Control Order

T The Movement Control Order (MCO) was declared by the Malaysian Government on 18 March 2020 to avoid the transmission of the Covid -19 infection.  The MCO was continued until phase four and then commenced to the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) which was less restrictive starting 4 May 2020.  For the first two months of the implementation of the MCO, all business premises, places of worship and educational institutions were closed totally to the public. schools were reopened in stages during the CMCO following the advice of the Ministry of Health (MOH).  The objective of this research is to do an analysis of the maslahah element which was applied in the management of the reopening of schools according to the Sunnah Nabawiyyah perspective.  This research was conducted using the qualitative method which involved literature and field research.  By analyzing the primary documents released by the Ministry of Education (MOE) and the feedback posted by the mass media, the research found that the maslahah element such as maslahah daruriyyah, dunyawiyah and khassah are already implemented by the MOE in the preparation of School Reopening Management Guidelines.  This element was aimed specifically in order to safeguard the health and the well-being of the students and the teachers.  Even though education is important and mandatory for all, yet the constraints faced by the people concerned are equally important. Thus, the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is for the sake of making sure the well-being of school community is assured from the disease. Therefore, the guidelines of school reopening are in line with the Islamic approach based on the discussion of maqasid al-syari'ah which is to realize maslahah for human beings and avoiding any bad circumstances.

Stress Levels

The present study aimed to identify the occupational stress level of occupational education female and male teachers. It also aimed to identify whether there is any difference between the respondents’ occupational stress levels which can be attributed to their (gender, experience or school stage). The study’s population consists from all the all the occupational education female and male teachers who work at the public schools affiliated with the first and second directorates of education in Irbid (i.e. 320 teachers). As for the sample, it consists from 100 female and male teachers. Those teachers were selected through using the random stratified sampling method. Those teachers were selected from the public schools affiliated with the first and second directorates of education in Irbid. The researchers chose a descriptive survey research design. They developed an instrument (i.e. a questionnaire) for measuring the occupational stress level of teachers. It was found that the occupational stress level of the occupational education female and male teachers is high. It was found that there is a statistically significant difference between the respondents’ occupational stress levels which can be attributed to gender. The latter difference is for the favor of males.  It was found that there is a statistically significant difference between the respondents’ occupational stress levels which can be attributed to experience. The latter difference is for the favor of the ones who possess moderate experience. It was found that there is a statistically significant difference between the respondents’ occupational stress levels which can be attributed to the school stage. The latter difference is for the favor of the lower primary teachers. In the light of the aforementioned results, the researchers recommend exerting effort to reduce the occupational stress level of occupational education female and male teachers. Such efforts include creating convenient psychological and occupational environments. The researchers also recommend providing the lower primary teachers with attention by the Ministry of Education in Jordan. That can be done through providing those teachers with training & development programs. That can be also done through raising their socio-economic levels and providing them with financial & moral incentives & rewards.

In 2016, the World Health Organization, through the Global Cooperation on Assistive Technology Initiative, issued the Priority Assistive Products List which is meant to be a guide to member states of the 50 assistive products needed for a basic health care and/or social welfare system; it is also a model from which nations can develop their national priority assistive products lists. The aim of this opinion paper is to share my views about the Priority Assistive Products List on the grounds that it makes no distinct mention of sexual assistive devices, yet research has indicated that sexuality is an area of great concern for persons with disabilities. In any case, sexuality forms a core part of being human, and it impacts on both the physical and mental well-being of all human beings. I conclude in part that, in its present format, the list perpetuates the myth that persons with disabilities are asexual beings who are innocent of sexual thoughts, feelings and experiences. The list also propagates the stereotype that sexuality is a sacred, private, bedroom matter that should be kept out of the public domain, to the detriment of the health and well-being of persons with disabilities.

Malaysia implemented its first Movement Control Order (MCO) during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic to slow the transmission of the virus. This study aimed to explore the public perception of the MCO implementation and people’s experiences during this period. The study employed qualitative explorative in-depth interviews conducted with 23 Malaysian adults from various demographic backgrounds. Thematic analysis was performed using NVivo 12. Three main themes were identified: a period of information surge, heterogeneous emotional response, and attempts to adapt. During the MCO, the participants obtained information from multiple platforms. They suggested the need for clear and repeated instructions to avoid confusion and misinformation. They also acknowledged the importance of the MCO in breaking the chain of transmission and safeguarding high-risk groups; however, they also expressed that stricter enforcement from the authorities was warranted. The changes in the participants’ work–life routines, lack of physical interaction, and uncertainty about their health and the economy due to the MCO negatively impacted their psychological states. Despite these challenges, the participants attempted to adapt to life under the MCO in different ways. The findings imply that during a crisis, the public tends to seek clear and reliable information, experience emotional turmoil, and adapt to changes. The MCO implementation can be improved through an effective communication strategy and efforts to battle misinformation.

