found to be the Aedes habitats. Therefore, interventions are normally performed to prevent an incident to re-instil positive attitudes and perceptions among the community members should be strengthened through appropriate and ongoing community programs such as COMBI and Search & Destroy campaign organized by Ministry of Health Malaysia

“How” and “What” Service Quality Influence Passenger’s Satisfaction in Grab, Ride-hailing Service, Malaysia
No full textThis research integrated the SERVQUAL model into European perspective of two-dimensional service quality concept focusing on “how” and “what” service quality influence the passenger satisfaction in Grab, ride-hailing services in Malaysia. A second-order model approach was developed to conceptualize the functional quality “how” dimension and outcome quality “what” dimension. Functional quality dimension is measured by the first-orders construct of assurance, empathy, responsiveness and reliability, while the Outcome quality dimension is measured by tangible, waiting time and valence. A non-probability judgmental sampling method via questionnaire was conducted and collect from 242 Grab-ride healing passenger in Malaysia. Partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) and Statistical Programmers for Social Science software (SPSS) were employed for data analysis. From the PLS-SEM measurement model analysis, all the construct reliability and validity are met and the structural model shows a substantial explanatory power and predictive accuracy for this study. The results show all the hypotheses were supported. Therefore, it validated the European perspective of understanding “how” and “what” service quality on passenger satisfaction in Grab, ride-hailing service in Malaysia. It further confirmed the service quality in ride-hailing service is multi-dimensional which both of the functional and outcome quality brings significant influence on passenger satisfaction. The model and result provide practical guideline and theoretical insight for service providers and researchers to understand how service should be delivered and what service outcome that passenger expected for future quality and strategy improvement in order to sustain and for long term success
Lessons from Covid-19 Pandemic: Students’ Remote Learning Preferences in Malaysia
No full textThe unexpectedly disruptive period is currently being reinforced with improved ideas and approaches to meet the needs of the pupils. With pandemic tiredness and digital exhaustion being highlighted, a better understanding of students' learning preferences must be updated regularly during unprecedented times. This mixed-method study seeks to identify and explore students’ preferences based on their remote learning experiences in a public university in Malaysia. An online survey was used to gather the data for the analysis to identify the students’ preferences over the platform used, assessment types, and schedule preferences. In addition, the students’ suggestions were gathered to get more insights from their perspectives. The results revealed students preferred Google Meet, WhatsApp Messenger, and Google Classroom as the medium for delivery. On the other hand, the students favoured shorter time spent and early time slots for online class scheduling. They also preferred quizzes as the most preferred type of assessment. Lastly, students suggested considering various factors to conduct successful remote learning namely empathy from the lecturer, student engagement, students’ readiness, students’ accessibility, content delivery, flexibility, and motivation. Conclusively, the implication of this study will contribute to the body of the literature on remote learning during a pandemic. Moreover, educators in tertiary education could utilise the students’ preferences as feedback to enhance their teaching and learning delivery during remote learning. This study was limited by the absence of lecturers’ preferences and suggestions. Future studies that investigate other perspectives could create a common ground between educators and learners
