Published: August 2024

Background: Demand for rehabilitation in Malaysia has increased following the spike in Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) cases since 2020. With limited delivery of physical therapy services, travel restrictions, and risk of virus transmissions, telerehabilitation presents an alternative to traditional rehabilitation. Previous studies have investigated the perception of telerehabilitation among healthcare professionals in Malaysia, but lack investigations on the perceptions, willingness, and barriers toward participation in telerehabilitation among Malaysian COVID-19 patients. Therefore, it is important to understand the perceptions, willingness, and barriers toward participation in telerehabilitation among Malaysian COVID-19 patients to determine the applicability of telerehabilitation in Malaysia. The purpose of this study was to identify the perceptions, willingness, and barriers toward participation in telerehabilitation among Malaysian COVID-19 patients. Methodology: This is a quantitative, cross-sectional study. The recruited Malaysian COVID-19 patients were required to fill in a self-administered online questionnaire. The data collected were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 21 and presented in frequencies and percentages. Results: 166 Malaysian COVID- 19 patients were included in this study. Most participants were students aged 18-25 years old (68.1%). The participants were highly educated, had high access to technology, and had a high ability in using technological devices and the internet. Most of the participants showed good perceptions toward telerehabilitation and a high willingness to participate in telerehabilitation during (75.3%, n=125) and after (65.7%, n=109) the pandemic. The most frequently selected human and technical barriers to telerehabilitation participation were that telerehabilitation was not as effective as face-to-face physical therapy sessions (18.7%) and lack of exercise equipment (34.8%), respectively. Conclusion: Overall, most participants had high perceptions towards telerehabilitation and were willing to participate in telerehabilitation with the acknowledgment of barriers towards telerehabilitation, indicating that the implementation and development of telerehabilitation in Malaysia are possible.

Published: August 2024

This research study explores the language assessment practices of teachers of English language courses taught at undergraduate level in Pakistani universities. The study aimed (1) to find which language skills and aspects are mostly assessed in practice; (2) to find the teachers’ practices in using test items to assess English language; and (3) to see the types of assessment tools frequently used for language assessment by in-service Pakistani universities’ teachers of English. Using convenient purposive sampling technique, the data was collected through a questionnaire with constructed response items from 104 in-service university teachers of English language courses. The frequencies of responses were calculated with the help of SPSS. The findings indicate that teachers assess writing skills more than other language skills through short-answer and long-answer questions. The findings also show that Pakistani teachers’ assessment practices involve utilization of limited assessment techniques and test items that are mostly traditional in nature. Use of limited alternative assessment types is also noticed with projects and oral presentations as the most frequently used forms. Assessment of listening skills seems compromised in this scenario. There is a need to expand the scope of language teachers’ assessment practices by utilizing the full range of assessment tools and techniques in assessing the language proficiency of the learners within the contemporary context of language use to make the language assessment process more reliable.

Published: August 2024

Tujuan tulisan ini dimaksudkan untuk menjelaskan keberadaan manusia dalam filsafat pendidikan.Tugas filosof adalah mendukung dialog antar wacana yang ada, serta mengembangkan budaya rasional yang ditandai dengan kebebasan dan tanggung jawab dalam menciptakan dunia yang lebih damai. Bagi Weil, refleksi filosofis pada dasarnya terkait dengan politik dan juga dengan seluruh kehidupan manusia. Filsafat adalah gerakan moral atau pilihan dinamis untuk mengubah dunia dari keadaan karakter naluriah ke keadaan rasional kehidupan yang damai.Tulisan ini menggunakan metode analisis komparatif. Tulisan ini menunjukkan bahwa persoalan eksistensi manusia (the problem of human being) merupakan persoalan penting dalam filsafat pendidikan karena pendidikan sebagai kebutuhan manusia tidak dapat dipisahkan dari manusia itu sendiri. Manusia adalah “homo educandum”, makhluk yang dapat mendidik dan dididik. Pendidikan itu sendiri berkaitan dengan keberadaan guru dan siswa sebagai manusia.
Investigating the effect of modeling exchange rate fluctuations in creating the advantage of foreign trade in the framework of the resistance economy system

The purpose of this research is to model exchange rate fluctuations in creating the advantage of foreign trade in the framework of a resistance economy system, and we are looking for an answer to the question of whether changes in exchange rates affect the return on assets in the framework of an asset pricing model based on foreign trade in the economic system. Is resistance effective? And if it is effective, is this effect positive or negative? Resistance economics is a literature that has been proposed to deal with international sanctions. Iran's economy must now take steps based on the right principles so that it can overcome international sanctions and turn the threat of sanctions into an opportunity. Those principles and foundations that Iran's economy should have have created a literature called resistance economy. Monetary and financial policies should be specified in this economic literature and we should always answer the question of what we are looking for in the policies we do. In order to understand how monetary and financial policies, etc. should be and what direction they should follow, we must first have a correct understanding of Iran's economy and the main problem of Iran's economy. For example, a policy is implemented with a goal, but then it becomes clear that not only have we not reached the goal, but we have moved away from it. Based on this, in the literature of resistance economy, first of all, we should know what is the main problem of Iran's economy? After that, we have to identify the right way to deal with the problem, and that is where we can talk about monetary and financial policies and all kinds of other policies. Exchange rate regimes and its fluctuations can have serious consequences for countries' economies. Theoretically, the exchange rate affects inflation, foreign trade, capital account and other key macroeconomic variables. The results of the trade balance model show that the nominal exchange rate has a negative effect on the trade balance. While the real exchange rate has a positive relationship with the trade balance. For example, we can refer to Iran between 1959 and 2003, where the devaluation of the national currency has increased the motivation to strengthen and produce non-oil exports. thousand million dollars compared to 1400. In this research, we are looking for an answer to the question: modeling exchange rate fluctuations on creating an advantage. What are the effects of foreign trade in the framework of the resistance economy system?

The planning and construction of Beijing's urban sub-center is a significant strategic deployment made by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Judicial suggestions serve as an important means for the people's courts to extend their judicial functions and support the high-quality development of the sub-center. However, there is an urgent need to improve the level of participation in social governance. This article, through on-site research at the People's Court of Tongzhou District, listening to special report meetings, and obtaining relevant sample data, aims to explore the feasibility of expanding the subject of judicial suggestions, balancing the types of judicial suggestion content, and addressing issues such as the low social consensus and insufficient foresight of the suggestions currently existing in the court system.
