Amalan Kepimpinan Teknologi Guru Besar dan Hubungannya dengan Komitmen Guru Program Transformasi Sekolah 2025
Authors: Mohd Yusoff Jailani , Mohd Hamzah Mohd Izham
Published: March 2023

Teknologi merupakan antara elemen terpenting dalam Pembelajaran Abad Ke-21 (PAK21) bahkan dalam bidang pengurusan dan pentadbiran pendidikan. Walau bagaimanapun di Malaysia, kemahiran teknologi guru masih berada pada tahap yang rendah. Guru-guru masih tidak yakin untuk mengintegrasikan TMK dalam PdPc. Oleh itu, pendekatan kepimpinan teknologi mampu mengatasi isu ini. Di samping itu, komitmen guru menyumbang kepada kemajuan sekolah dan pencapaian murid. Guru yang benar-benar komited sering bermotivasi untuk menghasilkan kerja yang terbaik untuk sekolah. Maka kajian ini dilaksanakan untuk menentukan tahap amalan kepimpinan teknologi dalam kalangan guru besar dan kaitannya dengan komitmen guru sekolah rendah Program TS25 di Putrajaya. Reka bentuk tinjauan dipilih dan melibatkan 310 sampel guru-guru sekolah rendah Program TS25 di Putrajaya berdasarkan kaedah pensampelan rawak mudah serta borang soal selidik digunakan sebagai instrumen kajian. Hasil analisis menunjukkan kepimpinan teknologi mencapai tahap sederhana tinggi dan komitmen guru berada tahap yang sederhana. Terdapat juga hubungan yang kuat antara kepimpinan teknologi dan komitmen guru. Ini bermakna semakin tinggi kepimpinan teknologi diamalkan maka semakin tinggi komitmen guru-guru di sekolah. Kajian ini memberikan implikasi kepada model kepimpinan teknologi NETS-A (2002) yang merupakan sebuah model kepimpinan teknologi yang komprehensif dan menyeluruh. Hasil kajian ini juga boleh dijadikan panduan kepada pembuat dasar di KPM untuk menambah baik latihan sedia ada dengan menerapkan elemen kepimpinan teknologi.

Published: March 2023

Student dropout continues to be a significant challenge in higher education. Studies have shown that it has economic impacts on institutions. However, the cost associated with student dropout needs to be better understood. This research focuses on first-year dropouts in 51 Chilean universities, intending to analyze the costs generated by student dropouts in all their careers, allowing to project in an average horizon the resources that would no longer be received as a result of dropouts. It is descriptive research with a documentary analysis technique. Among the most outstanding results, it is shown that the institutions would lose around USD 1,169,853,410 and that private universities are the ones that register a higher cost associated with first-year university dropouts. On the other hand, it is statistically proven that for those universities that register a higher number of enrollments, the cost associated with dropout will be higher.

Authors: Suprayogi Rizqi
Published: March 2023

Peneliti ini menjelaskan lebih detail tentang ide reformasi Hukum perkawinan Islam di Indonesia. Perkawinan pada umumnya didasarkan pada ikatan keluarga. Ikatan keluarga ini dapat didasarkan pada kekerabatan atau perkawinan itu sendiri. Hubungan ikatan keluarga begitu penting karena berdampak hukum ada hubungannya dengan anak atau orang tua, hak waris, hak asuh, atau wali. Tujuan reformasi hukum perkawinan Islam yang dilaksanakan di Indonesia adalah modern di bidang hukum perkawinan. Pada dasarnya sumber hukum perkawinan dapat menggunakan metode istinbath. Metode penemuan hukum dapat melalui bayani, ta’lili dan isthislahi. Namun masyarakat memahami hukum perkawinan melaui dua sumber tidak tertulis dan juga tertulis. Dalam sumber hukum perkawinan tertulis adalah sumber hukum yang bersumber dari berbagai undang-undang, dan perjanjian. Sumber hukum yang tidak tertulis adalah sumber hukum yang tumbuh dan berkembang dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat.
Menelaah Kenaikan tarif PPN 11% di Indonesia
Authors: Siahaan Albert
Published: March 2023

Latar belakang: Saat ini memberlakukan Pajak Pertambahan Nilai (PPN) sebesar 11% yang dari sebelumnya sebesar 10% dan telah berlaku sejak 1 April 2022 dikarenakan sesuai dengan diatur oleh Undang-Undang Harmonisasi Peraturan Perpajakan beserta usulan menteri keuangan Indonesia  Ibu Sri Mulyani demi memperbaiki anggaran APBN yang mengalami defisit dikarenakan pandemi COVID-19 di Indonesia.

