Published: January 2025

Traffic congestion and pollution are problems in major urban areas due to the increased use of vehicles on the road. Reducing the number of private vehicles on the road requires a multifaceted approach, including providing efficient, reliable, and accessible public transport. Park and Ride (P&R) facilities support this approach by encouraging the public to use public transport by providing convenient parking facilities near transit hubs or major transportation routes. This paper aims to identify the determinants that influence the use of P&R facilities in considering various factors, including safety and security, availability, accessibility, and cost. 450 respondents were interviewed face to face using a structured questionnaire survey to user and non-user groups at three (3) major transit stations and their surrounding areas. The result has shown the attractiveness of P&R to the user group when it has good connectivity, easy to access, more parking spaces and within walkability distance from P&R and the platform. The feedback from the non-user groups indicated that P&R will be more attractive when the parking is free provided with assurance of the safety and security for customer and their vehicle, more information about P&R locations, clear road signage directions to P&R, and information about the cost and time saving when non user group shift mode from private to public transport.

Published: January 2025

Small and medium manufacturing businesses (SMEs) are now enhancing their operational performance by better managing their supply chains. To achieve better management, a firm must investigate several aspects, including supply chain management and quality management practices. The study aims to establish the relationship between various quality management practices, such as process management, continuous improvement, and leadership, and their impact on supply chain performance in selected SMEs in Malaysia. Primary sources, specifically questionnaires distributed to respondents via online Google Forms and printed copies, provided the data for this study. This study included a purposive sample of 40 respondents from specifically selected SMEs in Johor, Melaka, and Negeri Sembilan. The study found no statistically significant relationship between process management, continuous improvement, and leadership with regard to supply chain performance. This suggests that these aspects of quality management practices are not essential for enhancing supply chain performance. Further research is therefore suggested to look for other strategic management factors possible, such as business analytics, innovation, and talent management that might improve supply chain performance.

In the modern era, the usage of internet has increased tremendously which in turn has led to the evolution of large amount of data. Cyber world has its own pros and cons. One of the alarming situations in web 4.0 is cyber bullying a type of cyber-crime. When the bullying occurs on line with the aid of technology it is known as cyber bullying. This research paper have surveyed the work done by 30 different researchers on cyber bullying, and elaborated on different methodologies adopted by them for the detection of bullying. Cybercrimes involve all the crimes where internet is used as an access medium and committed through some electronic device such as computers and mobile phones. Unavailability of datasets, hidden identity of predators and the privacy of the victims are the main factors for limiting the past research in cyberbullying detection. Considering these factors, an effective text mining approach using machine learning algorithms is proposed to proactively detect bullying text. The dataset collected from myspace.com and Preverted-Justice.com has been used to evaluate the system’s performance. Three types of feature namely textual, behavioral and demographic features are extracted from the dataset as compared to earlier study over the same dataset where only textual features were considered. Textual features include certain bullying words that if exists within the text may lead to a true outcome for cyberbullying. Personality trait features are extracted for the user if it is involving once in bullying may bully in future too. While demographic features extracted from dataset include age, gender and location. The system is evaluated through different performance measures for both classifiers used and the performance of Support Vector Machine classifier is found better than the Bernoulli NB with an overall 87.14accuracy.

Published: January 2025

Avoiding and minimizing carbon emissions and air pollution is one of the main obstacles to the automotive industry's technological advancement. Additionally, in response to the European Union's promotion of limiting the use of conventional fuel-powered vehicles, such as diesel and gasoline vehicles, the automotive industry has increased research and field applications of electric vehicles. Furthermore, in reaction to the European Union's push to limit the use of traditional fuel-powered vehicles, such as gasoline and diesel vehicles, the automotive industry has increased research and field applications of electric vehicles. Compared to internal combustion engines, the batteries used in electric vehicles today have a significantly longer cycle life, are more environmentally friendly, have a longer driving range, and require less time to charge. Depending on the various techniques used to cool the phase change materials, the multi-physical battery thermal management systems are classified into three categories: air-cooled systems, liquid-cooled systems, and heat-pipe-cooled systems

