Abstract

A sustainable ecosystem of universities needs to show outstanding performance in the areas of employability, institutional social responsibility, and creative and performing arts. Thus, this study determined the influential role of emotional quotient (EQ) and spiritual quotient (SQ) on the lecturers’ excellence service quality (ESQ), which eventually led to effective classroom teaching. The data of 127 respondents were analyzed using the structural equation model with partial least square. The results confirmed that both types of quotients positively influence the lecturers’ teaching progression at the university. EQ and SQ have the encouraging power to motivate the academicians for the best service to the university through a quality learning experience. It can be concise that institutions that practice EQ and SQ values can perform better and blend a harmonious working spirit and tandem with the university’s growth. Support for sustainable development goal (SDG-4) via EQ and SQ is now required in humanizing education to ensure academicians’ competency and well-being, particularly in the aftermath of the Corona Virus Disease-19 disruption. Policymakers in the university should now capitalize the intelligence through professional initiatives. This study could have been better with a bigger sample size, but the investigation had limited access due to the university's policy on privacy.

Abstract

Commercial kitchens are high-risk workplaces where staff routinely face hazards such as slips, burns, lacerations, and chemical exposure. Conventional classroom-based safety training often suffers from low engagement and weak retention, limiting preparedness for dynamic, high-pressure conditions. To address this, the present study developed and evaluated a mobile 360° panoramic training platform to enhance hazard awareness in commercial kitchens. Unlike fully modeled virtual reality (VR) simulations or generic training contexts, the platform delivers authentic kitchen imagery in dual modes—immersive via Google Cardboard and non-immersive via smartphone—balancing realism, accessibility, and cost efficiency. This exploratory quantitative study involved thirty semester-one culinary students (ages 18–23) from Kolej Komuniti Bukit Beruang, Melaka, recruited through a convenience sampling approach. Participants completed pre- and post-training hazard-identification tests and the System Usability Scale (SUS). Usability ratings were consistently high across ease of use, learnability, efficiency, and satisfaction (means 4.27–4.70). Hazard-identification scores increased significantly from 29.33 to 83.67; a paired-samples t-test confirmed the improvement (p < 0.001, d = 3.46). Participant feedback highlighted realism and accessibility as strengths, though reduced interactivity compared to full VR was noted. Findings align with prior VR-based training studies in healthcare and construction, suggesting that panoramic imagery can deliver comparable learning gains at lower cost and deployment effort. Limitations include the small, short-term sample, absence of a control group, and user-reported issues such as headset discomfort and accessibility concerns. Future research should examine longitudinal retention, controlled comparisons with traditional training, and scalability across diverse settings to establish broader real-world impact.