Metode penelitian: Metode Penelitian pada artikel ini menggunakan metode internet searching yaitu cara proses pencarian data melalui media internet demi memperoleh informasi berdasarkan referensi, jurnal, artikel ataupun perundangan secara online yang berkaitan dengan objek penelitian

Hasil penelitian: Bahwa kenaikan PPN menjadi 11% mulai berlaku sejak tanggal 1 April 2022 sesuai dengan Undang-Undang Harmonisasi Perpajakan dan arahan Menteri Keuangan Indonesia Sri Mulyani demi memperbaiki defisit APBN yang membengkak akibiat dari Pandemi COVID-19 tersebut. Dan juga Kenaikan Pajak Pertambahan Nilai pun akan secara bertahap dimana diatur dalam UU HPP akan menjadi 12% paling lambat 1 Januari 2025.

Kesimpulan: Bahwa kenaikan PPN sendiri akan berdampak positif bagi pemerintah bagi penambahan kas negara tetapi kenaikan PPN ditengah pandemi tersebut membawa dampak negatif terutama bagi masyarakat kebawah atau kurang mampu sehingga mengakibatkan masyarakat kurang mampu tersebut memiliki daya beli rendah tetapi pemerintah memastikan tidak akan menerapkan PPN kepada sembako kecuali sembako tersebut memiliki kelas premium.
Impacts of PM2.5 on Stock’s Earnings in China
Authors: Huang Weige
Published: March 2023

The particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) is a serious air-pollutant emission which has caused serious risks to public health in China. The concerns could impact the decisions of people when they are choosing which companies to work and the decisions further affect the earnings of the companies. This is because people especially the ones with high skills have more choices and would like to choose to work in a company which is located in a city with less PM2.5 concentration and the companies with more high-skill people tend to perform better. That is, the earnings should be higher. This paper studies the impacts of PM2.5 concentration on earnings per share (EPS) of stocks in China market. We find that PM2.5 has positive impacts on EPS in the entire market and the impacts are larger for stocks headquartered in the northwest of China. Also, we find that there exist heterogeneous effects of PM2.5 on EPS. That is, the impacts of PM2.5 tend to increase with EPS.

Authors: Satyanarayana Chinthanippula , Bimalendu Chowdhury
Published: March 2023

This study evaluated possible interaction between Ayurvedic anti-urolithiac agent hydroalcoholic extract of Didymocarpus pedicellata (HADP) leaves and gliclazide. Dose optimization performed by measuring serum glucose levels after 200 and 400 mg/kg HADP administration to normal rats. Pharmacokinetic interaction study in normal rats performed by administration of gliclazide alone and combination with HADP (400 mg/kg). Diabetes was induced by administration of streptozotocin (55 mg/kg) and animals were treated with gliclazide, HADP and combination for 28 days. Pharmacokinetic and dynamic interaction were assessed after single (day 1) and repeated dose (day 28) co-administration by determination of serum gliclazide and glucose levels respectively. Gliclazide showed biphasic concentration time data and glucose reduction with maximum reduction at 2 and 8h post administration. HADP showed dose proportionate hypoglycemic effect in normal rats, hence 400 mg/kg was used for further studies. There was significantly higher decrease in percentage reduction of glucose levels in co-administration group as compared to gliclazide only group in normal, diabetic rats after single and repeated administration. Reduction was higher in repeated administration as compared to single. There was a non-significant increase in pharmacokinetic parameters in normal and diabetic rats after single HADP administration. Repeated HADP administration in diabetic rats caused significant increase in all pharmacokinetic parameters of gliclazide. On day 28 biochemical parameters are estimated to evaluate effect on oral administration of HADP with gliclazide for 28 days to diabetic animals. The results are shown a significant improvement in dyslipidemia, triglyceride levels and liver functional parameters such as SGOT, SGPT, ALP, and total protein in HADP combination as compared to the vehicle control group. Combination of gliclazide and HADP showed a significant pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic interaction with gliclazide. Hence precautions has to be observed in co-administration of gliclazide with HADP and dosage adjustments of gliclazide might be required in a clinical setting to avoid sever hypoglycemia.