Authors: Istianah Tia Nur
Published: January 2025

Self-assessment in language learning is important to understanding students' needs and challenges in mastering Arabic and English skills, especially for those outside the language department. Therefore, this study aims to explore the differences in the level of language learning difficulty and the readiness of students from non-language majors to learn Arabic and English. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with a survey method, involving 109 students from three Islamic universities in the Cirebon area as respondents. Data was collected through a questionnaire consisting of two main components: the language learning difficulty scale and the learning readiness scale. Data analysis was carried out to compare the difficulty level felt with the student's readiness to learn English. The results showed that both variables had the same response in terms of difficulty and readiness to learn. The classification of difficulty in Arabic and English is the same, namely at a moderate level with a percentage of 64% and 51%, and the dominant indicator that is considered difficult for students to master is the fluency indicator. In addition, the comparison of learning readiness in Arabic and English did not differ significantly. The motivation indicators of both languages have the same percentage of 35%. Thus, the motivation of non-language students to learn Arabic and English is higher than the other two indicators.

An Ethnographic Study of the Akan One Week Funeral Observation in Ghana: Making a Case for Its Stepwise Documentation
Authors: Faleke Victoria Ogunnike , Antiri Kodua Mavis , Ampong Bernard , Gyimah Olivia
Published: January 2025

Every society is culturally bound. Its tradition, values, norms are embedded in culture and language is the vehicle through which they are expressed. Language can be described as an identity of every human being. It is a natural endowment fund given to man for communication. One’s feelings are expressed through language via either the verbal or the non-verbal mode. As language exists with man naturally, so does death exist, and it is inevitable. In every culture the dead is honoured, as it is believed that they are not dead but have exited to the world beyond, where their ancient ones have been. Thus, the Akans hold the celebration of the dead in high esteem, and it is observed in three main phases, namely the one-week funeral observation, the main funeral rites and the family sitting. The focus of this study is the one-week funeral observation with the aim of stepwise documentation of the events that transpire therein. The research adopted Hyme’s Ethnography of Communication Theory for the analysis of information gathered. The data collection was a purposeful and a qualitative one that takes into cognizance surreptitious recordings (only) of the family gatherings, making observations and inquiries. The design of the study is a descriptive one that answers how the ‘One Week Funeral’ is observed among the Akans.  The data were collected in Kumasi metropolis (as it is the capital of the Ashanti Region, the seat of the Otumfo Osei Tutu) in Ghana, from September 2022-February 2023. Ten different family gatherings in relation to the one-week funeral observation were visited for the study, and it was observed that there were no variations in the procedural approaches used in the different occasions. The study revealed the following: in terms of linguistic expressions; the use of specialised form of proverbs, peculiar euphemism, strict observations of social norms of speaking, special personae, avoidance of code-mixing and code-switching. Also revealing were the stringent adherence of cultural values associated with the one-week funeral observation and the specialised use of graphological features of colours. The paper concluded that the one-week observation has enchanting cultural values. The stringent adherence of rules in all the gatherings connote positive effect of the occasions on the unity and mutual coexistence of family ties and communal living. These are regarded as part of the forces encouraging and entrenching peace and harmony among the Akans, which is believed to have transcended to the entire nation, Ghana, and might be part of the reasons for the relative peace and harmony Ghana has been enjoying over the years. The study recommended that, the event should be digitalised into ‘cybercem’ (that is cyber-cemetery), where all activities concerning funeral rites be documented for future reference.

В статье рассматриваются особенности поведения лиц, осужденных за коррупцию в Казахстане, с акцентом на их социальные и психологические характеристики. Авторы исследуют, каким образом эти особенности влияют на их поведение и восприятие наказания. Опираясь на данные криминологических и психологических исследований, работа показывает, что коррупционеры часто обладают такими качествами, как манипулятивность, стремление к власти и цинизм, что усложняет их ресоциализацию и затрудняет выявление и предотвращение их преступлений. В статье подчеркивается необходимость разработки более эффективных программ ресоциализации, учитывающих поведенческие и психологические характеристики осужденных за коррупцию.

Asymmetric Dynamics Between Exchange Rates and Crude Oil Prices: A Cross-Country Assessment
Authors: Akbar Shahid , Munir Farzana , Iqbal Muhammad
Published: January 2025

This study examines whether there exists nonlinearity between exchange rates and crude oil prices for two developing economies (i.e., Pakistan and Sri Lanka) by taking data from January 2010 to March 2024. To identify structural break (asymmetry), Zivot-Andrews unit root test has been utilized. Further, nonlinear and linear Granger Causality tests have been practiced to inspect the symmetry and asymmetry between unrefined oil prices and exchange rates. A unidirectional symmetry causality has been recognized between prices of unrefined oil and exchange rates while no asymmetry causality has been identified. These results advocate that swings in crude oil prices do not forecast potential shifts in these two nations' currency rates in a nonlinear way, and vice versa. The lack of nonlinear causation may reflect the complexities of the mutual influence between oil prices and currency rates, in which other aspects such as monetary policy, external shocks, or market processes may act more importantly in shaping their dynamic linkages.

