Students' Perceptions Concerning the Site Visit in History, ICSS, Malaysia
Uluslar arası Sosyal Bilimler Eğitimi Dergisi - USBED• International Social Science Education of Journal – ISSEJ Yaz/Summer Volume I Issue I Article II Students’ Perceptions Concerning the Site Visit in History, ICSS, Malaysia MohamadJohdiSalleh * Abstract The study is essentially an exploratory survey, which sets out to obtain some concrete information on the students’ perception concerning the site visit in the teaching and learning of history, Integrated Curriculum for Secondary Schools (ICSS) Malaysia. The researcher employed the ‘convenience sampling’ method and selected two states in Malaysia, namely Perak and Terengganu, involving four hundred students from each state. The data was collected through distribution of questionnaire and interviews. The findings of the questionnaire reveal that the score in Perakwas higher than Terengganu,boys score higher than girls, Form Four score the highest among the level of education, and, interestingly, both science and religious have the same number of responses in the type of schools categories. As an addition, it was discovered from interviews that site visits allow for student-centred learning, giving students the chance to improve their own skills in using concrete evidence and developing essential historical skills. At the same time it enables students to develop truly cross-curricular skills of various subjects including mathematics and science. It is hoped that the study would raise concern, awareness and benefit to all involved in the teaching and learning of history in the ICSS Malaysia, and school students across the world in this era of globalization. Keywords: students’ perceptions – site visits - advantages Introduction The history fieldwork was introduced into the Integrated Curriculum for Secondary Schools (ICSS) Malaysia in 1988 and reviewed in 2000 and 2008. -

The Spatial Configuration of Private Investments by Economic Actors in Perak
The spatial configuration of private investments by economic actors in Perak A consideration of centricity of the regional urban system of Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia) Luka Raaijmakers (6314554) Under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven Faculty of Geosciences Department of Human Geography and Planning Master’s degree in Economic Geography Specialisation in Regional Development & Policy November 2019 Page | 2 Acknowledgements This thesis is part of the joint research project on regional urban dynamics in Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia). The project is a collaboration between Utrecht University (The Netherlands) and Think City Sdn Bhd (Malaysia), under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven and Matt Benson. I would like to thank dr Leo van Grunsven for his advice related to scientific subjects and his efforts to make us feel at home in Malaysia. Also, I would like to thank Matt Benson and Joel Goh and the other colleagues of Think City for the assistance in conducting research in – for me – uncharted territory. I would like to address other words of thanks to the Malaysian Investment Development Authority, Institut Darul Ridzuan and all other political bodies that have proven to be valuable as well as economic actors for their honesty and openness with regard to doing business in Malaysia/Perak. Finally, the fun part of writing a master’s thesis in Malaysia, apart from obviously living abroad on a vibrant island, was the part of doing research. This required a little creativity, some resilience and even more perseverance. This could not have been done without the other student members of the research team that took part in the collective effort of unravelling the urban system of Perak by using the knowledge we have gained in our years as academics. -

ASWOOD ABSTRACT This study involves a comprehensive analysis of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K concentration from irrigation water samples. Water samples were obtained, and the physical parameters were examined. Subsequently, the corresponding radiological risks to human health were estimated. The concentration levels of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K in water samples amounted to 1.51 ± 0.30, 0.17 ± 0.09, and 7.67 ± 3.07 Bq L-1, respectively, which were within the concentration levels reported in the literature from Malaysia and other countries worldwide. Based on the food intake rate by MoH and UNSCEAR, the annual ingestion effective dose(ID) and the cancer risks corresponding to radionuclide intake in irrigation were below the recommended maximum values. Meanwhile, the average hazard indices and annual outdoor effective dose (ED) amounted to 0.01 and 1.39 mSv year-1, respectively. It was inferred from the findings of this study that the water used as the sample does not have any significant radiological impacts to human body and is safe to be used as irrigation in the related area.

Clarification of Hermann H. Kunstler's Botanical Collecting Localities In
Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 65(2): 149–156. 2013 149 Clarification of Hermann H. Kunstler’s botanical collecting localities in Peninsular Malaysia Ruth Kiew Forest Research Institute Malaysia, 52109 Kepong, Selangor, Malaysia [email protected] ABSTRACT. Kunstler’s collections made in Gopeng, Perak, in 1880 had labels wrongly printed with ‘Larut’; herbarium specimens from Ulu Bubong, Ulu Kerling, and Sungai Kul were wrongly localised as from Perak instead of from Selangor; ‘G.M.’ on Kunstler’s labels from his 4th expedition to Gopeng in 1885, which included plants restricted to limestone, refers to Gunung Mesah south of Gopeng (not Gunung Megua or Gunung Malacca, names that do not exist, nor does it refer to Gunung Bujang Melaka, a granite peak south of Kampar, Perak); lastly ‘near G.M.’ probably refers to Gunung Tempurong, Perak. Paraboea capitata Ridl. and P. vulpina Ridl., both strict calcicoles, were not collected from G. Bujang Melaka as was reported by Ridley. Keywords. Gopeng, Gunung Bujang Melaka, Gunung Mesah, Gunung Tempurong, limestone, Perak, Selangor, Ulu Bubong Introduction The first Flora to deal with Peninsular Malaysia was J.D. Hooker’s seven volumeFlora of British India (1872–1897) based on herbarium collections at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, U.K., and Calcutta, India. However, owing to a paucity of herbarium specimens at that time the results are very incomplete. George King, Director of the Royal Botanic Garden Calcutta, therefore organised systematic botanical collecting in Peninsular Malaysia in order to enable him to undertake the first detailed and comprehensive Materials for a Flora of the Malay Peninsula (begun in 1889 and completed together with other botanists in 1936). -

The Importance and Significance of Heritage Conservation of the Ex-Tin Mining Landscape in Perak, Malaysia, the Abode of Grace
The Asian Conference on Asian Studies 2013 Official Conference Proceedings Osaka, Japan The Importance and Significance of Heritage Conservation of the ex-tin Mining Landscape in Perak, Malaysia, the Abode of Grace Suriati Ahmad, David Jones Deakin University, Australia 0134 The Asian Conference on Asian Studies 2013 Official Conference Proceedings 2013 Abstract The tin mining industry in Malaysia is one of its major exports and has been classified as its oldest industrial heritage. According to the Malaysian Department of Statistics, the mining sector continues to be significant, supplying basic raw materials to the construction and manufacturing sectors enabling Malaysia's economic growth. Until the late 1970s, Malaysia was the world's premier producer of tin, supplying some 40 per cent of the world's tin. Peninsular Malaysia contributes the highest percentage of tin mining production and the biggest mining area is situated in Perak, comprising Taiping of Larut district, Kinta Valley district (Ipoh, Gopeng, Kampar, Batu Gajah, Tronoh), Pahang and Selangor, which includes the capital of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur. However, due to a global recession in 1929 to 1932 a severe decline occurred in this industry. This decline affected the price of tin that fell sharply due to a lack of demand from European markets and caused the closure of many tin mines. In 2011, the Malaysian Chambers of Mines indicated that in Peninsular Malaysia, there is more than 113,700 ha of ex-tin mining areas and the majority of these areas are former tin mining sites. With the current rapid development and modernization of Perak state, the insistence on the human needs has caused changes to its moribund tin mining landscapes.