Background: Children spend a significant proportion of their day in school, thus pediatric emergencies such as exacerbation of medical conditions, accidental and intentional injuries are likely to occur. An estimate of 10 -25% of injuries occur while the children are at school. It is the legal responsibility of the schools to ensure the safety and well-being of the pupils/students and staff during school hours working towards prevention of accidents and being prepared for immediate solutions when the accidents occur.Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study of 31 registered primary schools in Abakaliki Metropolis. A prepared check list of facilities necessary for emergency care at schools derived from the school health programme evaluation scale was used for the assessment. Data was analyzed using the SPSS statistical package version 8, comparing findings in public schools with the private schools using Chi square. The level of significance was set at p<0.05.Results: A health room was available in 9.7% of schools exclusively private schools.  Nurses, doctors and trained first aiders were found in 6.5%, 9.7% and 32.3% respectively of schools. First aid boxes were available in 80.6% of the schools but only 67.7% of the schools could offer first aid treatment at emergencies. None of the public schools had a school safety patrol or a fire extinguisher in contrast to the private schools.Conclusions: Schools, especially the public schools in Abakaliki metropolis are ill prepared for emergencies.

Muslim children in Kenya attend several educational institutions including Qur’anic schools, Madrasa and secular public schools. Those who attend all the three tracks usually begin their lessons in Qur’anic schools at about 4.00 a.m. and move on to the secular public schools between 7.OO a.m. and 4.00 p.m. From the public secular schools, they again move on to Madrasa classes from 4.30 p.m. to about 6.00 p.m. Many of these children have ended up dropping out of either Madrasa or public secular schools due to the distances between these institutions and the curriculum overload involved. This state of affairs has meant that children are missing out either on Islamic education or on the free secular public education. In the last two decades, Kenya has witnessed a new type of institution that combines Islamic religious subjects and the public secular education curriculum. Though these schools are purely private initiatives requiring some form of fee payment, Muslims in Kenya have fully embraced them. This paper argues that the Islamic integrated schools can be an alternative avenue of education for Muslim children since they combine the best of both the Islamic and secular public systems. It traces Islamic education in the different historical epochs, beginning with the arrival of Islam on the shores of the East African coast to the present, with the establishment of the first integrated school in the mid 1990’s. The success of this type of schooling is attested to by the government’s adoption of integration in its 2012 Education Act, as one of the strategies for increasing access to education for Muslims and other minority groups. The paper draws upon field research carried out between April and July 2012 in Garissa County. The study utilized interviews, observation and document reviews to gather data on the popularity of this type of schooling and the challenges they face in combining two different curricula under one roof.   Abstrak:     Kanak-kanak Islam di Kenya menghadiri beberapa institusi pendidikan termasuk sekolah-sekolah Al-Quran, Madrasah dan sekolah-sekolah awam yang sekular. Mereka yang menghadiri kesemua institusi ini biasanya memulakan pelajaran mereka di sekolah Al-Quran pada kira-kira jam 4.00 pagi dan bergerak ke sekolah sekular awam jam 7.00 pagi hingga 4.00 petang. Dari sekolah sekular awam, mereka berpindah pula ke kelas Madrasah dari 4.30 petang hingga kira-kira 6.00 petang. Ramai di antara kanak-kanak ini akhirnya tercicir daripada Madrasah atau sekolah awam yang sekular disebabkan jauhnya jarak di antara institusi-institusi ini dan kurikulum yang terlalu sarat. Keadaan ini bermakna bahawa kanak-kanak akan kehilangan salah satu pendidikan Islam atau pendidikan awam sekular yang percuma. Dalam dua dekad yang lalu, Kenya telah menyaksikan sejenis institusi baru yang menggabungkan mata pelajaran agama Islam dan kurikulum pendidikan sekular awam. Walaupun sekolah ini adalah inisiatif peribadi yang memerlukan beberapa bentuk pembayaran yuran, umat Islam di Kenya telah menerimanya dengan sepenuh hati. Kertas ini berhujah bahawa sekolah-sekolah bersepadu Islam boleh menjadi satu saluran alternatif pendidikan untuk kanak-kanak Islam kerana mereka menggabungkan yang terbaik daripada kedua-dua sistem Islam dan sekular. Ia menjejaki perkembangan pendidikan Islam di era sejarah yang berbeza, bermula dengan ketibaan Islam di pinggir pantai sebelah Timur Afrika, dengan penubuhan sekolah bersepadu yang pertama di pertengahan tahun 1990an. Kejayaan sekolah jenis ini telah diakui oleh kerajaan yang menggunapakai integrasi dalam Akta Pendidikan 2012, sebagai salah satu strategi bagi meningkatkan akses kepada pendidikan di kalangan umat Islam dan kumpulan minoriti yang lain. Kajian yang berasaskan kajian di lapangan ini telah dijalankan antara April dan Julai 2012 di Garissa County. Kajian ini telah menggunakan temu bual, pemerhatian dan analisis dokumen untuk mengumpul data tentang populariti persekolahan jenis ini dan cabaran-cabaran yang dihadapi dalam menggabungkan dua kurikulum yang berbeza di bawah satu bumbung.

