Shallow reflection seismics at the Pekan Quaternary deposits UMAR HAMZAH, ABDUL RAHIM SAMSUDIN AND ABDUL GHANI RAFEK J abatan Geologi Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Bangi, Selangor D.E. Abstract: The applicability of the seismic reflection method for exploration at shallow depth « 100 m) has been investigated atPekan Quaternary deposits. A system comprising of a high­ frequency response seismograph and a hammer source was used. The reflection data provides information on the internal structure of the Quaternary deposits. The resolution and accuracy of the reflection data demonstrate the potential of this method in engineering geophysical investigations.

  • Knowledge, Attitude and Practice on Antenatal Care Among Orang Asli Women in Jempol, Negeri Sembilan
    Malaysian Journal of Public Health Medicine 2011, Vol. 11(2): 13-21 ORIGINAL ARTICLE KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE AND PRACTICE ON ANTENATAL CARE AMONG ORANG ASLI WOMEN IN JEMPOL, NEGERI SEMBILAN Rosliza AM 1, Muhamad HJ 1 1Faculty of Medicine & Health Sciences, Universiti Putra Malaysia. ABSTRACT The maternal health status of Orang Asli women in Malaysia was noted to be lower as compared to other groups of population in the country. This study aimed to determine the level of knowledge, attitude and practice on antenatal care, which is a vital component of maternal health among the Orang Asli women in three Orang Asli villages in Jempol District, Negeri Sembilan. All women aged between 15 to 49 years old who had at least one antenatal experience were interviewed using a structured, pretested questionnaire. A total of 104 women were interviewed. Among them, 92.3% admitted attending antenatal clinic during their previous pregnancies while only 48.1% came early for their first check-up. About 70% of the women had history of home delivery and 44.2% had experienced at least one high risk pregnancy before. Study revealed that 44.2% (95% CI, 34.7 – 53.7%) of the women have good knowledge regarding antenatal care while 53.8% (95% CI, 44.3 – 63.1%) of them noted to have positive attitude regarding antenatal care. However, result showed that the level of knowledge regarding the importance of early antenatal care, screening test and complications of diabetes and hypertension in pregnancy were poor. In conclusion, the rate of home delivery and late antenatal booking was still high among the Orang Asli women and it is significantly associated with their attitude regarding antenatal care.

Background of ProBE 2014 The Provider-Based Evaluation (ProBE), continuation of the formerly known Malaysia Government Portals and Websites Assessment (MGPWA), has been concluded for the assessment year of 2014. As mandated by the Government of Malaysia via the Flagship Coordination Committee (FCC) Meeting chaired by the Secretary General of Malaysia, MDeC hereby announces the result of ProBE 2014. Effective Date and Implementation The assessment year for ProBE 2014 has commenced on the 1 st of July 2014 following the announcement of the criteria and its methodology to all agencies. A total of 1086 Government websites from twenty four Ministries and thirteen states were identified for assessment. Methodology In line with the continuous and heightened effort from the Government to enhance delivery of services to the citizens, significant advancements were introduced to the criteria and methodology of assessment for ProBE 2014 exercise. The year 2014 spearheaded the introduction and implementation of self-assessment methodology where all agencies were required to assess their own websites based on the prescribed ProBE criteria. The key features of the methodology are as follows: ● Agencies are required to conduct assessment of their respective websites throughout the year; ● Parents agencies played a vital role in monitoring as well as approving their agencies to be able to conduct the self-assessment; ● During the self-assessment process, each agency is required to record

  • Relationship Between Higher Order Thinking and Metacognitive Skills with Hands-On Teaching Among Primary School Science Teachers in Jempol District
    ASM Sc. J., 13, 2020 https://doi.org/10.32802/asmscj.2020.sm26(2.19) Relationship Between Higher Order Thinking and Metacognitive Skills with Hands-On Teaching Among Primary School Science Teachers in Jempol District Punnithann Subramaniam, Tajularipin Sulaiman* and Nurzatulshima Kamarudin Faculty of Educational Studies, Universiti Putra Malaysia Higher order thinking skills and metacognitive skills are essential in generating intellectual competitiveness to meet the challenges of acquiring today’s knowledge. This study examines the relationship between higher order thinking skills (HOTS) and metacognitive skills with hands-on teaching in Science among primary school Science teachers in the Jempol district. The purpose of this study is to look at the relationship between the level of higher order thinking skills (HOTS) and metacognitive skills with hands-on teaching in Science among primary school Science teachers in the Jempol district. This study is designed using descriptive and correlation methods. This study uses the quantitative approach by using questionnaire. The findings of the quantitative analysis show that the level of thinking skills is high (M = 4.36, S.D. = 0.577) among Science teachers in the Jempol district. In addition, the findings show that the metacognitive level was high (M = 4.39, S.D. = 0.579) among Science teachers in the Jempol district. Next, the level of hands-on teaching in Science is high (M = 4.37, S.D. = 0.543) among Science teachers in this district. The findings show that there is a significant relationship between higher order thinking skills (HOTS) and hands-on teaching in Science (r = 0.739, n = 94, p < 0.01).

The number of cases recorded is always fluctuating. The aim of the study is to identify the high-risk area for the occurrence of dengue disease. Spatial-temporal model was used by measuring three characteristics which are frequency, duration and intensity to define the severity and magnitude of outbreak transmission. This study examined a total of 386 registered dengue fever cases, geo-coded by address in Jempol district between January 2011 and December 2015. Even though case notification figures are subjected to bias, this information is available in the health services. It may lead to crucial conclusion, recommendations, and hypotheses. Public health officials can utilize the temporal risk indices to describe dengue relatively than relying on the traditional case incident figures. 128 Serangga Keywords: spatial pattern distribution, dengue fever, sub-urban, GIS tools, Jempol, Malaysia.

In 2014, Malaysia reported 108 698 cases of dengue fever with 215 deaths which increased tremendously compared to 49 335 cases with 112 deaths in 2008 and 30 110 cases with 69 deaths in 2009. This study aimed to identify the best method in determining dengue outbreak threshold for Negeri Sembilan as it can help to send uniform messages to inform the general public and make the outbreak analysis comparable within and between countries. Methods Using retrospective Negeri Sembilan country dataset from 1st epid week of 2011 till the 52nd epid week of 2016. The data were split into two periods: 1) a 3-year historic period (2011–2013), used to calibrate and parameterise the model, and a 1-year evaluation period (2014); 2) a 2-year historic period (2014–2016), used to calibrate and parameterise the model, and a 1-year evaluation period (2016), used to test the model.
