Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the extent of the potential use of origami art in Engineering drawing subject. There are two objectives to be achieved in this study which are to evaluate the students' perception on the importance of origami art in education and also their perception on the application of origami art in engineering drawing learning. This study was conducted at Kolej Vokasional Tanjung Puteri Johor and involved a total of 30 students. A course implementing origami in engineering drawing subject was conducted and the research findings were obtained using survey forms distributed after the completion of the course. The results found that students had a positive perception towards the importance of origami art in education. In addition, for the second objective, students also gave a positive perception towards the application of origami art in engineering drawing learning.

Abstract

Computer-Aided Design (CAD) has become a common tool used by educational institutions in teaching engineering drawing. Although more practical, learning that relies too heavily on CAD can lead to a decrease in students' ability to visualize and interpret technical drawing objects. This study will examine the integration of CAD in technical drawing education with the use of real model objects in the orthographic drawing and its impact on students’s performance. The study employed a three-step data collection approach, including a pre-test, intervention, and post-test, as well as a questionnaire to determine students' perceptions of the learning process. The study participants were fifteen fourth-grade high school students from SMA Seri Aman, Kota Tinggi. The students had previously been taught orthographic drawing and had prior knowledge of the subject matter. Based on the regression testing results, a p-value of 0.00 <0.05 was obtained, indicating a significant relationship between real modeled object learning and students' learning performance. Additionally, based on the average scores, there was an improvement in each phase, with pre-test scores of 4.46 and post-test scores of 8.40, indicating that the use of real modeled objects significantly improved learning outcomes compared to conventional learning models in orthographic drawing materials.

Abstract

In recent years, origami has also made its way into the field of education. Many countries have implemented origami in their educational curricula due to its numerous benefits for student development. Origami has been found to help students in many ways, including the development of cognitive, social, and motor skills. To investigate the effects of origami on student development, a study was conducted using a systematic literature review method. The study focused on articles published between 2018 and March 13, 2023, and utilized keywords such as "origami," "education," "student development," "cognitive skills," "social skills," and "motor skills." Six article selection criteria were established before the selection process, ensuring that only the most relevant and reliable sources were included. For instance, origami was found to be effective in improving students' math and geometry skills. Through the folding of paper, students were able to develop their spatial reasoning, geometric thinking, and problem-solving abilities. Additionally, origami was found to enhance students' fine motor skills, which are essential for various activities, such as writing and drawing. Origami also had a positive impact on students' psychology and emotion, as it provided a calming and relaxing activity that can help students reduce stress and anxiety. Furthermore, origami was found to foster creativity and critical thinking, as it requires students to think creatively and strategically when designing their paper creations.

Abstract

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that presents persistent challenges in communication, emotional regulation, and social interaction. Art therapy has emerged as a promising complementary approach that enables children to externalize emotions, foster creativity, and build social connections. This study is to identify the effectiveness of structured art therapy interventions in enhancing communication, emotional regulation, and social skills among children with ASD. The 10 children aged 4 to 6 years were purposefully selected in structured art therapy sessions for 3 weeks, which were facilitated by five experienced teachers with over 20 years of services (1 teacher: 2 children’s). Data collection employed the behavioral and emotional rating scale‑2 (BERS-2), artwork analysis using the visual emotional and social coding framework (VESCF), and semi‑structured interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlations, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and regression, while qualitative data underwent thematic coding with NVivo, ensuring triangulation. Findings revealed significant improvements across communication, social interaction, and daily living skills, with mean scores more than doubling post‑intervention. Studies should be integrated as a complementary intervention alongside traditional therapies, with larger longitudinal studies needed to validate outcomes and support policy integration into early childhood programs.

Abstract

The importance of mathematical creative thinking skills in the 21st century differs from the creative thinking skills of current elementary school students. A 5th-grade student at a public elementary school in West Bandung Regency, Indonesia, has low levels of creative thinking. This study aimed to analyze fifth-grade students' mathematical creative thinking skills during problem-solving, identify the underlying causes of their low performance, and propose instructional strategies to foster their development. The method used was qualitative, with a descriptive–interpretive design. Participants comprised 15 fifth-grade students from a single public elementary school in West Bandung Regency, Indonesia, selected via convenience sampling. The primary research instrument was the researcher, supported by a creative thinking skills test instrument and an interview guide. The results of this study are 1 student had a high level of creative thinking skills able to achieve indicators of flexibility, originality, awareness, and elaboration; 1 student had a moderate level of creative thinking skills able to achieve indicators of originality, awareness, and elaboration; and 13 students had low levels of creative thinking skills able to achieve indicators of fluency/originality/awareness/originality and awareness/ had not even achieved all indicators of mathematical creative thinking skills. Further analysis revealed fundamental misconceptions, particularly confusion between area and perimeter, fragmented procedural reasoning, and limited metacognitive verification during mathematical problem-solving. To improve students’ creative thinking skills, it is recommended to use learning activities oriented towards problem- and project-based learning, realistic mathematics, and mathematics textbooks that also support the problem-solving process. In conclusion, most fifth-grade students demonstrate low levels of mathematical creative thinking skills, shaped by conceptual misconceptions and limited metacognitive regulation, underscoring the importance of targeted, conceptually grounded, and problem-oriented instructional interventions. Keywords: creative thinking skills, mathematics, problem-solving.

Abstract

Visualization skills are essential in engineering education, yet many Malaysian students struggle to develop them, which affects their performance in Grafik Komunikasi Teknikal, also known as technical drawing. This study evaluated the effectiveness of OrigamiGo, a paper-folding-based teaching module, in improving students’ visualization skills. Unlike computer-based tools, OrigamiGo provides low-cost, tactile, hands-on learning experiences that integrate visual and haptic activities. A quasi-experimental design was conducted with 36 tenth-grade students from two secondary schools in Johor, Malaysia. Students’ visualization skills were measured using a validated test instrument, and data were analyzed using inferential statistics in SPSS. The experimental group showed significantly greater improvement than the control group, with mean N-gain scores of 57.85 and 20.41, respectively. Paired t-tests showed significant pre-to-post test improvements in both groups. The independent t-test revealed a significant difference in post-test scores, with the experimental group scoring higher than the control group (21.32 vs. 17.29). These findings indicate that OrigamiGo is an effective alternative approach for enhancing visualization skills in technical and vocational education. Future studies may examine its application in broader educational contexts and larger samples.
