Justeru, ia sewajarnya bersifat holistik dan berada di atas tonggak yang mengambil kira ciri-ciri kemanusiaan seperti metafizik,keterampilan, pemikiran saintifik dan potensi keria yang mampu memakmurkan serta menyejahterakan dunia ini. Bagi melestarikan pendidikan, fungsi mengajar dan menyelidik perlu bersifat dinamik dan saling memberi-menerima. Selain kawasan pertindihan, kedua-dua domain tersebut sering dihubungkan oleh elemen inovasi. Dalam mendepani dunia tanpa sempadan, aktiviti pengajaran dan penyelidikan dilihat sedang berhadapan dengan cabaran daripada dalam. E-pembelajaran dan bebanan tugasan merupakan antara cabaran yang boleh mengganggu matlamat pengaiaran dan penyelidikan. Oleh itu, keseimbangan amalan dan praktis dalam perkara seumpama itu perlu dititikberatkan.

Its use in Arabic language learning is focused on because this subject is regarded as difficult to master by students learning it as a second language Thus, this study is aimed at examining the perception toward the use of e-learning (KeLiP) among students in an Arabic language course in Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin (UniSZA). In particular, this article focuses on four main aspects: readiness, awareness, interest in the use of KeLiP and problems that exist throughout the learning process with KeLiP. The survey data were obtained from questionnaires distributed to 69 respondents in UniSZA. The results show that the majority of respondents are willing to use KeLiP, had the awareness of KeLiP, were interested in using it and said they do not face any problems when using KeLiP.

Most people focus on the suitable methods of teaching. Some of the methods that have been used are grammar-translation method, direct method,, structural method, reading method, audio-lingual method, situational method, total physical response method, and communicative approach. As a result,Indonesian government or the department of education keeps on changing the methods of teaching English as a foreign language. It is true that we need to keep up with the progress in teaching methodologies. But there are many other factors that we need to consider when we want to be successful in our English teaching program. First of all, the teaching of English as a foreign language has always been considered very important in Indonesia in order to be able to compete with other countries in terms of science, commerce, and technologies. But in real practice the government does not seem to show ...

Namun begitu, terdapat kajian menunjukkan tiada perbezaan signifikan antara pelajar lelaki dan pelajar perempuan dalam penggunaan SPB (Chang, 1990; Chou, 2002). Malah, ada juga kajian menyimpulkan bahawa kadangkala pelajar lelaki lebih banyak menggunakan sesetengah strategi tertentu (Oxford, 1994; Wharton, 2000).Perbezaan linguistik seperti ortografi juga dapat mempengaruhi penggunaan strategi (Douglas, 1992; Grabe, 1986).

However, the number of mediums of information through mobile smartphones that provide scientific information about al-Aqsa Mosque and Islamic jerusalem (Baitul Maqdis) is minimal. Furthermore, the existing apps using one language only; English, Arabic or Malay, make it difficult to obtain the information. The objective of this need analysis is to obtain information on the basic knowledge of the community of al-Aqsa and Baitul Maqdis mosques. An online questionnaire was distributed to implement this purpose, and respondents were selected by convenience sampling. A total of 601 respondents responded to the questionnaire. The study found that out of five (5) parts of the question submitted, 70% of the respondents were unable to answer correctly or chose the answer "did not know" for the questions. Therefore, this study concludes that it is necessary to develop a scientific learning medium which contains the main information relating to the al-Aqsa Mosque and Islamic jerusalem (Baitul Maqdis). As the acceptance and use of mobile smartphones as a major medium of information in the community, the development of mobile smartphone applications about the al-Aqsa Mosque and Islamic jerusalem (Baitul Maqdis) is essential. Its existence can fill up the loophole of the alternative medium of m-learning related to the Masjid al-Aqsa and Baitul Maqdis in the society.

Therefore, this study is conducted to observe the usage level of both strategies among Arabic language students. The sample consists of 460 Form 4 students chosen at random from 13 Religious Secondary Schools in Terengganu, Malaysia. Data was collected by using a self-questionnaire to gauge the use of social and affective strategies. The results of the study showed that the usage level of social and affective strategies among the respondents is low. Hence, a pedagogical implication suggests that students should be made aware of the importance of social and affective strategies by conducting training workshops and maximizing the use of both strategies.

Oleh itu, kajian ini dijalankan untuk menentukan tahap dan jenis penggunaan strategi pembelajaran kemahiran berbahasa (SPKB) oleh pelajar lelaki dan pelajar perempuan. Data kajian diperoleh melalui soal selidik yang diedarkan kepada 350 orang pelajar tingkatan empat dari 12 buah sekolah menengah agama sekitar Kedah, Malaysia. Dapatan kajian deskriptif menunjukkan kedua-dua kumpulan pelajar menggunakan strategi pada tahap sederhana sama ada secara keseluruhan mahupun berdasarkan konstruk, kecuali pada konstruk strategi membaca, pelajar perempuan menggunakannya pada tahap tinggi. Hasil analisis ujian-t pula menunjukkan terdapat perbezaan signifikan penggunaan SPKB secara keseluruhan dan mengikut lima konstruk strategi utama berdasarkan jantina. Pelajar perempuan didapati mendahului pelajar lelaki dalam penggunaan strategi secara keseluruhan dan berdasarkan lima konstruk strategi utama tersebut. Sementara itu, baki satu konstruk strategi utama iaitu strategi mendengar tidak menunjukkan perbezaan signifikan. Kesimpulannya, pelajar perempuan didapati lebih banyak dan kerap menggunakan strategi pembelajaran bahasa berbanding pelajar lelaki.

This research follows the quasi- experimental design of a control-group A and treatment group B selected randomly doing a pre-test and post-test. The treatment of explicit instruction of phonetic transcriptions for 45 hours was given only to the experimental group. This study focuses on the analysis of oral test answers by learners. Some of the challenges identified in the acquisition of pronunciation are mother tongue interference, mispronunciation because spelling does not ...
