Abstract

ABSTRACT: Teaching nowadays is fast expanding rapidly and it requires modern technologies to provide more flexible and effective ways of improving teacher education, and connecting teachers to the global community. ICT (Information and Communication Technology) integration into teacher education, therefore, is the key to equipping and producing professional teachers as well as improved pedagogy. However, there is the need to consider the type and nature of teacher trainees before integrating ICT in teacher education programmes, because their perceptions are likely to differ. This study, therefore, focuses on the perceptions of teacher trainees (regular and sandwich students) regarding the integration of ICT in teacher education programme at the UNILAG (University of Lagos) in Akoka, Nigeria. It adopted the descriptive research design. Two hundred and fifty participants were involved. One research question and two hypotheses, based on the specific purposes, were raised and answered in the study. A self-constructed validated and reliable instrument was used to collect data. Results revealed that teacher trainees are favourably disposed to the integration of ICT into teacher education as indicated by the grand mean and standard deviation (M = 3.22; SD = 12.22). Significant differences in the perceptions of teacher-trainees regarding the integration of ICT in teacher education programme based on type of the programme was also discovered (t-cal = -2.315; df = 98; P < .05). Teacher-trainees have to realise that ICT has come to stay in their programme. They need to develop more confidence in their individual ability at becoming computer literate teachers in order to remain relevant in the modern day information age. KEY WORDS: Teacher Education; Information and Communication Technology; Teacher-Trainees; Perceptions; Computer Literate Teachers.  About the Authors: Dr. Olusola Angelina Thomas is an Academic Staff at the Department of Educational Administration UNILAG (University of Lagos) in Akoka, Nigeria; and Dr. Maruff Akinwale Oladejo is currently a Lecturer at the Department of Educational Administration UNILAG in Akoka, Nigeria.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Modernity reduces the overall riskiness of certain areas and modes of life, yet at the same time introduces new risk parameters largely or completely unknown to previous eras. Spread of new communication technologies, and above all the internet as well as communication networks, has dramatically influenced identities of individuals and their cultures. A study of new ICT (Information and Communication Technology), particularly as the internet, is changing the way the world works and will continue to do so into the future. By its unprecedented power to move and process information, it is impacting on global living patterns, culture, and governance; in fact, the internet impacts on every aspect of our society today. The question is whether a country like Brunei Darussalam can endure preserving its values, while the internet keeps exerting a damaging influence that can threaten its identity? Thus, this critical review will focus on the internet as a new form of ICT and look at the social impact of its potential threat to the identity of Brunei Darussalam society.KEY WORD: Information and Communication Technology; Identity and Culture; Brunei Society; Internet; Social Impacts. IKHTISAR: “Teknologi Komunikasi Maklumat, Identiti, dan Masyarakat Brunei: Satu Kajian Literatur Kritikal”. Kemodenan mengurangkan sifat berbahaya keseluruhan kawasan-kawasan tertentu dan mod kehidupan, namun pada masa yang sama memperkenalkan parameter risiko baru sebahagian besarnya atau benar-benar tidak diketahui pada era sebelumnya. Penyebaran teknologi-teknologi komunikasi baru, dan di atas semua itu internet serta rangkaian komunikasinya, telah mempengaruhi secara mendadak identiti individu dan budaya mereka. Kajian teknologi maklumat dan komunikasi baru, terutamanya internet, telah mengubah cara bekerja dan akan terus membuat pelbagai perubahan di masa hadapan. Kuasa yang ada pada internet dalam menghantar dan memproses maklumat, memberi kesan kepada corak hidup global, budaya, dan pentadbiran; bahkan pada setiap aspek kehidupan masyarakat pada hari ini. Persoalannya ialah adakah sesebuah negara seperti Brunei Darussalam boleh bertahan dalam memelihara nilai-nilai murni, sedangkan internet mempunyai pengaruh yang merosakkan dan boleh mengancam identiti sebuah negara? Oleh itu, kajian ini penting dengan memberi fokus kepada internet sebagai salah satu bentuk teknologi maklumat dan komunikasi yang baru, dan juga melihat ancamannya yang berpotensi untuk memberi kesan kepada masalah sosial dan identiti masyarakat Brunei Darussalam.KATA KUNCI: Teknologi Maklumat dan Komunikasi; Identiti dan Budaya; Masyarakat Brunei; Internet; Kesan Sosial.About the Author: Norainna Besar is a Lecturer at the Academy of Brunei Studies UBD (University of Brunei Darussalam), Jalan Tunku Link, BE 1410, Bandar Seri Begawan, Negara Brunei Darussalam.

