Published: January 2025

Agriculture plays a critical role in food production, but farmers face numerous challenges, particularly due to unpredictable weather, such as heavy rainfall. Excessive rain can cause significant damage to crops, leading to issues like waterlogging, soil erosion, plant damage, and a higher risk of diseases. These weather-related problems can substantially decrease both crop yields and quality. Traditional methods of protecting crops, such as manually covering them or moving them to shelters, are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and often ineffective. To address these challenges, this paper proposes the design and implementation of an IoT-based Automated Shelter System, which aims to protect crops from the harmful effects of rain by using smart technology to respond automatically to weather changes. The system utilizes Internet of Things (IoT) technology, connecting sensors, motors, and devices to monitor and control environmental conditions in real time. Weather sensors like rain gauges, temperature sensors, and humidity sensors detect the onset of rain. Based on the data collected, the system automatically activates a protective shelter, such as a retractable roof or canopy, to shield the crops from the rain. This automation minimizes the need for manual labor and ensures timely protection for the crops. The IoT-driven system provides multiple benefits, including real-time protection against rainrelated damage, such as preventing waterlogging, soil erosion, and crop harm due to excessive moisture. By automatically deploying shelters when needed, the system ensures optimal growing conditions for crops, leading to healthier plants and better yields. Additionally, the system reduces labor costs through its autonomous operation.

Published: January 2025

The reliability of the functioning of engineering and transportation networks largely depends on the technical condition of their structural facilities. For example, in many design solutions for pumping stations in water supply, sewage, and heating networks, significant attention is paid to the compact use of the internal space of technological rooms. This is due to the need to accommodate large-sized technological equipment in these rooms, as well as to install a complex pipeline system in accordance with the operational scheme of the pumping station. Therefore, the use of columns in such spaces aligns well with the requirements for the reliable operation of engineering networks because it: ensures the technological requirements for the operation of the pumping station; facilitates the relocation, repair, and replacement of large-scale technological equipment and the installation of complex pipeline systems during modernization, reconstruction, or restoration after damage, while considering changes to the system's operational scheme. In this regard, the mechanical properties of concrete made with ordinary Portland cement, microsilica, and the SP-1 superplasticizer have been studied for its potential use as a high-strength material in reinforcing the load-bearing concrete structures, specifically the columns of engineering structures within engineering and transportation networks. These include pumping stations in water supply, sewage, and heating networks; district heating plants; bridges; and pedestrian overpasses. The concrete mix was developed to construct reinforced concrete jackets for strengthening damaged column structures. This technology has significant advantages for constructing column structures in terms of their resilience during shelling, particularly in terms of execution speed, strength, reliability, and protection from various external impacts during such events. When performing research, first, mixing water, SP-1 additive, Portland cement and microsilica (from 0 to 10 %) were sequentially introduced, later they were combined with a dosed amount of quartz sand and granite crushed stone in an ordinary concrete mixer. The compressive strength of concrete was determined according to DSTU B V.2.7-214:2009. Experimental data showed that by varying the selected factors, it is possible to increase the strength of concrete in the initial period when it is doubled in compression.

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the validity and reliability of the test instruments for selected physical fitness components (agility, power, and speed) among youth rugby players in Selangor, Malaysia. Even though previous researchers have conducted the validity and reliability for the fitness test, investigating the reliability and validity is ongoing and needs to be established according to specific populations to ensure valid, reliable interpretation or precise measurement. Sixty youth rugby players aged 13 and 14 years old underwent measurements of agility (4x10 meters run), power (standing long jump), speed (30 meters sprint test). In addition, two testers independently assessed all the tests towards subjects using standardized skill criteria. The descriptive statistics of the variables were; i) 4x10 meters test for elite players (M = 11.9, SD = .81) and non-elite players (M = 12.9, SD = .83), ii) 30 meters sprint test for elite players (M = 5.56, SD = .31) and non-elite players (M = 5.90, SD = .33), iii) standing long jump for elite players (M = 211.8, SD = 8.20) and non-elite players (M = 206.53, SD = 6.89). Significant (p < 0.05) differences were detected for all the 3 tests. The study found that the test-retest and Pearson correlation of reliability for the 3 test instruments were high (r = .80) for 4x10 meters test, 30 meters sprint test (r = .82), and standing long jump (r = .72). These findings suggested that all the 3 test instruments are reliable and valid for the studied population. This study will provide comprehensive evidence for all practitioners in terms of appropriate and quality measurement to ensure the training program and talent selection are meaningful. These findings also provide direction for future researchers to explore the different research methods, populations, and other fitness components.

This research was conducted to obtain the validity and reliability of the questionnaire instrument relationship between behavior and environment on body fat percentage among 10 and 11 year old female students. This research involved 132 female students in Hulu Langat district, Selangor. 48 questionnaire items that represented six constructs that are sedentary behaviour, nutritional behaviour, media environment, family environment and school environment. Factor analysis showed only 45 items that represented those six constructs can be accepted. Meanwhile, Alpha Cronbach value showed reliability coefficient value for both behaviour and environment is α = .68. Due to that, findings of this study showed this questionnaire is valid and reliable to be used among primary school’ female students.

