A group of 52 students were taught Jawi both with traditional methods and with educational technology media methods. Test results found that using educational technology media led to a greater improvement in student performance and understanding of Jawi, with over 63% of students increasing their scores, compared to 42% with traditional teaching. The study concludes that educational technology stimulates more effective learning and improves student engagement and interactive learning.
Instructional media functioning to deliver the lesson has a very important role. There are a lot of instructional media used in learning process; one of those is interactive multimedia. This study aims to find out students response toward game based interactive media as instructional media in elementary school. The method used in this study was descriptive qualitative. The sample in this study was 10 students 5th grade elementary school. The data collecting methods were interview, observation and questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed by using interactive analysis consist of data collecting, data reduction, data presenting and conclusion. The result of this study shows that the student gave a good response toward game-based interactive multimedia. The students like and support the use of game based interactive multimedia as instructional media. Students felt that it was easier to understand lesson because the lesson was delivered not only through text, but also picture, audio, video and animation. The game in interactive media make the student be entertained and active in learning process. It is suggested that the teacher cooperate with the expert in education technology to improve interactive multimedia as interaction media.
Design and Implementation Multimedia Learning Success for Vocational Schools IJECEIAES
This research aims to design a web-based multimedia applications, interactive learning, in order to improve the learning outcomes of students, especially students of Vocational High School. Multimedia Learning has been designed with some additional content in the form of applications: decision support system for multimedia usage based on Model of Multimedia Learning Success. The population obtained from respondents vocational school in Central Java, which is already implementing multimedia learning. The method used is qualitative analysis in the form of: the development of multimedia learning integrated with decision support systems. Design and implementation of multimedia learning success system that is abbreviated "Sikemuning". Sikemuning can be used to measure or provide guidance for teachers in the use of multimedia. Interviews with several respondents teachers from vocational schools in Central Java showed that: the system success multimedia learning developed in this study can be used as feedback to assess the success and effectiveness of the implementation of learning activities, multimedia learning can improve the performance and intelligence of vocational school students.
Problem-based learning is generally done with face-to-face interaction. This learning process, however, has not provided a lot of time for learners to find limitless and timeless information and learning resources. It still depends on the teacher as a source of information. Students are very dependent on the presence of lecturers during face-to-face interaction. This research aims to develop a Problem-based Blended Learning (PB2L) model to support student to improve their creative thinking skills. The method used in this research was R&D with ASSURE development model. Product validation was done through an expert’s assessment by using the expert’s validation sheet. The practicality of the product is tested with limited trials with college lecturers and some students with questionnaires and interviews. Product effectiveness was seen by implementing limited development testing to a particular class with a one group pretest-posttest design and the result was analyzed by using a Paired-Samples T-Test. The result of this research is a Problem-based Blended Learning (PB2L) valid, practical and effectively improves students' creative thinking abilities. The effectiveness of the learning model was also proven on the basis of Paired-Samples T-Test of students’ pretest and posttest with sig. (2-tailed) 0.000. This learning gives students the opportunity to think systematically by beginning by criticizing the interesting contextual problems and ending with meaningful reflection with adequate learning resources both in face-to-face and online interaction.
This study proposes to present a sample design of a flipped learning instructional model for teaching Islamic Studies course at an Indonesian higher education institution. A bottom-up flipped learning model was developed in this study, based on Bloom’s taxonomy of educational objectives. A Learning Management System (LMS), Schoology, was employed as a platform to share pre-class video lectures for student learning activities outside-of-class. Three main activities proposed by the researchers outside of the class activities, namely, Watching, Summarizing, and Notetaking (WSN), whereas give and take conversation is the main class activity. This study implies that the bottom-up flipped learning model could potentially be implemented for teaching Islamic studies course in Indonesian higher education institutions, with the aim of fostering students' highest level of cognitive domains and independent learning skills. This study has implications for the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education and the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia or policymakers to consider the flipped classroom as a contemporary teaching model for teaching Islamic studies course and other subjects at any in Indonesian higher education institutions.

STUDENT’S ATTITUDES TOWARD INTEGRATING MOBILE TECHNOLOGY INTO TRANSLATION ACT...IJITE
Previous research shows that the integration of mobile phones in the classroom is challenging, but numerous studies have also demonstrated that wireless networks and mobile tools to support collaborative learning improve educational outcomes. This study aims to question the feasibility of replicating their research methodology in Taiwanese classrooms. For this purpose, two conventional classes of second year license degree in Applied Foreign Languages were the respondents. The students’ attitudes were observed and their participation was examined through an interview that revealed the perceptions of their learning experiences. The results of this study show that students, when allowed to use their cell phones according to their own needs in a collaborative learning, become more interested in their learning and can improve their English efficiency more than students in the conventional classroom. It is thus recommended that highly advanced technology be integrated with more flexibility to match students’ learning needs and motivations.

