ABSTRACT
During the Covid-19 pandemic, a shift from face to face Teaching and Learning (T&L)
approach to Online Distance Learning (ODL) which include online tests or exam become a
new norm. To ensure exam process credibility takes place, an innovative online assessment
PeBAT21 is developed. PeBAT21 is an application which can be easily installed into any
smartphone even with low internet connectivity. In general, PeBAT21 is a protocol and
procedure just like the conventional invigilation process. However, with some element of
innovation, PeBAT21 comprised of student’s database who has history of cheating during
previous examination. By having this record, an alternative examination procedure will be
conducted to the students according to the risk of cheating. Stricter invigilation procedure will
be imposed on students with higher risk of cheating. The student is compulsory to use the
smartphone and laptop camera to determine their location. This is also to assist the invigilator
to monitor the student’s surrounding and environment. Productivity levels of invigilator may
increase as the focus during invigilation will be given to the students who has been categorized
in higher risk of cheating group. By implementing PeBAT21, it may boost up morale and
increase the confident of every stakeholder by knowing that the results achieved by student is
verified through a well-established invigilation system. In general, the development cost of
PeBAT21 is low and only required minimum devices. In addition, this protocol is also
applicable for different courses or subjects. PeBAT21 can be efficient if the adoption shows
improvement in minimizing the issue of cheating amongst students during online assessment.
This will bring positive impacts and create opportunity for PeBAT21 to penetrate the massive
market in any level of learning institutions such as secondary school, private college and
institution as well as public learning center.

ABSTRACT
Due to environmental and sustainability concerns, the development of biocomposites has
resulted in remarkable advances in green technology in the field of materials science. Natural
fibres, in particular, will reduce waste disposal issues as well as pollution. Coconut fibre is one
of the natural fibres abundantly available in tropical regions, and the coconut (Cocos nucifera)
is widely known as the "tree of life." Coconut fibers can act as a shock absorber and can be
good material for protection used because its physical properties and its advantages where
its texture is in bundles that are stiff, resilient, spongy, and pliable. It is also resistant to decay
where it is highly resistant to microbial attacks when it is preserved. Attributable to these
special features, coconut fiber based Co-Knee Cap can provide commercial rivals. Co-Knee
Cap promises safety features such as strong, light weight, can easily withstand heat and it is
also in non-electroconductivity condition, where it can protect consumers and prevent injuries.

ABSTRACT
Thulium lasers usually operate at the longer mid-infrared (IR) wavelength region and they
have been extensively used for various medical applications. Conventional thulium lasers are
based on free-space solid-state lasers, which are expensive to be maintained as they require
precise optical alignments over time and they are extremely bulky. Meanwhile, fiber lasers use
optical fibers as the light-guiding medium and they do not require complicated alignments as
they could be easily joint by fusion splicing or by using optical connectors. They are also more
flexible as they could be easily bent or spooled while still being able to guide light effectively.
As such, we have developed a compact and compact Thulium fiber laser that is fully fiberized.
The compact Thulium fiber laser being developed in this project could replace the bulkier
conventional lasers as it is space-efficient and also portable. In the laser industry, Malaysia
has yet to manufacture its own lasers, especially fiber lasers. The existing lasers are mostly
imported from Russia, Germany, the USA, to name a few. A successful commercialization of
our developed fiber laser would therefore, be a stepping stone in the laser industry in Malaysia.
The newly introduce technology could lead to the establishment of spin out companies as well
as a creation of new processes and services. This also include the potential for employment
in SMEs to manufacture the fiber lasers, as well as new jobs in marketing and sales. The
project is also in line with the National Policy on Industry 4.0 to acquire knowledge and
technological advancement in advanced materials and to develop highly skilled work force for
the high-technology industry.

ABSTRACT
Translations Topic in Mathematical subjects requires tracing papers to answer questions,
while angles and sketches should also be appropriate. Tracing paper requires a high cost to
be provided for each student. Students also need a high level of imagination to understand
the topic of translation, especially in the subtopics of the spin. To solve this problem, an
innovation called “Rotactor Gold” has been designed and modified. This Rotactor Gold is
enhanced from the market's existing protector using two scales, clockwise and counter-
clockwise. The uniqueness is also on thread having a scale that serves as a rotation indicator
to accurately position the image. The most interesting is that, the Rotactor Gold is made up of
low cost materials such as plastic and yarn, thus making it extremely cost-effective. This
Rotactor Gold greatly helps the various levels of students in understanding the concept of
translation. In addition to Mathematics subjects, this Rotactor Gold can also help students in
Geography and Physics subjects. Students are able to locate the bearing of a location in the
Geography subject and students can also use this innovation to see the concept of the
resolution and the balance of power in the Physics subject. Having been used in many
Teaching and Pasting, the conclusion is that learning with Rotactor Gold becomes more
interesting and beneficial to teachers and students throughout the world.

