Abstract

Perception and attitude are linked with each other to influence second language learning. In local ESL context, perception and attitude of learners towards learning English language are heavily depending on their environment, economic status and experience.  The new National Education Blueprint (2013-2025) has outlined five system aspirations in achieving 50% of reduction in achievement gaps that include urban-rural, socioeconomic and gender.This calls for immediate attention to students from low economic status in effort to close the achievement gap and improve the teaching-learning strategies to cater their specific needs. This preliminary study investigates the underprivileged students from orphanages in the area of Selangor, Malaysia. A total of 30 respondents aged between 13 to 17 years old took part in this study. Data was collected via a questionnaire survey and interviews and was analysed using descriptive statistics. The findings suggest that students have positive attitude in ESL learning and they were aware of its importance. However, their interests in ESL learning are limited due to poor access of resources. Hence, these students have little opportunities to learn the language. Some recommendations are made for future policy and practice.

Abstract

The understanding of human nature is very important for human resource development, because that understanding will be a starting point in establishing development objectives, development strategies, method selection, and the types of media used. The main problem that has arisen so far is that the understanding of human nature is only based on the results of quantitative research, without considering the information from the Essence of the Supreme Creator of human (revelation), and consequently there are missing elements which limit the development of human resources. The quantitative studies only discuss things relating to physical, psychological, and social aspects; while important things such as the human creation process and its purpose, humanity's status before God, its potential and its development have not received enough attention. To find answers to the above shortcomings, this qualitative research utilizing document analysis technique of the Quran main verses relating to humanity was conducted using maudhu‘i interpretation method, namely by studying verses which are related to humanity through the understanding of the interpreters of the Quran. For the triangulation purposes, references were also made to the Hadiths – the words of Prophet Muhammad – as well as books of Tafsir, the translated versions of the Quran in local language. The aspects of human creation, the purpose of creation, and potentials and weaknesses of mankind were discussed in details by the researchers.
