The Relationship

Performance measurement is vital to evaluate job performances and the quality of the work of employees. It is utilized by almost all job sectors including higher learning institutions. Most performance measurements adopt Key Performance Indicators (KPI) to measure performances. This, however, is viewed to be inadequate as it tends to ignore lecturers’ intangible performances. It is argued that there are many significant job and contextual performances which are not being included in their performance appraisals. This article discusses the concept of Key Intangible Performance in teaching and learning tasks by focusing on the relationship between Maqasid al-Shari’ah and KIP for teaching and learning. Specifically, it discusses the concept of Maqasid al-Shari’ah, highlights the KIP for teaching and learning in HEI, and discusses the relationship between Maqasid al-Shari’ah and KIP for teaching and learning using MEB (HE). Keywords: Maqasid al-Shari’ah, Key Intangible Performance, Malaysia Education Blueprint, Higher Education Institution, Teaching and Learning.                   Abstrak Pengukur prestasi sangat penting untuk menilai pelaksanaan dan kualiti kerja pekerja, ia telah digunakan oleh hampir semua sektor pekerjaan termasuklah institusi pengajian tinggi. Sebilangan besar pengukur prestasi yang digunakan secara meluas untuk menilai tahap prestasi seseorang pekerja ialah  Petunjuk Prestasi Utama (KPI). Namun, penggunaan KPI tidak memadai kerana ia lebih cenderung untuk mengabaikan kerja atau aktiviti tidak ketara di kalangan pensyarah. Dikatakan terdapat banyak prestasi kerja dan prestasi kontekstual yang tidak termasuk dalam penilaian prestasi menggunakan KPI ini. Artikel ini membincangkan konsep Petunjuk Prestasi Tidak Ketara (KIP) dengan memberi fokus terhadap hubungannya dengan Maqasid al-Shari’ah dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran. Secara khususnya, ia membincangkan konsep Maqasid al-Shari’ah, menerangkan KIP dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran di IPT, serta membincangkan hubungan antara Maqasid al-Shari’ah dan KIP dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran menggunakan kerangka PPM (PT).            Kata Kunci: Maqasid al-Shari’ah, Prestasi Tidak Ketara, Pelan Pendidikan Malaysia, Institusi Pengajian Tinggi, Pengajaran dan Pembelajaran.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between employee motivation and intention for knowledge sharing behaviour. Inter-generational differences (generations X and Y only) were assumed to moderate in the relationship between intention and knowledge sharing behaviour of non-academic staff of higher learning institutions. This research also aims to test the role of behavioural intention as mediation between motivation and knowledge sharing behaviour. Design/methodology/approach This research tested a conceptual framework derived from widely accepted theories. This study was carried out on non-academic staff working at the different higher learning institutions in Malaysia. Respondents from private and public higher learning institutions in Peninsular Malaysia were asked to complete a self-administered questionnaire. This research also applied confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling to examine the proposed hypothesis of this inquiry. Findings Results indicate that non-academic staff knowledge sharing behaviour was significantly mediated by intention between motivation and knowledge sharing behaviour relationship. More specifically, inter-generational differences (generations X and Y) play a significant moderation role between intention and knowledge sharing behaviour. Research limitations/implications The generalizability of this cross-sectional study can be strengthened by adopting a longitudinal approach in the next phase of the study. Practical implications The results of this research highlighted that the higher learning institutions need to institutionalize knowledge sharing behaviour among their non-academic staff (executive and non-executive) by facilitating knowledge sharing-oriented work environment. Originality/value This paper has attempted to furnish a comprehensive understanding of knowledge sharing behaviour among the non-academic staff of higher learning institutions.