ABSTRACT
The Arterivena model was developed to overcome the problem of Form 3 Pupils who are
confused and find it difficult to compare the structure and function of blood vessels. The
traditional method of drawing and sketching is very boring and makes students less interested
in this topic. The study sample consisted of 24 Form 3 students. Pre -test was made where
students were taught with traditional methods namely drawing and LCD display. Post -tests
were made using the ArteriVena Model to teach the topic of comparison between blood
vessels in humans. The results of the Pre and Post Tests showed a very encouraging increase
in scores. Findings of feedback from students found that this ArteriVena Model proved to have
a positive effect on the PdPc process, especially to improve students' mastery in the subtopic
of comparison of the structure and function of blood vessels. By using this ArteriVena Model,
students can increase their mastery and understanding in the subtopic of comparison of the
structure and function of blood vessels through the concept of "IBSE-MODELING" and foster
a spirit of collaboration. This ArteriVena model is not only used as an interesting teaching and
learning aid, but it can also foster creative and creative thinking among students. This
ArteriVena model is also easily adapted by Science teachers for use in their classrooms.

ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact countries around the world. Numbers of
countries worldwide have reinforced strict restrictions and lockdowns following a surge of
COVID-19 cases. Social distancing, enforcement of the mask usage in public are among of
the strategies applies. However, there is a trade-off between the expense of implementing
these strategies with communities’ economic, physical, and mental well-being. People are
living in fear and often choose to stay at home due to the reason how clueless they are about
the health status of people around them. Thus, the level of anxiety, stress and depression is
rising among the population. Recently, the concept of community bubbles has been employed
in a few European countries to allow people move around while reducing the risk of contracting
the COVID-19 virus. The idea of community bubbles is a group of people lives in an enclosed
bubble in which the commercial and tourism activities are permitted. Although the concept is
adopted in some countries, there are no web or mobile application to allow the concept from
reaching its potential. JumSafe! Bubble is an apps that apply the concept of bubble by enabling
people to move around without worries by entering and leaving a bubble. Entering and leaving
a bubble must fulfil certain criteria based on the standard operating procedure (SOP) that was
released by the national authorities. It is hope the research can contribute to better
understanding on the concept of community bubbles and reaching its’ potential. Through the
apps, it will be able to help communities connect with community bubbles more easily, such
as forming, joining, leaving, and visualizing the bubble. Lastly, this apps will help in minimizing
the financial and emotional losses suffered by the communities and countries while providing
effective ways to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic or any future pandemics.

ABSTRACT
Malaysia has a tropical weather which often quite humid. Despite this, the weather is never
too hot and temperatures range from a mild 20°C to 30°C average throughout the year;
however the highlands experience cooler temperatures. This brought Malaysia a fertile soil
and forests still cover about 54%of the total land area. However, due to extensive usage of
garden rakes makes it uncomfortable at spinal and abdominal muscles during garden raking
with two rakes and rake handles and advisable to search for better rake. Installed with 1"
diameter wooden, metal or stainless steel handle. They come with a long handle and a head
with a set of equally spaced steel that rolled approximately 10 inches long. The rolled equipped
with medium hard blades that could make sure the dead leaves and cut grasses came along
while rolled it. As mentioned above, this garden roller rake has a roller that helps to collects
the dead leaves and bring it together while using this equipment. Furthermore, this garden
rake equipped with medium hard blades. The function of this blades specifically helps to take
along all the dead leaves and cut grasses. In addition, this blades functions as detaching the
soil. This process is very crucial to make sure that minerals and, air and water is not clog or
soften the soil. Later it makes a good fertile soil. Potentially commercialize in Malaysia since
the choices of rake is limited.

