Published: January 2023

Knowledge sharing is crucial for students’ learning process, yet can be an issue for some reasons, as students often refuse to share their knowledge with others. There are various personal, social and technological factors that can affect students’ knowledge sharing behaviour on social media. Hence, this study aims to investigate the factors affecting knowledge sharing behaviour among postgraduate students in Malaysia through the lens of Theory of Planned Behaviour Model and Social Cognitive Theory. This study adopted a quantitative research design and used a survey questionnaire via Google Form as its data collection technique. Simple random sampling was used, and data was collected from 406 postgraduate students in Malaysia, including from Sabah and Sarawak. Data were analysed using SPSS to construct the findings. The findings demonstrate that all independent variables (usefulness, ease of access, reputation enhancement, enjoyment in helping, sense of belonging, social interaction, trust and reciprocity) significantly affect postgraduate students’ knowledge sharing behaviour on social media. Sense of belonging and reciprocity have a strong positive relationship with knowledge sharing behaviour. Whereas, usefulness, ease of access, reputation enhancement, enjoyment in helping, trust and social interaction have a moderate positive relationship with knowledge sharing behaviour. The findings of this study may have various implications for higher education institutions (HEI) and corporate organisations, where knowledge sharing behaviour is essential for academic performance and organisational success. However, this study only used the questionnaire given to obtain data from the respondents without asking for further clarifications or any additional comments from them. Although it is convenient and easy to analyse, the questionnaire does not allow researchers to gain a deeper understanding of respondents’ motivations to share their knowledge on social media. Therefore, future studies may include qualitative research such as structured observation and interviews. A longitudinal study is also recommended for this future study.

Published: January 2023

The reality brought upon by the pandemic has forced educators, language instructors included, to re-evaluate their practice by ensuring that the actual learning takes place and planned objectives are met. In language education programs, equipping future teachers with appropriate knowledge and skills remains as the top priority. In fact, recent literature also highlights the need for teachers to have technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) to cope with the changing demands of online learning and learner diversity. As part of the needs analysis phase to assess students’ TPACK competency, students’ online information searching strategies were investigated by using Information Commitment Survey (Wu & Tsai, 2007) and content analysis of the references list of students’ written coursework and guided reflection. In this case study, the participants were the ESL pre-service teachers in a teacher education program. It was found that the students used multiple web searching strategies such as matching and elaboration strategies. The students also appeared to have ‘mixed’ standards for judging information on the web. The results additionally revealed that students relied heavily on different web resources such as online encyclopaedia, and resources that contain grammar materials, content materials related to their writing topic, citation materials and writing samples that match their writing format. These findings strongly suggest for a more systematic training design of the online writing support should be in a form of a portal of evaluated links to useful resources for ESL writing.
FRAMING THE OTHER WORLD: NARRATING SCARS OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC IN MALAYSIAN EDUCATIONAL CONTEXT

Published: January 2023

The COVID-19 outbreak, which started in March 2020, has affected education in various ways. The closure of schools and universities worldwide has forced both teachers and learners to abandon physical teaching and learning. Instead, they have to adapt themselves to remote online classes. Literature education is no exception. The need to create lively, fun and interactive literature lessons suddenly became impossible. Instead, students were thrown into the world of isolation, fear and helplessness. For the first time in history, literature lessons worldwide have undergone an abrupt change under a new norm. This qualitative study attempts to explore students’ perceptions of COVID-19 pandemic. Data was gathered from written narratives of the midterm assignment of 30 undergraduate TESL students in the Faculty of Psychology and Education, Universiti Malaysia Sabah during Semester 2 session 2021/22. Employing the premise mooted by Ahlberg (2021) who considers the pandemic as a crisis and the process of teaching and learning should take into consideration the factors of context, experience and emotion on learners’ sides, the eBook entitled The Other World was used as a frame narrative for reading activity. Next, students were required to choose two short stories from the volumes and produce their own narrations in dealing with the pandemic. A qualitative inductive content analysis of students’ narratives resulted in 5 codes indicating students’ perception of COVID-19 pandemic. Students have mixed reactions in narrating their personal experiences during the pandemic. Most expressed states of despair and depression, and their readiness to adapt themselves to the new social norms. Others have expressed their concerns for security and safety, while a small number related their experience to the new educational norm. The rest of them related their experiences in retrospect of close family ties and gratitude. The results of this study suggest the use of frame narrative technique among hesitant or problematic ESL students in dealing with a crisis.