Published: March 2023

The development of aquaculture in An Giang province posed a risk of lowering the surface water quality of the Mekong River. This study assessed the pollution level of surface water affected by aquaculture areas in the province and the efficiency of the floating raft of native aquatic plants on aquaculture wastewater quality improvement. Water samples were analyzed for SS, COD, BOD5, N-NH4+, Total N, and Total P. The Water Quality Index was calculated according to the Vietnamese technical guidelines (VN_WQI). The quadrat method was applied to determine the density of aquatic plants. The result showed that surface water quality affected by aquaculture areas in An Giang province did not meet national standards, and the WQI ranged from heavy to good pollution. Experimental results showed that when using the treatment tank, including floating rafts of Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), Morning glory plants (Ipomoea aquatica), and Climbing dayflower (Commelina diffusa), the removal percentages of SS, COD, BOD5, N-NH4+, Total N, and Total P were 92.6%, 89.6%, 93.9%, 93.4%, 64.3%, and 94.6%, respectively, in the first three months of the farming season. The removal percentages of SS, COD, BOD5, N-NH4+, Total N, and Total P were 92.7%, 89.9%, 91.5%, 93.6%, 67.8%, and 94%, respectively, in the fourth month until fish harvest in the treatment tank. Therefore, floating rafts of native aquatic plants could absorb nutrients and quickly remove pollutants. The quality of aquaculture wastewater after treatment was significantly improved.

Published: March 2023

Excessive feature dimensions impact the effectiveness of machine learning, computationally expensive and the analysis of feature correlations in the engineering area. This paper uses the colour descriptor to get the most optimal feature to improve time consumption and efficiency. This study investigated Ficus carica L. (figs) with three classification stages. The ripening classification of fig was examined using colour features descriptor with two different colour models, RGB and HSV. In addition, the machine learning classification model based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN) that utilised the Feed-Forward Neural Network (FFNN) model to classify the ripeness of fig is considered in this characterisation. Five different numbers of binning were characterised for RGB and HSV. Both colour feature descriptors were compared in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, precision, and time consumption to identify the dimension of the optimal feature. Based on the result, reducing the size of images will improve the time consumption with comparable accuracy. Moreover, the reduction of features dimension cannot be too small or too big due to inequitable enough to differentiate the ripeness stages and lead to a false error state. The optimal features dimension in binning for RGB was 8 (R/G/B) bins with 96.7% accuracy. Meanwhile, 96.7% accuracy for HSV at 15, 5, and 5 (H, S, V) bins as optimal colour features.

Linguistic construction of gendered lives in Alice Munro’s “Boys and Girls”
Authors: Sarac Durgun Hatice Sezgi , Uzun Kıvılcım , Arikan Arda
Published: March 2023

In Alice Munro’s short story “Boys and Girls,” society’s involvement in creating gendered lives is narrated by an eleven-year-old girl. To provide a linguistic analysis of her psychosexual development shaped by her family, in this study, all utterances are analyzed by employing a theoretical framework composed of Austin’s (1962) Speech Act Theory and Lipsitz Bem’s (1981) Gender Schema Theory. Analysis of the utterances postulates that the family’s stereotypical and value-ridden statements affect the child’s understanding of the making of a woman as the narrator’s psychosexual development occurs under the influence of sex-typed individuals who mainly use implicit performatives primarily marked as verdictive utterances. Hence, the narrator’s immediate social environment exerts their authority and power through specific linguistic constructions, as exemplified in the forceful use of the verdictives.

Cuantificación y seguimiento de la inflación normativa: enseñanzas a extraer de la experiencia francesa
Authors: Sánchez Pavón Bernardo
Published: March 2023

La doctrina ha señalado como una de las patologías de nuestro sistema normativo escrito la incesante proliferación de normas que se suceden, casi sin solución de continuidad, a un ritmo frenético, fenómeno que se ha llegado a calificar como de explosión, marea, avalancha, inflación e hipertrofia de la legislación. Este escenario proyecta incertidumbre sobre los aplicadores del derecho e inseguridad jurídica sobre los ciudadanos, a las que prometen contribuir los requerimientos de nuevas normas para afrontar las recientes crisis económicas, sanitarias, energéticas y medioambientales.
El presente trabajo aborda la problemática de la evaluación de la inflación normativa, tomando como referente la labor desarrollada a este respecto en Francia y procurando extraer de ella conclusiones que contribuyan a estudiar un eventual sobredimensionamiento de nuestro ordenamiento jurídico y, en su caso, a concretar soluciones para su corrección. Para ello, se procede a definir el concepto de inflación normativa, se examina la problemática que plantea su cuantificación, se exponen las iniciativas adoptadas en Francia, ahondando en los trabajos del Conseil d’État, y se exponen algunas de las soluciones alumbradas en España, efectuando, en sede conclusiva, varias propuestas de mejora.

