Abstract

This paper focuses on secondary mathematics lessons that integrated journal writing with the use of the writing-to-learn pedagogical strategy. Investigations were conducted on the influence of journal writing on Year 10 secondary students' mathematical performance. It is an action research study that comprised of two cycles and involved 35 students from two classes in a secondary school in Brunei Darussalam. The analyses of the data were extracted from the students' pre- and post-test scores and their journal entries. The findings revealed that even though the students' journal entry score was high, this does not necessarily imply improvements in their mathematical performance. Furthermore, other factors such as classwork and homework given during and after the lessons may have also contributed to the students' mathematical achievements.

Abstract

Despite implementing innovative instructional techniques, many students struggle to understand science topics. This mixed-method and action research study explored the effectiveness of Islamic integrated science comics in enhancing students' comprehension and performance on the topic of 'reuse and recycle,' a challenging area for most students. The study involved 50 Year 3 Bruneian primary school students and used quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. A Wilcoxon signed-rank test revealed significant improvements in students' post-test scores compared to their pre-test scores, demonstrating the intervention's success. Interviews with students further supported these findings, as they described the comic-based lessons as enjoyable and collaborative. The results suggest that integrating Islamic themes into science comics significantly improves students' understanding and application of scientific knowledge. This approach makes learning more engaging and aligns with students' cultural and religious contexts, thereby providing a more holistic educational experience. The study's findings have important implications for educators seeking to enhance science education in similar contexts.