Published: January 2023

Particularly persuasive, essay writing is challenging for rural ESL learners. They face difficulty producing organised and coherent writing, which results in their low achievement in the English language. Scaffolding through text modelling in the writing classroom has benefited learners. The present study employed the non-equivalent pre-test post-test control group design. Thirty learners in the experimental group and the control group took the pre-test. The experimental group was treated with a 10-hour intervention, while the control group underwent conventional teaching. Both groups then undertook the post-test. The findings revealed a significant difference between the two groups, with a large effect size of 3.68. The experimental group indicated improvement in using the five-paragraph framework to fulfil the purpose of writing. The group also indicated improvement in the content, organisation and language use marks. The study contributed to the research literature on rural ESL writing and recommended text modelling applied to scaffold persuasive writing.

Authors: Yamil Kennedy , Said Noraini , Swanto Suyansah , Din Wardatul Akmam
Published: January 2023

The recent Covid-19 pandemic has changed and impacted the country's education landscape, a paradigm shift from face-to-face teaching and learning style into home-based learning and teaching (PdPR). During the period, teachers had come out with various teaching strategies to assess pupils’ and some of these strategies are still relevant in this current post pandemic education. Speaking skills in the Malaysian Primary ESL classroom are five elements assessed in the Classroom-Based Assessment (CBA). The CBA achievement of a class in a rural school in Kudat, Sabah, showed that most students performed poorly in speaking skills. Based on the teacher's perspective as a researcher, the problem occurred due to the English Language's lack of exposure and usage. It is only spoken during an English class and not practised outside schooling hours. In this paper, the researcher aims to provide a literature review and past studies on enhancing primary ESL students' speaking skills through multimedia technology-assisted project-based learning. After investigating how multimedia technology-assisted project-based learning could improve the students' speaking skills from the literature review, the researcher proposes this study be carried out at a rural government school in Kudat, Sabah. This research aims to investigate students' speaking performance after the implementation of multimedia technology-assisted project-based learning.

High sensitivity Fabry–Pérot interferometric magnetic sensor based on Fe3O4-doped PDMS composite thin film
Authors: Wang Xingfeng , Yang Jianfeng
Published: January 2023

A magnetic field sensor based on Fabry–Pérot interferometer (FPI) with soft gold magnetic composite film (GMCF) is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. GMCF is fabricated by Fe3O4-doped polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) film and adhered thin gold membrane via van der Waals force. Applying an external magnetic field, GMCF can vibrate under magnetic forces and cause a change in the cavity length of FPI and hence modulates the interference spectra. Experimental results indicate that the sensor can achieve maximum sensitivity of 390 pm mT−1 under a linear magnetic field intensity ranging from 0 to 65 mT. The proposed sensor could help with magnetic field detection in complex environments.

Prerequisites for the training of high school students in the competence to carry out experiences in the humanities
Authors: Cernei Andriana
Published: January 2023

Today, the idea of moving from traditional training to research-based learning is being circulated more and more often - a premise for the formation of the competence to carry out experiences in the humanities - which aims at the organic integration of the student into the knowledge-based society. Being a didactic method based on experience, in its context the student learns to apply in practice the theoretical knowledge obtained in the classroom, acting pertinently, individually or in groups, to solve the problems identified in society. In this context, learning through research is the one that offers opportunities for the cumulative development of knowledge, their understanding, thus developing students' motivation and interest in science.