The Malaysian government had announced the Movement Control Order (MCO) to handle the Covid-19 crisis. During MCO, the government has used media channels to spread the information to the public. This research aims to identify the mediating part of both knowledge and awareness between students' attitude and media role during MCO. The findings from 338 respondents analysed using structural equation modelling found that knowledge and awareness mediate between media and students' attitude. This study could guide policymakers to promote a greater understanding of the coronavirus pandemic by using the mass media.

The Relationship

The need for proper housing for the people is an undeniable necessity that should be constantly monitored and researched. Housing opportunities should be made available for every individual, regardless of their income as it can be considered as one of the basic necessities for human life. In Islam, it preaches on a just, ethical, non-discriminatory (Qayyim, 1347 C.E.) and efficient protection of its follower’s well-being, especially in providing social necessities such as housing. The relationship between the function of Maqasid al-Syariah and the public housing would be examined in this paper to determine the effectiveness of the Maqasid al-Syariah in the protection of human well-being. In order to analyze the relationship, a set of questionnaires pertaining on the satisfaction level of the society towards the housing market is distributed to 400 respondents equally divided among the three districts in Melaka. The study also concerns itself with the public housing community, as the focus of this research is aimed at the bottom 40% social group in Melaka. Under the Maqasid al-Syariah, the three domains which are the darurriyat (needs), hajiyyat (necessities), and tahsiniyyat (luxuries) are analysed based on the homeownership, housing condition, financial capacity and physical environment.

Selection Of

In the article, there is a list of contributions from a prominent teacher, historical, and community member of Ukraine – Nikifor Yakovich Grigoriyev. The contribution of the teacher to the process of Ukrainianization of the educational process has been grounded before the hour of his transfer to the seat of the Ministry of Education of the Ukrainian People's Republic in the office of the head of the People's Ministries of V. Golubovich. The manuals and books in the Ukrainian language with the help of educating the people about the formulation of their national consciousness have been analyzed. The assessment of the pedagogical study and methods of the study of the Ukrainian language and history decline was made.It is noted that N. Hryhoriyiv took a course on the revival of education, namely: primary education, native language, customs, and traditions in educational institutions. This period is characterized by the study of the Ukrainian language in primary school, the teaching of the Ukrainian language in teachers'  seminaries, the creation of Ukrainian gymnasiums. The purpose of the article is to highlight the issues of primary education in the creative heritage of the Ukrainian teacher Nikifor Yakovlevich Hryhoriyiv (1883–1953). To write the article, we used the following methods: periodization – to determine in accordance with reasonable criteria for the selection of periods of educational activity of the scientist; method of reconstruction – to reproduce the socio-cultural and socio-political context of educational development; interpretations – for creative rethinking of pedagogical ideas of N. Grigoriev taking into account modern educational and organizational-pedagogical tasks. N. Hryhoriyiv's activity as the Minister of Education of the Ukrainian People's Republic was aimed at the nationalization of the public education system, which could educate a new generation of conscious citizens of Ukraine. After becoming the Minister of the Ukrainian People's Republic, in 1918 the teacher introduced compulsory teaching in schools in the Ukrainian language and issued a document “Schools in Ukraine”, which testified to the opening of schools in 39 settlements of Ukraine.