Social media is basically a structure that combines individuals, communities, companies or organizations that can share their interests, attitudes, values, lifestyles, visions and friendships. In the field of eLearning this structure can be used in many ways and through different web tools. It can provide educators with an opportunity to engage learners in the online classroom, as well as to support development of learner skills and competencies.
This article argues that it is necessary to move blended learning beyond learning management systems and engage students in an active use of the web as a resource for their self-regulated study, for problem solving and collaborative activities. The case study explored in this paper explains the role of social media in promoting cognitive and meta-cognitive learners development while using a constructivist teaching and learning approach. This paper presents the findings from a specific case study, as well as general guidance to instructors for incorporating social media in a blended learning environment, including the “Traditional Classroom”. It is also suggested a limitation of the use of learning management systems to cover the development of social competences and it is argued that self-regulated students are supported by personal web tools and engaged in different kinds of social networks.
TEACHER EDUCATORS’ PERCEPTION TOWARDS PEDAGOGICAL BENEFITS OF WIKIThiyagu K
Wikis are considered to be one of the best ways of combining Information Communication Technology (ICT) with teaching and learning methodologies in a classroom, The application of blogs and wikis in higher education, particularly in teachers‘ preparation programs, has been documented very recently (Dunaway, Michelle. 2011). The majority of teachers are neither familiar, nor skilful in employing this tool in the process of learning. Exposure to this tool during pre-service and in-service preparation program is thought to be helpful in promoting willingness to use it in teaching career (Bassoppo-Moyo, 2006). Therefore, the current study is a trial to study reports on their perceptions towards the learning experiences they had during academic wikis and the advantages and disadvantages of incorporating this web technology into the curriculum. So that, the investigator proposed the title of the study is “Teacher Educators’ Perception towards the Pedagogical Benefits of Wiki in a Tirunelveli District”. The main aim of the study is to assess the perception towards the pedagogical benefits of wiki among the teacher educators of Tirunelveli district. Survey method is employed for this study. The investigator has chosen 150 teacher educators as a sample for the study in a random sampling technique. Finally the investigator concludes; (a) Average level perception towards pedagogical benefits of wiki among the teacher educators. (b) There is no significant difference in the mean scores of teacher educators’ perception towards pedagogical Benefits of Wiki with respect to their gender, age, subject, marital status, year of experience and educational qualification.