Development of an International System of Units (SI)-traceable transmission curve reference material to improve the quantitation and comparability of proton-transfer-reaction mass-spectrometry measurements
Authors: Worton David R. , Moreno Sergi , O'Daly Kieran , Holzinger Rupert
Published: March 2023

Abstract. Since its inception more than 2 decades ago, proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) has established itself as a powerful technique for the measurements of a wide range of volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) with high time resolution and low detection limits
and without the need for any sample pre-treatment. As this technology has
matured and its application become more widespread, there is a growing need for accurate and traceable calibration to ensure measurement comparability.
As a result of the large number of VOCs detectable with PTR-MS, it is impractical to have a calibration standard or standards that cover all
observable compounds. However, recent work has demonstrated that
quantitative measurements of uncalibrated compounds are possible provided
that the transmission curve is accurately constrained. To enable this, a
novel traceable multi-component gas reference material containing 20
compounds spanning a mass range of 32 to 671 has been developed. The
development and compositional evolution of this reference material are described along with an evaluation of its accuracy and stability. This work
demonstrates that for the majority of components the accuracy is < 5 % (most < 3 %; < 10 % for
hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane (D3-siloxane) and 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene – 1,2,4-TCB) with stabilities of > 2 years (> 1 year for acetonitrile, methanol and perfluorotributylamine – PFTBA).
Experiments of the efficacy of tree ring blue intensity as a climate proxy in central and western China
Authors: Zheng Yonghong , Shen Huanfeng , Abernethy Rory , Wilson Rob
Published: March 2023

Abstract. To investigate the potential value of blue intensity as a robust climate proxy in central and western China, 4 species from 5 sites were assessed. As well as latewood inverted BI (LWBinv), we also examined earlywood BI (EWB). To explore the sensitivity of using different extraction parameter settings using CooRecorder, seven percentile variant settings for EWB and LWBinv were used; F50:50 to F95:05. The RW, EWB, and LWBinv were detrended using an age-dependent spline. Correlation analysis was applied between the tree ring parameter chronologies and monthly/seasonal variables of mean temperature, precipitation, and scPDSI. Linear regression was also used to further highlight the potential of developing climate reconstructions using these species. Only subtle differences were found between the different percentile extraction variants. However, the analysis suggested that F80:20 or F85:15 variants marginally provided better performance. As has been shown for many other northern hemisphere studies, inverse latewood intensity expresses a strong positive relationship with growing season temperatures (the two southern sites explaining almost 60 % of the temperature variance when combined). However, the low latitude of these sites shows exciting potential for regions south of 30° N that are traditionally not targeted for temperature reconstructions. EWB also shows good potential to reconstruct hydroclimate parameters in some humid areas.

Published: March 2023

Abstract. As the theoretical upper bound of evapotranspiration (ET) or water use by ecosystems, potential ET (PET) has always been widely used as a variable linking a variety of disciplines, such as climatology, ecology, hydrology, and agronomy. However, substantial uncertainties exist in the current PET methods (e.g., empiric models and single-layer models) and datasets, because of unrealistic configurations of land surface and unreasonable parameterizations. Therefore, this study comprehensively considered interspecific differences in various vegetation-related parameters (e.g., plant stomatal resistance and CO2 effects on stomatal resistance) to calibrate and parametrize the Shuttleworth-Wallace (SW) model for forests, shrubland, grassland and cropland. We derived the parameters using identified daily ET observations with no water stress (i.e., PET) at 96 eddy covariance (EC) sites across the globe. Model validations suggest that the calibrated model could be transferable from known observations to any location. Based on four popular meteorological datasets, relatively realistic canopy height and time-varying land use/land cover and Leaf Area Index, we generated a global 5 km ensemble mean monthly PET dataset that includes two components of potential transpiration (PT) and soil evaporation (PE) for the 1982–2015 time period. Using this new dataset, the climatological characteristics of PET partitioning and the spatio-temporal changes in PET, PE and PT were investigated. The global mean annual PET was 1200 mm with PT/PET of 40 % and PE/PET of 60 %, and moreover controlled by PT and PE over 43 % and 57 % of the globe, respectively. Globally, the annual PET and PT significantly (p<0.05) increases by 1.25 mm/yr and 1.22 mm/yr over the last 34 years, followed by a slight increase in the annual PE. Overall, the annual PET changes over 53 % of the globe could be attributed to PT, and the rest to PE. The new PET dataset may be used by academic communities and various agencies to conduct climatological analyses, hydrological modelling, drought studies, agricultural water management, and biodiversity conservation. The dataset is available at https://doi.org/10.11888/Terre.tpdc.300193 (Sun et al., 2023).