ABSTRACT
Fruits planters in Malaysia are facing the worst challenge when the COVID-19 pandemic
began from early of 2020, especially high yields of fruits harvested starting from second
quarter of the year when the sunny and dry weather kicks in. This has a particular impact on
the vast plantation of pineapples in Sabah, which has been a core farming program since the
end of 2018.Thus, immediate action is crucial to assist these planters. Other than selling as
fresh fruits, some local farmers have ventured into producing homemade fruit jams, chutneys
and juices. However, no one to the best of our knowledge has explored the production of
vinegar using pineapple. This brings to the objective of this invention to use the excessive
pineapple for the production of vinegar. Pineapple (Ananas comosus) contains total solids of
13-19% that fulfill the criteria as an ideal carbohydrate source for the alcoholic fermentation of
sugar by yeast, and later acetic fermentation by bacteria into vinegar. Vinegar is a unique
product as it does not involve complicated processing steps with no additives and
preservatives required. Fruit vinegar generally carries various health benefits including
antimicrobial, antioxidant, antidiabetic, antitumor, antiobesity, prevention of cardiovascular
diseases with cholesterol-lowering and antihypertensive effects. This invention can not only
bring the impact to the local community in generating additional income through this value-
adding opportunity, but it can be a harbinger for the production of pineapple vinegar with
functional food properties at a higher commercial value in the market.

ABSTRACT

A problem statement is a brief description of a problem that must be solved or of a situation
that must be improved. It determines the difference between the current (problem) and desired
(goal) states of a process or product. Writing a clear problem statement in research aids the
reader in understanding the research's purpose. Writing a succinct problem statement, on the
other hand, continues to be difficult. As a result, the reader has no idea what the research's
goal is. Using the IRCA, this innovation aims to assist a researcher in writing a more precise
problem statement. IRCA are acronyms for Ideal, Reality, Consequences, and Aim. These
four major themes aid a researcher in developing a more organised and clear problem
statement.

ABSTRACT
Introductory Generator Component (IGC) project using Augmented Reality (AR) technology
for learning and teaching. Students have difficulty understanding the contents of the Engine
Diesel Generator (MEB10022) course and it is difficult to get the same explanation every time
the learning is implemented. The objective of producing this innovation project is to evaluate
the effectiveness of strategies as well as identify appropriate teaching aids to address the
problems faced by students in mastering the components contained in the Generator. The
methodology carried out in designing this innovation project is based on the ADDIE concept.
The innovation project was registered by Intellectual Property Corporation of Malaysia
(MyIPO) and obtained the official registration number. The project was created as a result of
the combination of two main software namely Unity and Vuforia. In addition, the project is not
taken from any Augmented Reality company that is on the market. According to the analysis
of quantitative data collected from diagnostic tests and post-teaching tests, the use of IGC can
improve the mastery and understanding among students in relation to generators. The
summary of the survey found that 87% of students strongly agreed and 13% of students
agreed with the statement "My understanding of generators is better and clearer". The IGC
project will be enhanced by inserting generator images in a more attractive 3D form and adding
more interactive elements to the user. This method should be extended to TVET stream
students in ILP, ADTEC, IKM/KKTM, Community Colleges, Polytechnics and Public and
Private Universities. In conclusion, IGC can improve the mastery and understanding of the
students about generators better and can be utilized by all students especially in the electrical
department.

ABSTRACT
Malaysia have a variety of traditional dances from different races and ethnics. These intangible
heritage and traditions should be preserved and conserved. This project proposes a new form
of fitness training module that fits to the virtual technology generation. The module combines
informative health guidelines and a series of new fitness exercises. This fitness exercise hybrid
the multi-ethic Malaysian traditional dances movement and music, with a structured
cardiovascular exercises movement. The repertoire will be recorded in HD and presented in
a form of virtual (video). The design is suitable for all walks of life, especially for the society
today. Rationally, health is a top priority amid the pandemic and post-Covid-19. Preliminary
research ascertains that, during Moving Control Order (MCO), the new norms of staying home,
no outside activities, no cycling or gymnasium have led to health issues including weigh
problems or more worst led to severe obesity. People with severe obesity are more likely to
have other diseases – type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease
and sleep apnea. This project aims to innovate an alternative and new style of interactive
virtual exercise to create an awareness on health to the society today. Subsequently, the
hybrid element of fitness with Malaysian cultural dance have a high potential to promote,
preserve and conserve our national heritage. In the context of productivity, this project can be
benefitted by the public in the context of health, entrepreneurship, and quality of life.

