Abstract

This study examines the application of scoring rubrics as an evaluative instrument in higher education environments. Specifically, it explores the advantages, validity, and reliability associated with their use. Scoring rubrics provide a systematic and unbiased methodology for assessing various academic assignments, assisting educators in delivering constructive feedback and promoting student development. The study delves into the benefits associated with the utilization of rubrics, which encompass improved levels of transparency, uniformity, and fairness in the grading process. Furthermore, it investigates the validity and reliability of rubrics, ensuring the precision and consistency of evaluation outcomes. Moreover, this study explores the utilization of holistic and analytic rubrics within Malaysian universities, providing an analysis of their individual applications and advantages in the evaluation procedure. In the pursuit of improving assessment methods, institutions are increasingly recognizing the significance of including scoring rubrics as a valuable instrument to facilitate high-quality education and foster student achievement.

Abstract

In engineering education, experiential learning is essential as it allowed students to connect theoretical knowledge with real-world applications. This study explored the impact of industrial visits, a form of experiential learning, on engineering students’ comprehension, critical thinking, and overall educational experience. We employed a mixed-methods approach, integrating questionnaire surveys, reflective writing exercises, and qualitative analyses to assess the learning outcomes and pedagogical implications of these site visits. Our findings demonstrated that industrial visits significantly enhanced students’ understanding of engineering concepts by providing real-world context to theoretical knowledge. Through reflective exercises, students integrated their field trip experiences with classroom learning, fostering critical thinking abilities and a deeper comprehension of the subject matter. This study underscored the importance of curriculum integration. To nurture students as adept problem solvers and critical thinkers in both academic and practical engineering fields, fostering dynamic interactions between theoretical instruction and practical experiences was crucial. Our study encouraged further exploration of how experiential learning could enrich the educational journey, equipping students to tackle complex challenges in our ever-evolving environment as engineering education advanced.

Abstract

Learners’ attitudes towards learning English as a global language have been widely discussed, yet little is known about this in Indonesia. This study aims to address this knowledge gap by exploring the responses of Indonesian university students to a survey on their attitudes toward learning English in the context of globalization. A total of 333 students volunteered to participate, representing diverse departments within a faculty at a university in Central Java Province, Indonesia. To collect data, we carefully adapted and designed a questionnaire, which was administered online using Google Forms. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The analysis suggests that college learners and users of English in Indonesia hold a positive attitude towards learning the language. We also provide pedagogical implications.

Abstract

This article delves into the profound implications of plagiarism, extending beyond its role as an academic transgression to challenge the foundational principles of truth, originality, and integrity upon which the academic world is built. Plagiarism's extensive consequences ripple through students, educators, and educational institutions, posing a substantial threat to the integrity of the educational system. The primary aim of this study is to comprehensively address the complexities of plagiarism in higher education, emphasizing the need for effective strategies to safeguard and promote academic integrity. Academic institutions, designed to cultivate knowledge and character development, confront the unsettling presence of plagiarism, necessitating an in-depth exploration of its multifaceted causes and motivations for meaningful mitigation. The study identifies academic pressure, time constraints, lack of knowledge about citation rules, and the digital age as significant contributors to the prevalence of plagiarism. It underscores the far-reaching consequences of this issue and highlights the pivotal role of prevention and detection strategies, notably plagiarism detection software such as Turnitin, Grammarly, and Copyscape, in the ongoing battle to preserve academic honesty and the sanctity of scholarly work.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the feedback of English as a Second Language (ESL) learners on their writing skills, with a focus on exploring ESL students' progress in writing skills based on tenses through open-source software. The software is employed to assess each student's improvement. This research follows a qualitative method, and data were collected through semi-structured interviews and the think-aloud protocol. The results are categorized into four main areas: (a) Feedback provided by students; (b) Students' perception of tenses and writing skills; (c) Students' views on teachers' teaching; and (d) practice through open-source software. The study revealed that ESL students had a positive perception of tenses, and their writing skills were enhanced by the semi-structured interviews conducted by ESL learners. The conclusion of the study highlighted that students themselves could recognize improvements in their syntax errors and sentence formation, with very few exceptions. It is advisable for teachers to incorporate a variety of proper grammatical topics in the future to assist students in improving their writing abilities.
