Abstract

This article discusses the development procedures of the Tarannum Smart Learning Application (Tarannum-SLA). It is a teaching and learning aid that has been developed for those who are interested in the tarannum subject. The tarannum is a technique to beautify and curve the tone of voice, in a certain tempo and rhythm when reading the Quran. The main aim of Tarannum-SLA is to facilitate the process of learning tarannum. Also, this courseware could create awareness among Muslims on the importance of the Quran. The Tarannum-SLA was developed not only to attract Muslims but also for non-Muslims who are interested to know about Islam, especially in terms of the arts of Quran recitation. Furthermore, in this courseware, we provide three language options, which are Malay, English, and Arabic for the convenience of our diverse prospective users. There are seven styles of tarannum, including Bayyati, Nahwand, Hijaz, Rast, Soba, Jiharkah, and Sika that are included in the Tarannum-SLA. Furthermore, to examine the ability of Tarannum-SLA to tackle the users’ needs, we have conducted the usability analysis based on the diffusion of innovation model. The result indicated that most of the constructs are perceived at a high level by respondents. Thus, this evidenced the high usability of Tarannum-SLA in promoting Quranic education. Although the development of this courseware has reached the implementation stage, it still needs some future improvements, for example, to amend the verses and reciters.

Abstract

Teacher collaboration is an aspect that needs to be given due attention in the educational institutions in order to sustain the improvement of teachers’ learning. This study was conducted to examine the influence of secondary school teacher’s collaboration on their self-efficacy. Research design was based on quantitative approach by cross-sectional survey. Data collection via questionnaires was performed to obtain demographic information of respondents, as well as data on teacher collaboration and self-efficacy. A number of 410 secondary school teachers in the northern part of peninsular Malaysia were involved in the study as survey respondents. The collected data was processed and analyzed using statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) via frequency, mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis. The study found that the level of teacher collaboration and teachers’ self-efficacy among secondary school teachers is high. The findings also discovered that there was positive relationship between teacher collaboration and teachers’ self-efficacy. In addition, the dimension of teacher collaboration was found to have a significant influence on the teachers’ self-efficacy. Thus, the findings clearly indicated the importance of the collaboration practices between teachers in influencing the self-efficacy of teachers.