Abstract

Higher Education Data Base (Pangkalan Data Perguruan Tinggi/PDDIKTI) is used by policy makers at Directorate of Higher Education at the Ministry of Research and Higher Education in order to improve the quality, relevance, affordability and equal access to higher education in which sustainable. In fact, the data still need improvements due to several causes such as invalidity, overlapping, and updating problems.  The management of PDDIKTI does not guarantee the validity of data, therefore universities should carry out regular updates to ensure data displayed on PDDIKTI website (http://forlap.ristekdikti.go.id) is legitimate for users who use the data such as HRD staff of companies in recruitment process.Mulawarman University has connected an Academic Information System (AIS) with PDDIKTI by using web service to process data updates. However, the process itself has a long mechanism and resulted in a slow progress because it must pass through several administrative stages ranging from the department, faculty and university. In the process, validity of the data is still on the department’s responsibility.This research has conducted a Proof of Concept (POC) on the use of web service to process data updates on PDDIKTI through AIS. It is carried out only at department level, consequently, the workflow of updates can become shorter and faster. Based on this result, there are two urgent needs that can be proposed to academic policy makers in campus: improved workflow and an updated standard of procedure in data updates from AIS to PDDIKTI.Higher Education Data Base (Pangkalan Data Perguruan Tinggi/PDDIKTI) is used by policy makers at Directorate of Higher Education at the Ministry of Research and Higher Education in order to improve the quality, relevance, affordability and equal access to higher education in which sustainable.

Abstract

Baseline characteristics of students’ knowledge in the concept of learning technology is required. One is the student's learning style characteristics including attitudes, cognitive and psychomotor or skills. Then, characteristics of learning styles based approach sensory preferences, including visually, auditory, and kinesthetic or learning by doing/movement and touch. In this study, methods of teaching as a learning process consisting of multimedia-based teaching, lectures, demonstrations, problem solving, discussion, exercises (drill), case studies, frequently asked questions, and experiment. Three types of questionnaire consisting of the distribution characteristics of student learning styles, the tendency of students learning methods, and the tendency of lecturers teaching methods have been implemented. In order to determine the grade level of each questionnaire with grade visual (V), auditory (A), kinesthetic (K), auditory-kinesthetic (AK), and visual-auditory (VA) have been exploited. The results showed that the relationship between these three variables has yielded a value of 68.2%. It means that the FIS method could be used in order to assess the performance relationship.

Abstract

Color blindness is a condition where a person cannot distinguish colors that are of similar contrast. This paper reports an attempt to develop a mobile phone application that can run on any Android or Windows smart phone. The developed application/software tool is able to assist color blind people by converting an image with low contrast to an image with high contrast. The objective of the proposed work was to develop a program on the LabVIEW platform to i) acquire the image whose information should be processed, ii) develop an algorithm to display a high-contrast crisp image of the actual dull image, and iii) identify the colors and characters present in the dull image for messaging to the user’s phone. The work was implemented on the LabVIEW platform making use of various image processing tools to identify the color and text from the sign board that otherwise cannot be identified by color blind persons. The implementation was tested with several inputs to validate the performance of the proposed method. It was able to produce accurate results for more than 97.3% of the test inputs.

Abstract

Involvement of digital information in almost of enterprise sectors makes information having value that must be protected from information leakage. In order to obtain proper method for protecting sensitive information, enterprise must perform risk analysis of threat. However, enterprises often get limitation in measuring risk related information security threat. Therefore, this paper has goal to give approach for estimating risk by using information value. Techniques for measuring information value in this paper are text mining and Jaccard method. Text mining is used to recognize information pattern based on three classes namely high business impact, medium business impact and low business impact. Furthermore, information is given weight by Jaccard method. The weight represents risk levelof information leakage in enterprise quantitatively. Result of comparative analysis with existing method show that proposed method results more detailed output in estimating risk of information security threat.

Abstract

Information system integration (ISI) is one of the development concerns for organizations to enhance business competitiveness. However, the implementations still present its failures. Despite the ISI may successful technically; but it still seems to be unsuccessful because of the human and management issues. The issues may relate to the readiness constructs of ISI. This study was aimed to know the status of the readiness and success of ISI and to assess the influential factors of the integration in the sampled institution. About 160 samples were purposely involved by considering their key informant characteristics. The data were analyzed using the partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The findings revealed only the user satisfaction variable that mediated the positive effects of the readiness variables towards variable of the system integration success. Besides, the findings may practically helpful for stakeholders in the sampled institution, but it may also theoretically useful for researchers in regard to the readiness and success issues of ISI.