Authors: Sunday Itasanmi  , Taofeek Gbolahan Muibi  , Omobola Adelore
Published: January 2023

The outbreak of COVID-19 and its impact on learning globally cannot be overemphasized. Specifically, the pandemic severely affected adult learning and these further compounded issues bedeviling literacy promotion, especially in developing nations like Nigeria. This study assessed the impact of COVID-19 on adult learning and the place of technologies in facilitating adult learning in Nigeria. A qualitative research method through the lens of the interpretive paradigm was adopted for this study. The study is underpinned by the Theory of Andragogy and the Technology Acceptance Model. An in-depth interview with forty-six adult literacy facilitators across selected states in the country forms the participants of the study. The interview transcript was analyzed using a thematic framework. Findings revealed amongst others that COVID-19 impaired adult learning significantly in Nigeria. There exists a strong belief among literacy facilitators in the country that technologies can be used as an instructional delivery mechanism for learners in adult literacy programmes. Thus, radio, television, and mobile phone ranked 1st, 2nd, and 3rd respectively among suggested technological tools to facilitate adult learning in Nigeria. Based on the findings, it was suggested that there is a need for literacy stakeholders in the country to rethink adult literacy delivery modalities beyond the traditional approach. Also, it is suggested that enabling environment should be provided and familiar technologies such as radio, television and mobile phones should be used with adequate guidance and encouragement to improve learners’ access and participation in literacy programmes. While technology is not the silver bullet that will solve obstacles facing access to and participation in adult literacy programmes, there is a need to explore opportunities in the use of technologies to facilitate adult learning in Nigeria.

Published: January 2023

A tanulmány célja, hogy leírja és elemezze a területi különbségeket Erdélyben a 18. század közepén, az új adórendszer bevezetése előtt. Az 1750-es összeírás társadalmi-gazdasági jelenségeinek elemzése alapján több mint 1500 települést csoportba soroltunk jellemzőik hasonlósága alapján. A klaszterelemzés lehetővé teszi a kutató számára a térbeli mintázatok (szétszórt vagy koncentrált) azonosítását, valamint a létrehozott csoportok sajátos, megkülönböztető jellemzőinek azonosítását. Bár a módszert a történelemkutatásban ritkán alkalmazzák, különösen a régi adathalmazok esetében, a velejáró problémák miatt, megpróbáltuk kihasználni az előnyeit a következő jelenségek vizsgálatára: (1) egybeesik-e a klaszterek térbeli mintázata a három politikai nemzet (+románok) elhelyezkedésével, vagy sem (ez utóbbi esetben a társadalmi-gazdasági különbségek nem voltak annyira egyértelműek, hogy etnikai alapú törésvonalakat hozzanak létre); (2) a társadalmi-gazdasági mutatók átlagértékei alapján a hasonlóság-eltérés szintje mellett a csoportok közötti fejlettségi szintbeli különbségek is vizsgálhatók; (3) végül a klaszterek térbeli mintázata lehetővé teszi, hogy a létrehozott kistérségeket a meglévő közigazgatási határokkal vagy a néprajzi régiók és tájak határaival hasonlítsuk össze.

Value creation in the 4IR
Authors: Azionya Caroline
Published: January 2023

Value creation in the 4IR is customer-centric, interactive and hyper-personalised. Real-time consumer brand experiences, interactions and relations can be transformed into quantifiable data that can be monitored and tracked (‘datafication’). This study theorises that platform ecosystems, including millennials, converge on digital multisided platforms (MSPs), which are sociotechnical constructs that foment and generate significant value for platform owners and users. As value creation has risen as a digital economy business imperative, and a subject for academic research, the importance of millennials to brands warrants further investigation. This study aims to show how the interplay of social relations between millennials and brands, along with technology, are used to create value from the millennials’ perspective. To this end, it uses a consumer-dominant logic to explain and predict novel connections between key value creation constructs by millennial prosumers, including sole-creation, co-creation, collaboration, value destruction, value depreciation and value co-destruction. It presents three propositions that reimagine fit-for-purpose brands as interoperable constructs which exhibit complementarity, as well as the social dynamics of millennial interaction on digital MSPs. Findings indicate a cyclical value-interdependent relational system between millennials and brands, where millennial interaction leads to the creation or destruction of value. It also demonstrates how brands and platform owners can collaborate with millennials as an important and technologically savvy generation to co-create, capture and communicate value on digital MSPs.
Armed drones and international humanitarian law
Authors: Niyitunga Eric Blanco
Published: January 2023