Despite the literature supporting technology use in schools as ben.docxbradburgess22840
Despite the literature supporting technology use in schools as beneficial for students, and despite the wide use of social technology, schools continue to be slow to change its integration in the classroom (Livingstone, 2012). It is imperative that teachers increase their use of technology in the classroom in order to prepare our K-12 students referred to as "digital natives," for the 21st century. Though many schools have technology available for use (Alger & Kopcha, 2008), barriers exist in incorporating technology into lesson plans, namely teacher reluctance (Keengwe, Onchwari, & Wachira, 2008). Teachers' hesitation in using technology more frequently is due to a number of factors, such as lack of time to learn new technology and incorporate it into lesson plans, beliefs around using technology in instruction, availability of working technology and technical support, comprehensive professional development, and a culture that promotes using new technology, self-efficacy, and teaching methods (Alger & Kopcha, 2008).
Literature Review
Self-Efficacy toward Technology
According to Bandura (1986) individuals possess a self-system that determines how much effort people will expend on any activity. Bandura also asserts that self-efficacy beliefs may be a strong predictor of related performance. Studies have shown a positive correlation between self-efficacy in technology and technology ability (Anderson & Maninger, 2007; Anderson, Grouulx, & Maninger, 2011). According to the technology acceptance model introduced by Davis (1989), there is a correlation between users' perceived ease of use and predicted adoption of technology. In his study investigating Moodles, Yeou (2016) found self-efficacy to be a critical factor in undergraduates' use of the technology tool. In a similar study investigating pre-service teachers, Albion (2001) found that self-efficacy was the most significant factor in predicting technology use. Pre-service and in-service teachers who possess high self-efficacy in regard to technology are more apt to use technology in the classroom because they are more confident in their ability. In their study investigating teachers' use of technology, Holden and Rada (2011) found that self-efficacy directly influenced individuals' ease of use and usability of technology.
Need for Technology Integration
With the adoption of the National Education Technology Plan (NETP), providing access to technology is no longer sufficient; the NETP stresses that schools are expected to ensure "all students understand how to use technologies as a tool to engage in creative, productive, lifelong learning" (p. 16 Herold, 2016). A key element in the plan is the need to move from passive to active use of technology. Often referred to as the "digital use and divide," a gap exists between learners who are using technology in active, creative ways to support their learning and those who predominantly use technology for passive content consumption.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Teachers should act an essential role as a facilitator
in the process of teaching and learning. Instance,
teachers conduct teaching and learning process as a
small group in the classroom (Cooperative Method).
This has been proved by many studies that cooperative
learning can increase the effective achievement of
consistent domain. Besides that, oriented teaching and
learning process diversity in media technology will make
the sessions more interesting and understandable.
Kumar et al. (2008), there are studies and the
existence of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).
It is a parsimonious, theoretically and empirically
justified model aimed at explaining the usage of
information systems. It states that behavior is driven by
the intention to use a system, which in turn is driven by
the users’ attitude and perceptions of normative
influences. According to the model, a teachers’ decision
to use a technology is linked with the technology
usefulness, ease of use, computer self-efficacy, job
relevance, compatibility and subjective norm. The
successful teachers need to be knowledgeable and
skilled in the application of new technologies in order
to extend teaching effectiveness besides enhancing
positive attitudes
Romiszowski (1992) justify that Educational
Technology Media can be categorized from the most
common equipment used in schools which is the
textbook and the blackboard, to modern media such as
high-tech computer equipment, LCD, Internet and digital
cameras.
The role of multimedia: Multimedia is the integration
between the various media such as text, numeric,
graphics, images, video, animation and sound in a
digital environment, as well as has the ability to enable
users to achieve interactivity requirements without the
sequence. Multimedia is a combination of two or more
types of media to create a sequence of programs that are
effective in conveying an idea, with the assistance of
both sound and visual. Hesson (2006) finds computer
simulators are used in education to help students
understand and comprehend specific topics. Topically,
multimedia production developed and controlled by a
computer.
Multimedia is the use of computers to present and
integrate text, audio, video with links and tools that
allow users to navigate, interaction, creation and
communication. It is well known that teaching can be
vastly amplified when it is not done purely
theoretically, but visually and interactively instead. This
way, students can obtain a deeper understanding of the
subject being taught (Dimitrios et al., 2005).
Teaching and learning: Learning is an activity that
leads to change and control of what is taught, while
teaching is a practical activity or action, be
intentional and conscious to assist learning.
Based on Gibbons and Fairweather (1998) and
Kumar et al. (2008) literature, it could be easily
deduced that teachers use computer for teaching and
learning. They use the computer to impart knowledge
in the classroom, create variety, conduct activities,
easily deliver their wordy explanations and instill
interest in the lesson they are teaching.
The computer gives teachers the confidence in the
classroom as they are not looked down by their students
as obsolete and old fashioned. They prove to the
contemporary generation that they too know modern
technology and are not left behind time. (George et al.,
2000; Kumar et al., 2008) According to (Al-Shaibani
and Daoud, 2011), emphasized that teachers must use
thinking map for activities or active organized thinking
and teachers should incorporate into their lessons to
make good thinking skills lessons. Challenges and use
new strategies in order to gain better understanding of the
topic.
Furthermore, infusion gave the students the ability
to infer differently and develop abilities in analysis,
synthesis and imagination. Teaching and learning
process is event that occurred in the classroom with the
following characteristics; (a) the purpose, content and
approach are planned in advance by the teacher (b)
learning-oriented guidance of a teacher, (c) teaching in
a large or small groups according to levels of schooling
and (d) assessment in the form of test or examination to
assess the effects of teaching and learning outcomes.
Literature (Hameed, 2011) shows that some people
believe a revolution is taking place on education, in the
way people learn and the way instruction is given.
Internet, multimedia and mobility usage in education
process nowadays is expanding rapidly in teaching
and learning.
Educational development of Jawi: Yaakob (2007)
found a decrease of education due to the weakness in
Jawi writing skills, which no one from form five
students have good control of the Jawi script. Only 56%
of the students can write Jawi at a moderate level and
11.1% have not acquired the ox. While, 87% of students
not using the Jawi script when writing notes and overall
education of students not using the Jawi script during the
examination.

