Teaching and learning in an online class, limiting the learning process of practical classes or hands-on experience for aquaculture, specifically in canvas system topics. In aquaculture subject, practical classes are an essential thing. Students do the fieldwork and at the same time, individual skills tested to measures the level of understanding in specific topics. In this regard, the development of teaching aids kit Mini Model (Canvas system) is required to help teachers enhance students’ understanding and skills related to aquaculture subjects. The development of teaching aid is a critical phase to make sure the teaching aids develop in accordance with the objectives and work well. Therefore, it is important to have an expert perception of the development and usability of the teaching aid kit Canvas system mini model. In this study, nine experts were chosen from the Faculty Technical and Vocational, Sultan Idris Education University based on their experience developing teaching aid kits and pedagogy. A set of questionnaires was distributed to the experts to obtain the required information and data. All data obtained were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science SPSS version 24' to obtain the frequency, percentage and mean through descriptive analysis. The study’s findings show that the development and usability of the teaching Aids Kit Mini Model (Canvas system) is acceptable and can be used as a teaching aid for aquaculture subject.","PeriodicalId":404002,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Vocational Education and Humanities","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132174405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, it is encouraged that all parties globally, the government, the industry and education to implement a holistic and creative ESD approach to realize the goals of SDGs. ESD issues are also discussed in fashion education because the fashion industry is a contributor to environmental pollution. Thus, the values of sustainability in fashion education should be applied to students at an early stage so that students can understand different perspectives when faced with sustainability issues. In addition, students' attitudes and behaviour towards environmental issues are also at a moderate level. Students have been influenced by various influences such as mass media, ideologies and other social aspects. Thus, the objective of this study was to provide more information on issues in sustainable fashion education. The researcher also tried to channel some initiatives and the mechanism that can be used for the ESD practice approach in fashion education. The methodology used in this article was through the information review of previous studies. The information collected consists of articles of study and existing reports. The general and specific keywords were also used in the information search. Besides, the researcher also modified previous research results and combined various previous research findings to identify issues and trends of ESD in fashion education. From the findings, several parties play important roles in practising ESD in fashion education. The parties involved are educators, educational institutions, the government and the industry. In addition, various approaches can be done to promote ESD practices to students such as the application of mixed technology, the use of conceptual models in the fashion curriculum, the development of sustainable fashion courses, innovation in curriculum and pedagogy as well as collaborative activities between institutions and the industry. The findings also showed that several theories and models of previous studies discussed the significant relationship of factors influencing ESD practices. Those theories are Theory of Planned Behavior-TPB, Norm Activation Theory - NAT, Predictors of Environmental Behavior: PEB model and KAP Model.","PeriodicalId":404002,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Vocational Education and Humanities","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121143819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to analyse the engineering students‟ psychomotor skill development based on psychomotor programme outcome (PO) attainment during their course of study and to determine the important suggestions on improvement in the learning and teaching processes in the programme based on the respondents‟ feedback. A quantitative research design was adopted using a questionnaire survey to record the students‟ opinions on skill development and PO attainment, classified under the psychomotor domain in an undergraduate civil engineering programme in Malaysia. Out of the 327 chosen students, who consisted of final year students enrolling in open ended laboratory (OEL) and final year project (FYP) courses, approximately 32% of them responded to the survey. It was agreed by most of the students that psychomotor skill assisted the development of their self-confidence and proficiency, which consisted of complex skill sets and movement. The students also agreed that they have attained the PO through usage of laboratory apparatus and data collection. As they agreed that their psychomotor PO attainment was influenced by the condition of the equipment in the laboratories, they proposed that the programme should increase the number of equipment and enhance the laboratory facilities by implementing new and up-to-date technologies relevant to the programme. It was shown from a direct PO measurement from the myCOPO system that the students attained the psychomotor skill required by the programme. This study contributes to the improvement in the engineering curriculum development and assists the Institute of Higher Learning (IHL) in fulfilling the requirements by the Board of Engineers Malaysia, which are related to psychomotor skill development. As it captures an important aspect of psychomotor skill acquired by civil engineering students, it would be a positive approach for IHL to apply a more practice-based learning curriculum to prepare them for future careers in design consultant office, contractor site operations, and other construction-related work environment.","PeriodicalId":404002,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Vocational Education and Humanities","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130066188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Respondents and significant others were interviewed using a 3-point Likert scale. On the level of functional capacity, researcher found out that the elderly are independent in performing BADL and need assistance in performing of IADL such as ability to use phone, shopping, performing heavy domestic works, laundry, taking medication in correct time and handling of finances. Age has a negative significant relationship with their ability to perform both the BADL and IADL and there is a difference between gender and source of income and their ability to perform IADL.