The Relationship

Talent management has been an ongoing focus in teaching and career development among lecturers in universities. However, this effective practice lies in the conduct of certain factors in an organisation. Some of the important factors that contribute to talent management of an organisation are; the ability of lecturers to perform, organizational culture and retention practice of an organisation. Hence, this paper took a milestone in explaining the relationship among talent management and three antecedent factors; performance, organisational culture and retention. Importantly, the research focuses on academicians who are teaching Information Technology related subjects. The leading universities in Malaysia have a tendency to lose competent academicians thus creating a gap in the organisational outcome. Thus, respondents were sampled from Private Higher Learning Institutions in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The data was collected from 133 respondents who have been teaching in IT related modules. Hypotheses were built based on the relationship between variables and analysed using Pearson Correlation in via the SPSS software.  The results showthat two hypotheses are not supported except for one of the hypothesis on retention has indicated a significant relationship with the talent management practice of the university.  Information Technology is a fast growing industry as lecturers in this field need to be constantly updated in their knowledge, skills and ability. This requires talent management. Academicians who are unable to do this with the support and motivation of an organisation may not be able to offer their services in the university. Consequently, this can lead to poor outcome on knowledge delivery to students or the turnover rate may be affected. Overall, this paper has called for good human resource practices for lecturers in the teaching profession.

This article investigates the role of learning Jawi classical book as one of the important teaching and learning methods in Islamic sciences especially in the study of Islamic Jurisprudence in Malaysia. The method of using the classical Jawi texts has been in place in the Malay Archipelago since a long period of time. However, it is no longer becoming the primary teaching and learning methods nowadays. Thus, this study will look into the effects and significance of learning the classical Jawi texts in understanding the Islamic sciences, particularly the Islamic Jurisprudence. The analysis will also focus on the implementation of learning classical Jawi texts through the talaqqi (face to face) method in several academic faculties at the Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia. For this purpose, descriptive qualitative method is utilized as well as questionnaires and coupled with semi-structured interviews. The study concludes that the learning of classical Jawi texts through talaqqi method is extremely essential in Malaysia specifically to Shariah students. These texts are considered the main sources in the study of Islamic sciences in this region. The understanding of such primary sources in Islamic studies empowers students with well-grounded knowledge before they embark into the study of other modern discipline of knowledge. With such well-grounded knowledge students are able to withstand themselves from other influences which may affect their understanding of their religion. The tradition of studying of classical Jawi texts should be reintroduced to the Malay Muslim communities in Malaysia especially to the students at higher learning institutions in the country.Keywords: Islamic Turath; Islamic Education; Malay Civilizaton; Pondok System; Jawi Classical Book. ARTIKEL: Artikel ini meninjau peranan pengajian kitab turath Jawi sebagai satu bentuk kaedah pengajaran dan pembelajaran ilmu-ilmu Islam yang penting terutama kepada pengajian ilmu fiqah di Malaysia. Tradisi pengajian yang menggunakan teks turath Jawi telah lama dipraktikkan di Alam Melayu. Namun begitu, sistem pengajian moden tempatan dilihat kurang memberi penekanan kepada pengambilan teks turath Jawi sebagai teks utama dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran. Oleh itu, artikel ini cuba melihat kesan dan kepentingan pengajian teks turath Jawi untuk memahami ilmu-ilmu Islam, khususnya ilmu fiqah. Di samping itu, perbincangan artikel ini turut melihat perlaksanaan pengajian talaqqi kitab turath Jawi di beberapa buah fakulti di Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia. Untuk tujuan ini, kaedah kualitatif deskriptif digunapakai di samping soal selidik dan temu bual berstruktur separa. Hasil kajian ini mendapati bahawa pengajian talaqqi kitab turath Jawi merupakan satu kaedah yang sangat penting dalam dunia pendidikan di Malaysia terutama kepada pelajar aliran syariah. Kitab turath Jawi dianggap sebagai sumber utama dalam pengajian ilmu-ilmu Islam di rantau ini. Kefahaman terhadap teks turath Jawi ini dapat memantapkan para pelajar dengan ilmu-ilmu asas Islam yang kukuh sebelum mula mempelajari ilmu-ilmu moden. Dengan itu, mereka dapat mempertahankan diri daripada pelbagai pengaruh luar yang boleh menjejaskan kefahaman mereka terhadap Islam. Tuntasnya, tradisi pengajian kitab-kitab turath Jawi perlu diketengahkan semula dalam masyarakat Melayu di Malaysia khususnya masyarakat kampus di institusi-institusi pengajian tinggi tempatan.Kata Kunci: Turath Islami; Pendidikan Islam; Tamadun Melayu; Sistem Pondok; Kitab Jawi.