results of subjects including Islamic Education
and Jawi Test
Among the factors that influence the acceptance
and used of Jawi is caused by internal factors students
themselves. The findings showed that 95% of students
did not deem important of Jawi through it is not
assessed in the examination. Accordingly, the Ministry
of Education are suggested that assessment of the Jawi
script need included in the examination as Lower
Secondary Assessment Examination Certificate (PMR)
and Certificate of Malaysia Education (SPM).
Besides that, lack of proficiency among students
because of Jawi script is not used widely in the
community and not equally of concern compared to the
Latin alphabet. In addition, the Jawi script does not have a
uniform spelling system and not according to syllables.
Teaching and learning using the technology media:
The learning process begins with information obtained
from the stimulus received by the senses, perception
formation process by means of information and is
stored as an experienced that can be applied.
Application of media in teaching will be to diversify the
skills of intelligence, which is absolutely necessary to
acquire a skill.
Applications of educational technology media in
teaching and learning help teachers communicate
information of interest to students as well. Sampath
(1984) claims, people learn through the senses and each
sense has a different learning percent. According to him,
people learn through the sense of taste 1%, 1.5% sense of
touch, sense of smell is 3.5%, 11% and hearing through
the senses of sight by 83%. The involvement of various
visual media as a stimulus to the learning process is the
first choice of many educators (Fig. 1-5).
The use of media in teaching will be able to
overcome the problem of students with different
learning styles. Coombs (1999) states learning occur a
few minutes when teachers only speaking in front of the
classroom and students sit passively (one-way learning).

He said the lines of communication easily failure and this
situation leads to a frustrating learning process. Media
use is also associated with the statement Abeles et al.

(1994), which said that the learning process should be
consistent with physical and mental development of
students. Fun learning sessions, using a form of learning
activities spontaneously, should involve the student's
physical and mental factors.
The touched in the various aspects of multimedia
technology, accordance observations in student motivation
might help students. Multimedia technology make
learning subject important and helps increase students’
interest and understand clearly the scope of the various
subjects in study. Clearly, the lesson has to do with
learning, where teaching is nothing without learning.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Observation results of test in Jawi Education and
questionnaire is an instrument that is implemented. The
purpose of the questionnaire is to obtain the student's
background, especially relation to an interest in learning
Jawi Education and learning pattern of the past.
Meanwhile, questionnaire based on previous and after
going through the learning process aided media
educational, Jawi Education will be examined. The
results of students from these questions will be used to
study the effectiveness of teaching and learning
education aided media technology, thus making
comparisons between the ordinary teaching lessons and
using educational technology media method.

DISCUSSION
By using the Media Education Technology such as
computers, multimedia software is programmed so that
students can be actively involved and able to choose a
variety of exercises and questions provided in the
software. Computers also help in creating a strong
relationship between teachers and students, through the
tendency of learning through computers. With this, the
system of effective teaching and learning can be
implemented, as is proven by the test results of 2010
and 2011.
Media usage in teaching and learning intend to
motivate students, coupled with attractive multimedia
use, causing the students’ convenience and enjoyment
in learning. Students will also be more inclined to learn
a new one topic in their learning. The technology aided
learning media can provide an experience that is
different from conventional learning.
The use of Educational Technology Media also
facilitates student and teacher identify problems that
often arise during the teaching and learning. Under the
student centered strategy, the students play an active
role in the learning process. According to this strategy,
the students participate actively in their learning
activities. The approach to computer-aided teaching and
learning such as.
Drills: Drills training to provide experience and skills
related topics in Jawi education. Students will enjoy
answering questions prepared and able to respond at the
same time. Normally, the training concerning the use of
computer, to evaluate the level of students’ ability.
Simulation: Simulation is a real experience provided
by the teacher, with the use of computer-based media
technology on an object. This simulation aims to provide
facilities and attract students in their learning process.
Tutorial: Tutorial is a space that considered by the
teacher in providing an effective learning experience on
Jawi education. Students able to communicate and
interacting with teachers (bilateral discussions). The
content will be presented in accordance with step by
step, from simple to more challenging levels of ability.
This progressing helps teacher to measure students'
understanding and give instructions to students based
on responses given.

CONCLUSION
Computer usage can stimulate effective learning
and improve the performance of subjects Jawi,
enhancing the high level of interactivity among
students. Results of analysis carried out showed that
there was increased student performance after the use of
educational technology media. Of the 52 respondents,
about 33 people to obtain higher marks in the test year
2011 compared to a total of 22 students who passed in
2010 using ordinary methods.
Importance of computers as teaching aids need not
be overstated. Ordinary teaching method is no longer
relevant today. The teacher's role is no longer as a
presenter of information but has become a facilitator for
learning and teaching process. The use of computers is
not intended to replace the role of the teacher, but
actually intended to create an atmosphere of teaching
and learning more fun and interesting. Computer usage
to facilitate teaching and learning process, enrich
teaching techniques and help teachers in teaching and
learning objectives effectively if used in a systematic
and continuous.