The militarisation of Artificial Intelligence Diplomacy has resulted in the development of heavy weapons that are more powerful than traditional weaponry, fail to distinguish between civilians and combatants, and cause unnecessary suffering. Superpowers and middle powers have made significant investments in digital technologies, resulting in the production of digital weapons that violate international humanitarian law and human rights standards, and complicate the achievement of global peace. Armed drones and militarised robots cause unnecessary pain and suffering to helpless civilians. These weapons have been used to combat terrorism, but, surprisingly, have not addressed issues of terrorism that affect post-Cold War international relations. As a result, the use of armed drones is causing more harm than is necessary to achieve the objective of war. There is a call for international artificial intelligence (AI) governance, as well as a need to understand the effects and serious threats that armed drones pose to international humanitarian law (IHL), as well as to peace processes in international relations and global cooperation. Scholars, policy-makers, human rights activists and peace practitioners should participate more actively in debates about the military application of AI diplomacy, in order to develop effective AI diplomacy rules and regulations. This serves to mitigate the risks and threats associated with armed drones on IHL and international human rights standards, which are the foundations of the post-modern world.

Although neither of these strategies is successful in determining when to enter into a transaction and when to exit it to maximize profits or reduce losses. The answer to this issue is financial astrology, which uses planetary positions to predict stock/index prices. In the study, the link between the NSE NIFTY and the Moons passage through Indian astrologys zodiacal signs is explored. An analysis of historical data from March 2010 to April 2020 is used in this study. In this research paper, we examine whether the moons conjunction with 12 distinct zodiac signs has significant bullish and bearish effects. Based on the studys findings, investors may be able to predict when to buy or sell stocks based on lunatic trends. Trends are determined by conjunctions that have an average positive return and those that have an average negative return. Further research is needed in term of investigating the relationship between psychology factors (heuristic bias, information ignorance, and other factors) and investment decision making by putting lunatic trends as intervening factor. The effect of moon on certain anomalies has to examine specifically. Additionally, the study adds to the body of literature on the impact of lunar factors on stock prices.

One of the systemic solutions for the Russian Federation’s foreign trade development under toughened sanctions of the Western states could be the introduction of clearing in international settlements with its counterparties. One of the main prerequisites, however, is how to determine a clearing unit of account and “fair” exchange rates of national currencies to ensure commensurability in export / import operations. This article proposes a new method of defining a clearing currency the author called the “uniclear” based on the equation of exchange within the quantity theory of money (QTM). In part I of this article, we identify five stages in the evolution of theoretical and applied studies of various schools of research on the issue of the equation of exchange and monetary circulation as well as outline four main current strands of scholarly literature that discuss the QTM and ways to compose monetary aggregates. Subsequently, we present the author’s method of defining the uniclear as a unit of account. Part II of the article describes in detail the calculation procedure with countries’ GDP shares as weights, the results of computing exchange rates of national currencies of 148 countries for the period from 2010 to 2021 as well as advantages and drawbacks of the proposed method.

The purpose of the article is to propose recommendations to increase the role of the “earth” production factor among other factors of production. Models of the innovative multiplier-accelerator are presented, forming a synergistic effect in the interaction of production factors “earth” and “knowledge capital”. It is concluded that with the transition of the economy to the 6th technological structure, the increasing contribution to the economic growth of the capital of knowledge embodied in the relevant factors of production and the forms of their joint or autonomous functioning may, along with investments in fixed assets, affect stimulated investments and changes in the total income of the state (the effect of an innovative multiplier-accelerator), repeatedly strengthening the importance of the investment component of economic growth also in traditional investment objects in the real sector of the economy, including in natural resources.

The Relationship between Foreign Trade and Economic Growth: Causality Analysis
Authors: Emir Zeynep , Dizge Fatma
Published: January 2023

One of the main topics of economic research is the relationship between foreign trade and economic growth. Foreign trade, which is the cornerstone of economic development, stimulates economic growth via improving the resource allocation and the optimal level of production. In this context, this study aimed at analyzing the relationship between foreign trade and economic growth.
For this aim, causality analysis was carried out by using the annual data set for Turkey for the period of 1960-2019. In the analysis, the relationship between the Gross Domestic Product (2010 = 100 at constant prices) and import and export variables is discussed. According to the Granger causality test results, the reason for GDP, exports and imports was found. On the basis of the period discussed, while exports and imports are not the reasons for GDP, similarly, a mutual causality relationship between imports and exports was not determined, and the reasons for these results were discussed.