Female Athlete Triad (FAT) has always been a concern to competitive female athletes as it affects female athletes in terms of their sport performance and importantly, their overall health. In Malaysia, there is a limited of studies regarding FAT. This cross-sectional study was aim to assess the risk of developing FAT in female university athletes and its relationship with their sport nutritional knowledge and calorie intake. In total of 44 female athletes from public universities in Malaysia completed self-reported questionnaires and diet recall. Almost half of the female athletes (40.9%) were at risk of developing FAT. There was no difference in sport nutritional knowledge between female athletes who are at risk and not at risk of FAT. However, it was observed that those who were at risk consumed significantly lower daily calorie intake than those who were not at risk (p<0.05). Participants who were at risk also sustained significantly higher time-loss injury during the last year (p<0.001). In summary, the results showed that most of the female university athlete were at risk of developing FAT and appropriate intervention is needed in order to reduce the risk of FAT as it will lead to sports injury and impact their sports performance.

The study's objectives were to investigate the effects of a 12-week sedentary lifestyle on heart rate variability (HRV) and the effectiveness of archery as an intervention in a sedentary young population. 34 young people were divided into the sedentary group (SG) and the archery group at random (IG). While IG underwent a 12-week archery intervention with three sessions per week, SG was counselled to maintain their current way of life. At baseline, week eight, and week twelve of the intervention, two baroreflex tests—the Valsalva Manoeuvre Test (VMT) and the Orthostatic Tolerance Test—were used to assess HRV characteristics (OTT). The HRV parameters were determined using an Actiheart device. The SDNN and LF/HF ratio for Valsalva Manoeuvre Test (VMT) and Orthostatic Tolerance Test (OTT) showed gradual improvement from baseline, Week 8 and Week 12. SDNN parameters improve between +3% and +6.3% meanwhile SG showed a reduction at -0.5% and -3.5%. LF, HF, and LF/HF ratio readings also indicate improvement in IG participants. The blood pressure was calculated using PMBPI showed that IG constantly maintained the reading compared to SG which showed some fluctuation after 12 weeks. To conclude, the improvement of HRV parameter following 12 weeks of intervention suggest that archery training benefits in controlling autonomic nervous system changes due to prolong engagement in sedentary behaviors.

Historically, Arabic writing was used to spread Islam in Malaysia. Nowadays, Arabic writing has become a part of Malaysia’s national curriculum under Islamic studies subject. Previous studies have shown that many students in school are still having difficulties to master Arabic learning, especially in writing. These scenarios were claimed to be caused by poor teaching skills and also the lack of proper assessment to assess and evaluate Arabic handwriting performance. Hence, there is an urge to find a trustworthy instrument to assess Arabic handwriting, especially among children in early childhood education. Therefore, this study aimed to test the face validity of a newly developed questionnaire for Arabic writing assessment. Face validity assessment was chosen to get the first layer of experts’ review and evaluation on the items constructed in the assessment instrument. A questionnaire using 5-point Likert scale was distributed to 28 experts in Arabic handwriting at different levels of education. The results show that most of the items in the questionnaire are valid to be used to assess children as all experts agreed on the items developed. This is the first pilot study that ensures the basic structure in developing appropriate items in the instrument is good. The results could be used as a verification to support the validation of using this new instrument to assess students’ Arabic handwriting performance.

Purpose of the study: This study aims to investigate the comparative effects of generative learning strategy (GLS) and 5E strategy (5E-IS) on the academic achievement of pre-service teachers in integrated science. This study addressed two research questions and test one hypothesis at .05 level of significance.
Methodology: The research employed a non-equivalent pre- and post-tests design followed by semi-structured interviews. A sample of 157 pre-service teachers were selected from two intact programmes of study. The main data collection instruments were pre- and post-tests, and interview schedule. Data was analysed using mean scores, adjusted means, percentages and with Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). Interview results were analysed using narratives.
Main Findings: There was relative improvement in pre-service teachers’ performance taught with GLS and 5E-IS. Moreover, pre-service teachers instructed using generative learning strategies demonstrated superior performance compared to those in 5E strategy group (effect size = 0.32, p = 0.000, < 0.05). The interview data reveals that both generative and 5E strategies were perceived as beneficial and adaptable approaches that enhance understanding, retention, knowledge transfer across various contexts, and ultimately motivating learners throughout the learning process.
Novelty/Originality of this study: The effectiveness of GLS and 5E-IS hold significant implications for curriculum design, instructional practices, and teacher preparation programmes. Understanding pedagogical approach which yields superior learning outcomes, enhances retention of scientific concepts, and teacher efficacy is key. Insights from this study may contribute to the on-going discourse surrounding best practices in science education, fostering continuous improvement and innovation in instructional methodologies.