complete details to be placed on the garment. This study aims to analyze how clothes and
braille affect each other in providing information in the design, how to coordinate clothes
according to color by color code, and to overcome the challenges of wearing clothes amongst
visually impaired people. This project is to contribute and achieve SDGs 9 and 11 which are
related to Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure, and Sustainable Cities and Communities.
Braille becomes a major element in designing color code by entering the details required to
convey information. It also plays a role in terms of color identifications to visually impaired
people using a braille touch that has been designed with various shapes to represent each
color code. This information must be on the garment to satisfy the requirements of the visually
impaired community. Incorporating fashion elements and components on a color code that
focuses on braille touches is a special solution for this visually impaired people. Many
struggles the unseemly faced, difficulties include daily clothing identification and clothing
choices made without assistance. This color code is focused on functionality and practicality.
It is a very practical approach in helping them to dress and at the same time teach them to live
independently in the future. With the assistance provided, this visually impaired community
can learn to live independently in their daily activities. Raising the awareness of society,
upgrading individual thinking, and creating innovative designs for emulated by future
generations, and also to make Malaysia a country that helps achieve the goals of SDGs over
period and time.

ABSTRACT
In March 2020, Malaysia's Prime Minister was forced to declare total lockdown in response to
the outbreak of coronavirus disease, forcing schools and tertiary institutions to close. Many
educational institutions have had to switch to online teaching platforms because of this.
Universiti Teknologi MARA is one of the public institutions in Malaysia that is switching their
mode of teaching and learning from a traditional approach to an online and distance learning
(ODL) approach. It is a challenge for both parties (students and educators) to adapt to this
new environment of learning. Student engagement is one of the most pressing concerns for
educators. According to research, incorporating games into teaching and learning activities
can increase student engagement, participation, and motivation. Students pursuing a Diploma
in Banking and a Diploma in Business Studies at Universiti Teknologi MARA are required to
take Fundamentals of Finance course. This subject require the students to read and solve
problems related to finance. The delivery of factual data by an educator is frequently tedious
and boring, hence, this Finance & Me (FinME 1.0), an educational game, was invented to
make learning finance fun and easier. This novel effort is based on feedback from students
who believe that incorporating games into learning finance will be fun and interesting.
Furthermore, it might help to enhance student engagement. This FinME 1.0 is specifically
designed based on related topics in Fundamentals of Finance course and suit the students'
environment, distinguishing it from other finance games in the market. This would then help
the students to boost their financial knowledge for better understanding and application. This
FinME 1.0 also has a potential for commercialisation since it is useful for students, educators
or public either for self-improvement or as digital education tools.

ABSTRACT
Innumeracy is quite frequent at schools and this causes lack the skills to deal confidently with
many of the mathematical challenges of modern life. However, most of society does not see
it as a problem. In fact, many people boast about their innumeracy. This frivolousness toward
the prevalence of mathematics has become an accepted norm that resulted in many students
leave school so innumerate they are incapable of dealing with the challenges of everyday life
for examples from finances, to home maintenance, to personal healthcare. Consequently,
halfway through the academic year 2019/2020, learning methods were delivered through
distance learning to meet the policy of compulsory physical distancing by the government.
Being aware of online learning is currently adopted by educational institutions worldwide to
provide students with ongoing education during this COVID-19 pandemic, we design and
develop this application, RE’BER Line that could be utilized as an adaptable tool for the
educational process. Being a contemporary application, it can promote active learning,
develops various skills among students, helps them to overcome their innumeracy and
improves their engagement with the subject. This application is a better innovation than the
past invented real number line ruler (RE’BER LINE RULER) because it develops their math
skills especially in mental calculation, while retaining their entertainment and attention span
during lesson. Like any other new tool, this application attempts to take on a new feature to
make it more interactive by providing gamification features in the future. Nevertheless, for
today’s students who neglect the outside world for the benefit of virtual worlds, we believe this
application can overcome their disabilities.

