Abstract

ABSTRACT: Transfer of culture from one generation to the next generation takes place in every period. This is an educational process in which knowledge was inherited to several groups of society within one particular country. The knowledge then becomes cultural heritage that will be used by the society. Indonesian art education is divided into traditional art education and modern art education. Despite the differences between the two, the transfer of Indonesian culture’s values occurs in both processes. In general, art education is a processing media of cultural heritage in the context of individual development towards a socially and culturally whole human being, since art develops creativity and sensitivity for different, ever-changing aspects of life, such as the culture and the changes within the society. Art education is considered as a process of cultural inheritance and human development – a creative process that functions as an agent of change for culture.KEY WORDS: cultural heritage, educational process, art education, and transfer of Indonesian culture’s values.About the Author: Dr. Nuning Damayanti Adisasmito is a lecturer at the Faculty of Fine Art and Design, Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), Indonesia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: This purpose of study was to identify teachers’ perceptions towards the usage of courseware in the teaching and learning of Economics at Form 4 and Form 5 levels at Penang secondary schools. Other aspects observed were the knowledge and basic skills of the teachers in the use of computer, the methods used in the teaching and learning of Economics and their perceptions towards the use of courseware in the teaching and learning process. In this study, 30 in-service teachers were chosen randomly as research samples, representing the teachers’ population teaching Economics in 96 schools in Penang. This study was carried out using the quantitative approach. Descriptive statistics used include frequency, %age, and min relativity index. The findings showed that teachers teaching Economics at Penang secondary schools are receptive about the usage of courseware in the teaching and learning of Economics. They also believed that the usage could also bring benefits to the students. The results of the overall relativity index show that there is readiness among the teachers in using courseware in the teaching and learning of Economics at the Form 4 and Form 5 levels. A few suggestions for improvements in the teaching and learning process have also been put forth in this paper.KEY WORDS: Teachers’ perceptions, courseware, economics, knowledge and basic skills, computer, and teaching and learning process.  About the Authors: Termit Kaur Ranjit Singh and Abdul Rashid Mohamed are the Lecturers at the School of Educational Studies USM (Science University of Malaysia), Pulau Pinang, Malaysia.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: English had been thought as one of the determining factor of academic excellence in medical school as students with better command of English are thought to have better understanding of the subjects compared to students who have poor command of English. English literacy has also been thought to be correlated with academic performance in medical school. While a lot of researches had been conducted on the relationship of English language proficiency and academic performance among non-native English speakers in other countries. The study on Malaysian medical students regarding this issue is still limited. The study was conducted to look at the correlation of English literacy and academic performance of medical students in USIM (Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia or Islamic Science University of Malaysia). This is a retrospective observational study. The results for “English for Medical Sciences” in Semester 4 was compared to the performance in Pathology course in the Second Professional Examination in Semester 6. A correlation study showed no correlation between the English literacy and the academic performance of the medical students with r = -0.027. Therefore, there is no significant correlation between the English literacy and the academic performance of the medical students in USIM. KEY WORDS: English literacy, academic performance, medical student of USIM, and English language proficiency.  About the Authors: Dr. Suhaila Sanip is a Lecturer (Medical Education) at the Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences USIM (Islamic Science University of Malaysia) and now as Deputy Dean (Student Development & Performance Management) at the Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences USIM, 13th Floor, Menara B, Persiaran MPAJ, Jalan Pandan Utama, Pandan Indah, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and Dr. Noor Fadzilah Zulkifli is Senior Lecturer (Pathology), Multidisciplinary Laboratory Coordinator, and Pathology Course Coordinator at the Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences USIM.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Poverty has become one of the major reasons for lack of motivation for participating in learning processes, especially among the adults. Poverty has victimized many individuals to leave their education and opt for employment to sustain themselves and their family. Lifelong learning as a process of learning can be of some relevance as a tool of motivation and participation in the learning among the individuals, where the individuals can be active in the labor market (enhancing motivation) and also participate in the learning process. The paper investigates the impact of poverty on lack of motivation to participate in education. The paper analyses the research problem by discussing the case of India, where two adult learners where interviewed. According to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Model and Cross – Chain of Response Model provide as the theoretical perspective for the study to examine the issue of lack of motivation and participation among adult learners. The paper concludes by emphasizing on the fact that poverty does influence the adult leaner’s in India in terms of motivating them to participate in their education. This is able to be also argued that learning process involves need for motivation and participation unlike the traditional process of intellectual development. Emotion (motivation) and sociality (participation) are very important elements for enhancing cognitive abilities (formal qualification) of an individual.KEY WORDS: motivation, participation, poverty, learning, barriers for learning, and case of India. About the Author: Chetan B.

Abstract

ABSTRACT: One of the structured experiences of high school students is taking test. This experience is usually prepared as a regular academic activity in school. It aims to measure students’ achievement, which can be gleaned from their test score. How the students provide their impressions or predictive response before they see actual test material and after taking the test are implicit valuations. Thus, implicit valuations are the predictions that answer the question, “what will be their actual test score in mind?”. The study investigates the confidence judgment and test scores of graduating high school students by determining their differences, which are the bases for developing a program to enhance student confidence in test-taking. Its participants consist of five hundred seventy five (575) graduating students from San Pablo City National High School in the Province of Laguna, Philippines. The researchers used two instruments, which are the test prediction forms and teacher-made test. The findings showed that (1) there is a significant difference between the students’ pre-test prediction and post-test prediction; (2) there is a significant difference between the students’ pre-test prediction and actual test score; and (3) there is a significant difference between the students’ post-test prediction and actual test score. It is concluded that students’ are generally overconfident. Furthermore, it is recommended that there is a need to identify factors that affect students’ overconfidence. A module was proposed based on the findings of research.  KEY WORDS: Confidence Judgment; Test Scores; Test Prediction Forms; Teacher-Made Test; Confidence Enhancement.    About the Authors: Tristan M.