Studies focused on specific scientific communities framed science communication as an activity with the specificities of each context and field. In this study, we analysed geoscientists' representations and attitudes about communication to understand which factors can have significant impact on the prediction of
public engagement and that can explain the frequency/intensity of communication. The results pointed out that factors such as professional experience, recognition by the institution, lack of financial support, personal satisfaction and geoscientific area of expertise, have a significant effect on their public engagement.

Abstract. In temperate climates, agricultural ditches are generally bounded by seasonal vegetation, which affects the hydrodynamics and mixing processes within the channel and acts as a buffer strip to reduce a load of pollutants coming from the surrounding cultivated fields. However, even if the control of such vegetation represents a key strategy to support sediment and nutrient management, the studies that investigated the effect of different vegetation maintenance scenarios or vegetation coverage on the flow and mixing dynamics at the reach scale are very limited. To overcome these limitations and provide additional insights into the involved processes, tracer tests were conducted in an agricultural ditch roughly 500 m long close to Warsaw in Poland, focusing on two different vegetation scenarios: highly vegetated and fully cut. Under the highly vegetated scenario, sub-reaches differing in surficial vegetation coverage are analysed separately to better understand the influence of the vegetation conditions on the flow and mixing parameters. Special attention has been paid to the longitudinal dispersion coefficient in complex natural conditions and its dependency on vegetation coverage (V). The vegetation maintenance decreased the travel and residence times of the solute by 3–5 times, moderately increasing the peak concentrations. We found that the dispersion coefficient decreased approximately linearly with the increase of vegetation coverage at V>68 %. Further research is needed at lower vegetation coverage values and different spatial plant distributions. The obtained longitudinal dispersion coefficient values complement dispersion value datasets previously published in the literature, which are barely available for small natural streams. The new process understanding supports the design of future investigations with more environmentally sound vegetation maintenance scenarios.

Abstract. Snow is a complex porous material presenting various microstructural patterns. This microstructure controls the mechanical properties of snow, and this control still needs to be better understood. Recent numerical developments based on three-dimensional tomographic data have provided new insights into snow mechanical behaviour. In particular, the discrete element method combined with the snow microstructure captured by tomography and the mechanical properties of ice has been used to reproduce the brittle properties of snow. However, these developments lack experimental evaluation so far. In this study, we evaluate a numerical model based on the discrete element method with cone penetration tests on centimetric samples. This test is commonly used to characterise the snowpack stratigraphy but also brings into play complex mechanical processes and deformation patterns. We measured the snow microstructure on different samples before and after a cone penetration test with X-ray tomography. The cone test was conducted with the Snow MicroPenetrometer (5 mm cone diameter), which recorded the force profile at high resolution. The initial microstructure and the ice properties fed the model, which can reproduce the exact same test numerically. We evaluated the model on the measured force profile and the displacement field derived from the difference between the initial and final microstructures. The model reasonably reproduced the force profiles in terms of average force, force standard deviation, and the correlation length of the force fluctuations. When the contact law describing ice mechanics is adjusted in the range of reasonable values for ice, the agreement becomes good on all three parameters. The model also well reproduced the measured deformation around the cone tip, which is less sensitive to the contact law parameterization. Overall, the model is capable of distinguishing the different microstructural patterns tested. Therefore this confrontation of numerical results with experimental measurements for this configuration gives confidence in the reliability of the numerical modelling strategy. The model could be further applied with different boundary conditions and used to characterise the mechanical behaviour of the snow better.
Exploring limiting factors of wear in pitch bearings of wind turbines with real-scale tests
Authors: Behnke Karsten , Schleich Florian
Published: March 2023

