Psychological assessments are used in the field of education to find answers for the questions raise concerning the student’s intellectual, academic, social and emotional functioning. The collection, integration, and interpretation of all information and data gathered from the assessment will enable better understanding of the student’s characteristics and capacities. More effective interventions, recommendations and referrals can then be implemented. This book offers researchers and practitioners insights on assessment concepts and practices that are in line with the demand of education in the 21st century. As the new horizon unfolded, there is a paradigm shift in assessment; moving from macro to micro level of learning, from accountability of school to supporting teaching and learning, from summative to formative and diagnostics, from assessing achievement of individuals to catering of learning needs of diverse learners. The new horizon of assessment serves as catalysis for more effective psychological assessment in educational research and practice.

Anger Management for Adolescents (Penerbit USM)

In this period of developmental spectrum, adolescents go through a lot of changes and challenges in life physically, socially, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Some adolescents may not be ready to cope with all these challenges, as they may not be able to deal with their emotions.

Tourism Research in Malaysia: What, Which Way and So What? (UUM Press)

  • Publisher: UUM Press

This collection offers a sample of contemporary works on tourism and its impact on the Malaysian environment, written by academics from a variety of perspectives. Given the growing body of literature on different aspects of the industry the coverage is by no means representative, let alone exhaustive, of the current discourse. Nonetheless the nineteen chapters cover a range of interests and concerns which have emerged as a consequence of spectacular growth in tourist arrival which currently places Malaysia as one of the most popular destinations in Asia. Recent forecast indicates that the growth trends will continue for at least another decade before the country as a destination approaches maturity. This volume would be a useful reference for students, academic and other researchers who are looking for detailed information to enable them to analyse the impacts and implications of tourism development on the host society.

Shopping with Allah illustrates the ways in which religion is mobilised in package tourism and how spiritual, economic and gendered practices are combined in a form of tourism where the goal is not purely leisure but also ethical and spiritual cultivation. Focusing on the intersection of gender and Islam, Viola Thimm shows how this intersection develops and changes in a pilgrimage-tourism nexus as part of capitalist and halal consumer markets. Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork in Malaysia, the United Arab Emirates and Oman, Thimm sheds light on how Islam and gender frame Malaysian religious tourism and pilgrimage to the Arabian Peninsula, but she raises many issues that are of great ...

HALAL LIFESTYLE: Theory and Practice in Indonesia

The implications of the “halalization” phenomenon in Indonesia today involve not only the food sector but also other sectors. Starting with travel, medication in case of illness, fashion, make-up equipment for women to support their appearance, and other lifestyle models. A person’s habit of consuming goods/services oriented towards a halal frame of mind is also known as a halal lifestyle. Practising a halal lifestyle can ensure and manage the morality of everything that is done by someone involved in it. At the same time, the halal lifestyle also maintains human self-esteem, dignity, and respect; human self-control; and maintaining human integrity and individuality. Practising the halal lifestyle in this life is every Muslim’s right, but it is a privilege for any non-Muslim. Therefore, let’s start a halal lifestyle from an early age because halal is good for oneself and others.