The Relationship

This study was conducted to examine the relationship between external factors on the achievement of assessment tests and gender of students in Arabic writing skills in Malaysian Institutions of Higher Learning. A total of 140 respondents from four Malaysian higher learning institutions (MHLI) were selected, namely Sultan Zainal Abidin University (90 respondents), International Islamic University College of Selangor (25 respondents), Sultan Ahmad Shah Islamic University College, Pahang (9 respondents), and Sultan Ismail Petra International Islamic College (16 respondents) as the study sample. The data obtained were analysed using Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) version 22.0 software. Inferential analysis method, namely Pearson correlation was used to find the relationship between two different study variables, namely dependent variables and independent variables. The findings showed that there was no significant relationship between external factors on Arabic writing skills based on assessment tests. However, this relationship was found to be significant based on gender of students. This was because the correlation between external factors with student achievement test scores was (r = - 0.062, n = 140, p = 0.463), while the correlation between external factors on gender of students was (r = 0.181, n = 140, p = 0.032). This finding indicates that the relationship between external factors with the assessment test was irrelevant in affecting Arabic writing skills, and was not significant. However, the researchers found that external factors can significantly affect the Arabic writing skills among MHLI students based on gender through the analysis of the study obtained.

PurposeThis study is aimed to measure and understand the relationship between individual entrepreneurial orientation (IEO) and entrepreneurial intention (EI) among students of higher learning institutions (HLI’s) in India. This study is focused on understanding IEO dimension of proactiveness, innovativeness and risk-taking attitude and EI across gender, academic background, and regions. Many recent and past studies confirm that there is an apparent gap in the literature to understand this phenomenon among students of higher learning institutions.Design/methodology/approachThe study is based on a sample of 393 students studying in 35 different universities and institutions in the North, South and Western regions of India. The data were analyzed using hierarchical regression and ANOVA.FindingsThe empirical result shows a relationship and a positive impact of individual entrepreneurial orientation dimensions upon entrepreneurial intentions. Controlling for gender, males depict higher perseverance toward individual entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial intentions. The same result was found for management and entrepreneurship students who also depict a higher (mean) t-value than science, engineering students. The findings of this study reveal a significant contribution to the academic literature by highlighting the influencing role of gender, academic background, and region upon entrepreneurial intentions.Practical implicationsThe study reveals that institutional culture, lack of academic rigor, regional difference, economic gaps, gender perception, and overall culture may be considered as bothering forces for entrepreneurship to grow via institutions. These forces, if eliminated, can help build an institutional environment helpful for entrepreneurial progression in the country.Originality/valueThere are limited studies available in the context of individual entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial Intention relationship. This study provides the analysis for Indian regions and uses data collected from different universities and institutions of India.

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to analyse non-native adults’ self-drive and ways that has influenced towards the development of Malay language programme in which the programme caters to their needs, expectations and self-drive in University of Malaya for Continuing Education. Methodology: This study aims to analyse non-native adults’ self-drive in an informal adult education at a higher learning institution in Malaysia using an action research method comprising 58 non-native adult learners which was implemented from January 2014 to December 2017. The evidence gathered through feedback, observation and continuous assessment. Findings: The outcome of this study reveals that strong self-drive among non-native adult learners encouraged and increased the effort towards the introduction of a Malay language programme that suits their needs and expectations. Research Limitations/Implications: It was reported that the development of new Malay programme would have been more successful and benefits more language instructors and academicians. Their involvement would provide more support and critical views in the research in order to validate the formulation of the Malay programme. Social Implications: The improvement in teaching and learning process undertaken has also accelerated adult learners’ attainment and competency in Malay language. As a result of non-native adult leaners’ excellent attainment has reinforced the Malay language educator to attract and increase the enrolment for continuing education at higher learning institutions that offer Malay programme as lifelong learning programme. Originality/Value: The study on self-drive among non-native adults and how it has influenced towards the development of a Malay programme that caters to their needs, interests and expectations is still new, and it is a first-hand study of its kind. The results will be useful for those who are involved in adult teaching and in steering Malay as Modern Foreign Language programme at higher education.
