Abstract

In this study, a self-reliant learning strategy was used in the teaching and learning of a Mathematics module at a local technical institution to investigate its effectiveness in improving the students' performance in descriptive statistics. This study also examined how group work activity, when integrated with the self-reliant strategy, can contribute to students' development in directing their learning. Forty-two students were observed on how a self-reliant learning strategy affects their performance. It is found that the self-reliant learning strategy had a positive impact on the students' performance in their learning of descriptive statistics and that group work activity improved students' learning skills, especially on planning, monitoring, and evaluating their course of learning on their own. The findings of this study hoped to provide pedagogical alternatives and persuade teachers to consider the self-reliant learning strategy that promotes flexibility in the course of the students' learning.

Abstract

This paper aims to explore the experiences of students with visual impairment (VI) within their built school environment. A qualitative case study of four students with VI from three secondary government schools were interviewed following site observations of their schools. The study found that the students with VI do face anxiety towards their built school environment alongside the barriers they faced which can be thematically categorized into physical barriers, auditory barriers and lighting barriers. The study also revealed that many aspects of the school buildings and environment presented challenges and are intimidating to maneuver for VI students. The study has implications in expanding the field of study into Universal Design within Brunei Darussalam where future research can approach UD and it’s aspects in depth. Finally, the country had started dialogue regarding accessibility and its significance in the country’s National Vision Plan 2035 and the study hopes to bring insight into the types of barriers the built environment can have on students with VI and signal future development projects forward.