STUDENT STRATEGIES IN LEARNING VOCABULARY
Authors: Hamsiah Andi
Published: January 2025

This research is based on the idea that students must use in daily interactions in school language programs. Therefore, learning vocabulary is very important for improving students' language skills. Students should learn as much vocabulary as possible to communicate well with others. This study investigates students’ vocabulary learning strategies outside of classroom activities. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods, where the researcher implements interviews and observation as data collection techniques. Researchers used observations to understand the school environment where students learn in school language programs. Researchers used semi-structured interviews with three students as participants to find out strategies for learning vocabulary. The interview technique used was focus group discussion to reduce students' nervousness in expressing ideas. The data obtained was then divided into several classifications of vocabulary learning strategies by Schmitt (1990), namely determination, social, memory, cognitive and meta-cognitive strategies. The research results show that students often use meta-cognitive strategies to improve their vocabulary skills.
THE PROCESS OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT IN EARLY CHILDREN: THE ROLE OF FAMILY, SCHOOL, AND COMMUNITY IN PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Hamsiah Andi
Published: January 2025

Unbeknownst to many, a child's character does not develop spontaneously; instead, it undergoes a process that involves specific phases, particularly during early development, especially for young children. Parental attention in shaping a child's character during this period is crucial. In forming the character of young children, the environment and the family role-play a significant influence. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method to explore this process. In this article, the researcher examines the process of forming the character of young children, focusing on three main elements: family, school, and community. The research findings indicate that the formation of the character of young children begins with the family, is further influenced by the school, and involves the role of the community, including play communities and talent development courses attended by young children. Nevertheless, the family remains the primary and foremost factor in the process of shaping a child's character, being the most minor and highly influential community for them.

This research aims to determine the effectiveness of the STEM approach on learning outcomes about the properties of liquids in Class VB students at the IKIP I Makassar State Elementary School Complex. This research is a form of research with a quantitative approach, using a type of pre-experimental designs (non-designs) research with a one-group pretest-posttest research design. The design is intended to determine the effectiveness of the STEM learning approach on student learning outcomes in Learning the Properties of Liquids. The average student learning outcomes before implementing the STEM Approach was 76.74, while the average student learning outcomes after implementing the STEM Approach was 86.09. This means that the learning outcomes of students using the STEM approach are better when compared to conventional methods. The difference in learning outcomes is significant, where the Sig. (2-tailed) 0.000 smaller than the sig level. 0.05. This means that the average value of student learning outcomes after implementing the STEM Approach compared to before implementing the STEM Approach is 86.09 > 76.74. The results of the hypothesis test show that the STEM approach is practical in the learning outcomes of class V students at the IKIP I Makassar Complex Public Elementary School. The level of effectiveness of using the STEM approach before and after learning can be seen from the average N-Gain Score of 0.4624 in the interval 0.3 ≤ g ≤ 0.7 in the medium category. This can be seen from an increase in the average student learning outcomes, initially in the excellent category, to becoming very good categories and the percentage of students who obtained learning outcomes in the good and very good categories, which has increased.

addresses the appeal of game-based learning for students. Despite the prevalence of game-based learning research, limited studies focus on non-digital approaches, particularly in English for Biology courses among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners in higher education settings. Accordingly, this quantitative descriptive study aims to fill the research gap by exploring undergraduate students' attitude towards non-digital game-based learning in an English for Biology course. The study, conducted at the Biology Education Department, Universitas Negeri Makassar, involves 64 students who experienced non-digital game-based learning through a collaborative word-guessing game. The research instrument utilized in this study was an attitude questionnaire which demonstrates high validity and reliability. Results of data analysis indicate an overall positive attitude (72.81%) among the students towards non-digital game-based learning, emphasizing enjoyment, motivation, retention, and engagement. Students' favorable disposition could be attributed to the unconventional learning atmosphere created by game elements, including rules, challenges, feedback, and rewards. The study suggests educators consider integrating non-digital game-based learning, fostering enjoyment, engagement, and retention, while emphasizing the importance of autonomy in promoting intrinsic motivation for positive learning outcomes.
