Abstract

This study aims to analyze students’ perceptions of scientific writing learning within an advanced and innovative learning framework. The research employed a descriptive quantitative approach using a Likert-scale questionnaire completed by 202 students. The data were analyzed descriptively to obtain the mean, standard deviation, and percentage distribution across five main aspects: participation and interaction, clarity of materials and use of examples, feedback and collaborative guidance, development of academic skills, and time management and variation in innovative learning methods. The results indicate that all aspects achieved mean scores above 3.00 (on a 1–4 scale), which are categorized as high. The highest scores were obtained for teaching method variation (3.14) and material implementation support (3.14), while the lowest score was found in learning time allocation (3.06). Although the majority of students selected the “Agree” category, the proportion of “Strongly Agree” responses remained relatively low (13–17%), suggesting the need for improvement in time allocation, feedback quality, and diversity of examples provided. This study underscores the importance of interactive learning design, consistent use of formative feedback, and the implementation of innovative learning methods to enhance the quality of students’ learning experiences. These findings can serve as a reference for teachers and schools in designing more effective and sustainable scientific writing instruction strategies.

Abstract

Bahasa Kedayan merupakan salah satu bahasa minoriti yang dituturkan oleh masyarakat Kedayan di Negara Brunei Darussalam. Namun, penggunaan bahasa ini semakin berkurangan, khususnya dalam kalangan generasi muda yang lebih cenderung bertutur dalam Bahasa Melayu Brunei atau Bahasa Inggeris. Kajian terdahulu oleh Martin (1995) menganggarkan tahap vitaliti bahasa ini pada tahap 3.0, manakala Noor-Azam (2016) mengandaikan ia menurun kepada tahap 2.0. Walau bagaimanapun, kedua-dua kajian tersebut tidak menyatakan dengan jelas rangka kerja yang digunakan dan tidak membentangkan data lapangan. Oleh itu, kajian ini bertujuan untuk menilai tahap vitaliti semasa Bahasa Kedayan dengan menggunakan soal selidik yang diedarkan kepada masyarakat Kedayan di Negara Brunei Darussalam. Soal selidik ini disusun berdasarkan dua rangka kerja utama, iaitu skala UNESCO-LVE (2011) dan EGIDS (Expanded Graded Intergenerational Disruption Scale). Data yang diperoleh dianalisis secara deskriptif bagi mengenal pasti corak penggunaan, sikap bahasa dan persepsi masyarakat Kedayan terhadap pemeliharaan bahasa ini. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa Bahasa Kedayan berada pada tahap 3.0 (Pasti Terancam) menurut UNESCO dan antara tahap 6b hingga 7 (Terancam/Peralihan) menurut EGIDS. Bahasa ini tidak lagi diturunkan secara semula jadi kepada generasi muda dan penggunaannya semakin terhad dalam kehidupan seharian. Kajian ini turut mengenal pasti beberapa faktor yang menyumbang kepada kemerosotan penggunaan Bahasa Kedayan serta mencadangkan Langkah-langkah strategik ke arah pelestarian dan revitalisasi bahasa tersebut. The Current Vitality of the Kedayan Language in Brunei Darussalam Abstract The Kedayan language is a minority language spoken by the Kedayan community in Brunei Darussalam. However, its usage has been in steady decline, particularly among the younger generation who tend to use Brunei Malay or English in daily communication. Previous studies by Martin (1995) estimated the language’s vitality was at level 3.0, while Noor-Azam (2016) later suggested a further decline to level 2.0. However, neither study explicitly stated the framework used, nor did they include empirical data to support their conclusions. Therefore, this study aims to assess the current vitality level of the Kedayan language using a structured questionnaire distributed among the Kedayan speakers in Brunei Darussalam. The questionnaire was designed based on two major frameworks: the UNESCO Language Vitality and Endangerment (LVE) scale and the Expanded Graded Intergenerational Disruption Scale (EGIDS). The data were analysed descriptively to identify patterns of language use, speaker attitudes, and community perceptions regarding the maintenance of their heritage language. Findings indicate that the Kedayan language currently stands at level 3.0 (Definitely Endangered) according to UNESCO, and between level 6b and 7 (Threatened/Shifting) on the EGIDS scale. This language is no longer being naturally transmitted to younger generations, and its use is increasingly limited in daily contexts. This study also identifies several key factors contributing to the language’s decline and proposes several practical strategies for the revitalization and long-term preservation of Kedayan.
