    Parental Involvement In Their Children’s English As A Second Language (Esl) Learning In Primary Schools In Malaysia
    (2024-07)
    Alias, Nurul Zulaikha
    This study examines parental involvement in their children’s ESL learning in Malaysian primary schools, specifically focusing on the B40 (bottom 40%) and T20 (top 20%) socioeconomic groups. Employing qualitative interviews with 12 participants, the research explores the diverse roles, perspectives, and perceived effectiveness of parental involvement in children’s ESL learning. The research objectives for this study aim to i) explore parents’ perceptions regarding their involvement in their children’s ESL learning, ii) investigate factors that influence PI in their children’s ESL learning, and iii) identify the strategies that parents use to involve themselves in their children’s ESL learning. To achieve the objectives of the study, purposive sampling are utilised. Thematic analysis is employed as the analysis method to identify patterns and insights from participant responses. The findings revealed that participants from both groups shared mutual perceptions, highlighting the importance of parental involvement in children’s ESL learning. However, their involvement varies due to several reasons, namely time constraints, knowledge in English, financial constraints, level of education. Despite these differences, both groups believed in the positive impact of their involvement. The results demonstrate that Malaysian parents actively involve themselves in their children’s ESL learning.

    Moderating Role Of Supporting Work Environment On The Relationship Between Green Training And Development, Organizational Learning, Green Leadership, Employee Commitment And Green Performance Of Public Firms In Uae
    (2024-05)
    Ansaari, Awad Abdelaziz Awad Nadir Al Ansaari
    The issue of ecological sustainability has garnered significant attention from policymakers, environmental activists, and other individuals due to its long-term impact on the environment and daily life. For this reason, the role of public sector organizations is evident, as they have a major role to play in economic progression and social welfare while utilizing various natural resources that may contribute to environmental damage. For this reason, a substantial attention is required towards the green performance outlook for the public firms. The key purpose of this research is to examine the role of green leadership, green training and development, organizational learning, and organizational commitment towards green performance of public firms as working in the regional context of UAE. It further explores the moderating effect of supportive work environment on the relationship between green performance and its determinants. Using the quantitative research technique, the data was collected through a questionnaire technique where a valid sample of 284 respondents has been tested empirically. Moreover, data analysis has been conducted through descriptive statistics, correlational analysis, normality testing, and two step approach (i.e., measurement model and structural model). The results under measurement model reflect that there is no issue related to reliability and validity, internal consistency, convergent validity, and discriminant validity of the latent constructs.

    Penggunaan Fauna Sebagai Makanan Dan Ubatan Dalam Kalangan Orang Asli Di Temengor, - Perak Dan Gua Musang, Kelantan
    (2017-02)
    Ismail, Siti Zubaidah
    Kajian etnozoologi telah dijalankan di lapan buah penempatan Orang Asli di Temengor, Perak dan Gua Musang, Kelantan yang terdiri dari suku Jahai dan Temiar. Maklumat berkaitan penggunaan haiwan liar sebagai makanan dan ubatan telah diperoleh melalui temu bual mendalam dalam kalangan tok batin, pengamal perubatan, bidan, pemburu, kaum wanita dan lelaki, serta golongan belia. Hasil kajian mendapati masyarakat Orang Asli di kedua-dua kawasan kajian masih bergantung kepada haiwan liar sebagai sumber utama makanan dan perubatan mereka. Sejumlah 86 spesies haiwan liar didapati telah digunakan sebagai sumber makanan. Daripada jumlah tersebut, 17 spesies haiwan liar telah digunakan untuk merawat 12 jenis penyakit seperti asma, batuk, keracunan, rheumatik dan masalah berkaitan kesuburan lelaki. Manakala kajian komposisi nutrien (analisis proksimat) dilakukan terhadap 12 spesies fauna yang kerap diambil sebagai makanan, mengikut kaedah masakan yang biasa, iaitu kaedah goreng, rebus dan bakar. Masakan bagi kesemua 12 spesies haiwan tersebut mempunyai nisbah 00-3 kepada (1)-6 yang ideal iaitu kurang daripada 4. Manakala nisbah PUF A kepada SF A, ikan Puyu (Anabas testudineusi goreng, Belut (Monopterus alba) rebus dan Siput sedut (Brotia costula) rebus lebih rendah daripada 004. Kaedah masakan secara rebus menyumbang nilai nutrien terbaik berbanding kaedah masakan lain. Hasil kajian ini, menunjukkan komuniti Orang Asli masih bergantung kepada haiwan liar untuk makanan dan ubatan tradisional. Xl

    (2001-07)
    Ismail, Abd. Rahman
    Kajian ini meneliti, menganalisis, menghurai dan membincangkan ciri-ciri seru Silat Melayu yang terdapat pada zaman tradisi dan. membandingkan manifestasinya pada zaman moden. Beberapa teks sastera Melayu dan Nusantara klasik terpilih - seperti Hikayat RajaRaja Pasai, Sulalatus Salatin, Hikayat Hang Tuah, Hikayat Patani, Tuhfat AI-Najis, Syair Siti Zubaidah Perang Cina, Tjindur Mata, dan Hikayat Awang Sulong Merah Muda -- dijadikan sumber bagi data tentang seni Silat zaman tradisi; manakala Seni Silat Gayung Fatani dijadikan sampel untuk mengkaji amalan seni tersebut pada masa kini. Teori I pendekatan Sejarah, Sosiologi Sastera, demo Tekstuai Intertekstual diterapkan untuk mengenal pasti dan menginterpretasi ciri-ciri dan fungsi seni Silat zaman tradisi; manakala teori / pendekatan Folkloristik diterapkan untuk mengenal pasti dan menginterpretasi ciri-ciri dan fungsi seni Silat masa kini.

    Nitrogen Doped Titania-Phosphorylated Chitosan For The Photocatalytic Decontamination Of Synthetic Dyes
    (2024-07)
    Subramaniam, Sumaliny
    The aim of this research is to develop a novel bifunctional photocatalyst composed of nitrogen-doped titania (N-doped TiO2) and phosphorylated chitosan (PCS) nanocomposite for the removal of Acid Red 88 (AR 88) and Methylene Blue (MB) from aqueous solutions. Phosphorylation of chitosan was successfully modified through solvothermal treatment using phosphoric acid in a closed Teflon-lined stainless-steel autoclave. Subsequently, the obtained PCS was incorporated with N-doped TiO2 to synthesize the N-doped TiO2-phosphorylated chitosan (NTP) nanocomposite via solvothermal treatment. The synthesized photocatalyst was thoroughly characterized using various analytical techniques, including scanning electron microscopy with electron dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Results indicated that the nanocomposite exhibited enhanced surface area and functional groups. The photocatalytic activity of NTP towards MB and AR 88 dyes were best described by the Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic model. Furthermore, regeneration and reusability studies demonstrated the excellent performance of NTP as a photocatalyst.
