    Kajian ini dibuat untuk melihat kesan faktor demografi terhadap keberkesanan sistem e-pembelajaran. Pelajar-pelajar daripada institusi pengajian tinggi dipilih secara rambang untuk tujuan menilai keberkesanan sistem pembelajaran dalam proses pembelajaran pelajar. Seterusnya data diproses dengan menggunakan perisian SPSS. Hasil daripada data yang di perolehi menunjukkan bahawa faktor umur, program pengajian dan juga tahap pendidikan pelajar mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan dengan keberkesanan sistem pembelajaran secara elektronik. Oleh itu, dicadangkan agar kajian semula terhadap kaedah penyampaian dalam proses pembelajaran dilakukan sebelum memulakan pengajaran dengan mengambil kira tentang latar belakang pelajar. Perbandingan harus dilakukan antara keberkesanan secara elektronik dan kaedah pembelajaran secara tradisional melalui penilaian pelajar selepas sesi kuliah. Pemeriksaan yang rapi dan teliti harus dilakukan. Pusat pengajian tinggi juga disarankan agar melihat sejauh mana kebolehan pelajar menggunakan teknologi e-pembelajaran sebelum memperkenalkan sistem teknologi pembelajaran dalam talian (online) bagi melihat kemampuan dan kebolehan mereka dalam menggunakan sistem e-pembelajaran dalam proses pembelajaran mereka.

    Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti kaedah pengajaran yang digunakan oleh guru dan strategi komunikasi yang digunakan oleh pelajar dalam aspek penulisan Bahasa Arab bagi subjek Al-Lughah Al- ‘Arabiah Al-Mu’asirah (LAM). Seramai 20 orang guru yang mengajar subjek LAM di beberapa buah Sekolah Agama Bantuan Kerajaan (SABK) dipilih sebagai sampel kajian. Borang soal selidik dan temu dan temu bual digunakan sebagai instrumen bagi mendapat data penggunaan kaedah pengajaran dan jenis strategi komunikasi. Data dianalisis berasaskan deskriptif asas dengan melihat kepada kekerapan dan peratusan penggunaan kaedah pengajaran dan strategi komunikasi sahaja. Pengkelasan strategi komunikasi mengguna pakai Strategi Komunikasi Dornyei & Scott (1997). Kajian mendapati bahawa sebahagian besar responden cenderung menggunakan kaedah pengajaran berbentuk ajuk hafal, syarahan, aktiviti dan permainan, induktif, pembentangan, komunikatif, terjemahan dan deduktif. Manakala, kaedah langsung kurang digunakan dalam aktiviti pengajaran LAM. Guru turut berpendapat bahawa kebanyakan pelajar sering menggunakan strategi terjemahan literal, pengulangan, rayuan kerjasama, penghampiran, penghafalan dan penghuraian semasa menulis dalam Bahasa Arab. Sementara strategi penciptaan perkataan baru, peninggalan mesej dan penukaran kod bahasa kurang digunakan dalam penulisan. Dapatan kajian ini secara tidak langsung memberi implikasi terhadap kaedah pengajaran dan pembelajaran Bahasa Arab dalam usaha meningkatkan penguasaan komunikasi bahasa asing dalam kalangan pelajar.

    Studies on political speeches are not new and cover various aspects including that of language use. Political speeches are a medium through which ideas and ideologies are communicated through language use for the sake of the listener’s understanding. The success of delivering a political speech depends on the use of persuasive arguments. This study presents an analysis of the use of speech acts as an effective argumentative strategy. Its two objectives are to compare the use of speech acts in two different situations, and to explain the results obtained from the comparison. The data of the study comprise two keynote addresses by Zahid Hamidi. The first is the keynote at the 2017 UMNO General Assembly before the 14th General Election (PRU14) in 2017, and the second is his keynote address at the 2018 UMNO General Assembly, after the party's defeat in PRU14. The analysis used qualitative method, adopting Bach and Harnish's (1979) theoretical framework. Overall findings show Zahid Hamidi used constatives, directives, commissives and acknowledgements in his speeches. Constatives and directives were specifically utilised to influence and convince the audience of his arguments more in his 2017 speech than in the 2018 one. After PRU14, Zahid used more of commissives and acknowledgments. Commissives stand at 10.3% in the 2018 speech, compared to 4.5% in 2017 and acknowledgements is at 9.3% in 2018 compared to 5.4% in 2017. The change in use of the speech acts across the two years suggests that Zahid has had to adjust his use of words and language to fit in with the 2018 socio-political scenario. The results show that socio-political scenario clearly has an impact on the type of speech acts used in politicians’ speeches. The findings also send a message to politicians that their speeches should contain speech acts appropriate to the current scenario, which can be understood clearly by their supporters.

    This paper aims to examine the potentials of the multi-purpose touch screen technology application which utilizes a sound articulation point software called "TALKING PHONICS FOR AUTISM"as an alternative method of teaching phonics to autistic children. "TALKING PHONICS FOR AUTISM"is developed via a collaborative effort between the Centre of International Languages (CIL) and the School of Human Development and techno Communication (iKOM), University Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP). The reading skills of autism children are developed intofive (5) levels ofMalay reading comprehension skills. The first level consists of open syllables - vowels and consonants. The following consecutivethree levels comprised of closed syllables. The fourth level introduces vocal sequence while the fifth level constitutes of Malay language loans. The Malay-language dialect phonological theory by Tajul Aripin Kassin (2000) which is based on Clements & Keysher's (1980) Generative Booking Generic Fonology Model (CV) forms the theorectical framework of this paper.

    Malaysia’s Movement Control Order (MCO) has been enforced twice, on 18 March 2020 and 13 January 2021 since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, both through speeches delivered on live telecast by its Prime Minister. While the speeches were aimed at informing the people of the order, it is anticipated that they contain interdiscursivity, that is a combination of discourse genres and styles, which carries out multiple functions in delivering messages pertaining to the order, based on political hegemony, ideology and culture. Prior to the announcement, the public is rife with questions and perceptions of what the MCO may involve. The speeches conveyed the Prime Minister’s and the government’s intentions such as delivering information, providing instruction, calming the people, and the like. Content analysis was conducted on two MCO speeches using qualitative approaches. The study is aimed at identifying functions and types of discourse, as well as deciphering techniques used to achieve the functions, using Idris Aman’s (2006) discourse functions analysis framework. The study proposes interdiscursivity elements in the MCO texts, realised through five main functions of informing, providing understanding, presenting/defending opinions, expressing (one’s views) and issuing orders. The study also found the use of three techniques additional to the existing framework, that of empathy, advice and appreciation. The study indicates that interdiscursivity is used in a text that contains a main objective for multiple purposes, which are determined by audience, environmental and situational factors. The presence of interdiscursivity also reflects the speaker’s communication strategy, balancing between exhibiting sensitivity to public concerns and issuing the order.