Abstract. Oscillating movements under load can cause wear in rolling
bearings. Blade bearings of wind turbines are subject to both. To know how
to avoid wear in these bearings is important since they ensure the
operational safety of the turbine. Oscillations of blade bearings vary in
load, speed, and amplitude. The objective of this work is to find limits of
these operating parameters with regards to wear occurrence. To this end
several tests with real-size bearings were carried out. The test parameters
are based on typical operating conditions of a reference turbine. The size
of the bearings and the test parameters differ from other published tests for
oscillating bearings, where often scaled bearings are used results. The test results show that wear occurs for every tested combination of load,
speed, and amplitude of a steady oscillating movement. Even if the wear
characteristics differ between tests, each of them resulted in wear. Hence,
no wear limits can be defined with the tested grease and within typical
operating conditions of a wind turbine below which wear does not occur. Tests with a discontinuity in the steady oscillation movement, however, did
not result in wear. Such discontinuities can be longer movements embedded in
steady oscillations. They are characteristic to wind turbine operation,
where longer movements are a reaction to wind gusts.
What was Killing Babies in Trondheim? An Investigation of Infant Mortality Using Individual Level Causes of Death, 1830–1907
Authors: Sommerseth Hilde Leikny
Published: March 2023

This paper examines infant mortality amongst newborns in Trondheim city, 1830–1907, working specifically with individual level cause of death data. Findings show that infant mortality in the city started to drop from 1895, primarily as a result of a decline in post-neonatal mortality. At the start of the decline air-borne diseases accounted for nearly half of the deaths, and water-food borne for around one third. The drop was predominantly driven by a decline in these two causal groups, and seasonal fluctuations became less pronounced. Because of the fall in post-neonatal mortality, the relative risk of dying amongst neonates rose towards the end of the period. Although 'convulsions' accounted for 50–70% of all infant deaths between 1830 and 1860, this cause had faded away to near insignificance by the beginning of the 1900s. Here we aim to assess the extent to which this particular aspect of decline can be explained by alterations to official instructions regarding registration and in registration practice itself. This article proposes that the decline in deaths from 'convulsions' can be explained by a relabelling of such deaths into 'congenital and birth disorders' amongst neonates, and a mix of 'water-food borne' and 'air-borne diseases' amongst post-neonates. This argument is supported by the fact that the timing of the decline corresponds with the introduction of cause of death certificates issued by medical practitioners, and which most likely resulted in fewer causes of death being reported by lay informants who could only offer vague symptoms rather than informed diagnoses.

Published: March 2023

It has been identified that most medical students are dissatisfied with current embryology teaching, and they often find embryology learning difficult. The present study was conducted to evaluate the perception of faculty and undergraduate medical students regarding the existing teaching-learning practices in embryology. The present cross-sectional study involved faculty, undergraduate, and postgraduate students engaged in embryology teaching-learning. The study was conducted in two steps. In the first step, the undergraduates were provided with a semi-structured questionnaire that addressed the practices of embryology teaching- learning in the current medical curriculum. The responses were recorded using a Likert scale. In the second step, the participants were invited to answer an open-ended question on improving the teaching-learning practices of embryology. The study involved 50 faculty, 232 medical undergraduates, and 15 postgraduate students. Most participants (76.1%) agreed that human embryology is essential in understanding anatomical variations, congenital anomalies, and clinical ailments. Although embryology is interesting to study, it is not easy to comprehend, as stated by most students (52.24%). They also felt that embryology is often neglected while learning Anatomy (70.73%). Ways to improve the embryology teaching-learning practices assessed in step two identified the following themes: image and video-assisted learning, experiential learning, 3D-models assisted learning, case-based learning, specimen-based learning, assessment-based learning, and smallgroup teaching. Embryology teaching-learning is an integral part of the Anatomy curriculum. Therefore, there is a need to reform the existing methodologies of embryology teaching-learning to enhance student engagement. Seeking students and faculty’s perceptions about the current practices of embryology teaching and its impact on their learning becomes useful. This study intents to utilize the feedback gained in improving the process of imparting embryology knowledge and will assist in a positive learning experience for the students.