ABSTRACT
According to The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and other health groups, getting the
kids back in school is the best for their physical, mental, social, and emotional health. It is also
the place where and how kids learn best. However, protecting the children from the spreading
of the virus of Covid-19 at school is quite challenging for the teachers and parents. Both
parents and teachers still need to play their important roles to disseminate accurate
information and facts about COVID-19 in addressing the children’s fear and anxiety about the
disease. Besides, UNICEF has listed some suggestions about how teachers can engage the
children of different ages in preventing and controlling the spread of COVID-19 virus. One of
the suggestions is to use puppets or dolls to demonstrate symptoms, to sing and dance while
learning the facts about Covid-19 and last but not least is to use the board games to show the
consequences when one happened to be infected with the virus of Covid-19. These play-
based activities make the learning fun, interactive and easily accessible by the children.
Therefore, Coviducational board game is created to help teachers and parents sharing
information about COVID-19 in a fun and interactive way among the children. In all, this
educational board game is dynamic and easy to learn. Teachers and parents can play together
with the children while sharing with them about Covid-19 virus, the signs and symptoms of
Covid-19 and ways to protect themselves from Covid-19. Coviducational board game will help
the children to understand the virus and the basic concept of Covid-19 prevention and control.
By playing the board game, the children will develop a variety of connections with the content
and can develop positive memories of learning in self-preventing the spread of Covid-19.

ABSTRACT
SpaReach is the third spinoff of the Home-based Cosmetology (HOBCOS) project which
began in 2013. It was replicated from the HOBCOS that was already patented in 2018 and the
latter had its own training manual. SpaReach was originally ideated from several joint
community programs between UiTM Cawangan Johor’s Spa & Sauna Mini Incubator and
Segamat district’s Community-Based Rehabilitation Center (PDK). Such first-time
collaboration indeed came to fruition as 30 Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) and from B40
income group, who were the main target groups, were trained from January 2018 to December
2019. They learned basic spa skills extensively at the Mini Incubator and PDK premise (food
skills training) by following the existing HOBCOS training manual. SpaReach has an additional
innovative feature – a vendor boutique platform mall called Boutique Vendor Community Mall
(BoVesCoMall). Participating PWDs/B40s were allowed to use the facilities or equipment at
the Mini Incubator, and to display products at BoVesCoMall. It is a lucrative venue and an
opportunity for PWDs/B40 entrepreneurs to showcase their products to their substantial
potential customers at UiTMCJ. SpaReach’s aims are in line with SDG 1 (No Poverty) and
SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth) as it provides them with survival skills to earn
income during COVID-19 which is also in line with the PDK’s main objective. When the
COVID-19 pandemic outbreak emerged in March 2020, all spa-related activities had to be
shelved. Nevertheless, while confined at home, some PWDs/B40s were still enthusiastic to
generate income by selling organic noodles, bakery products and Malaysian ice-creams within
their community. SpaReach has commercialization potential as this project has successfully
equipped the participating PWDs/B40s with the necessary survival skills to help them in an
unexpected situation like the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, it is hoped that SpaReach has
instilled a sense of independence, boosted self-confidence of their intrinsic worth and resulted
in them feeling less disheartened by their circumstances.

ABSTRACT
Learning accounting theory and concept presents greater challenge as it requires an
understanding of its application to the real-world situation. To optimize learning outcomes, an
integrated digitalized financial accounting tool was created to provide an interactive learning
experience in exploring the accounting process. This innovation known as e-FINCounts,
enable accounting data to be simulated by leveraging information technology to resemble the
actual accounting system. The pre-built accounting system that is embedded within e-
FINCounts allows student to discover knowledge in a self-learning environment. Hence,
understanding of the accounting theory and concept is enhanced as the four main accounting
processes were integrated into the system. As an assessment tool, e-FINCounts can be
assigned as an individual project and has a unique feature that can address academic issues
such as “free-rider” and plagiarism. Other practical benefits of e-FINCounts include reduction
of resources in terms of paper usage as it supports a paperless teaching and learning
environment. Aside from that, the output from e-FINCounts can be generated either in
printable form or as a softcopy to be kept as reference material for audit purposes or other
academic use. The application of e-Count as an accounting pedagogy offers an effective
teaching and learning approach especially in an era of pandemics where face-to-face
interaction becomes limited. It is not only suitable for secondary school but also needed by
those at tertiary level. As such, e-FINCounts is expected to be in high demand and has the
potential for commercialization.

ABSTRACT
COVID-19 has unquestionably had a negative influence on the Malaysian industry, including
tourism. Players in the tourism industry who provide spaces for recreational and leisure
activities had not only uncertainty about how to handle activities in their facilities during the
epidemic without breaking the law, but also about how to stay afloat and avoid being dissolved
owing to financial losses. Under the law, a person who has a sufficient degree of control over
a premise is considered an occupier and bears a duty of care to protect the safety of visitors
to his premises. As a result, any industrial player in charge of a recreational or leisure facility
is clearly required to take reasonable safeguards and appropriate precautions before re-
opening of their business. The objective of this product is to create awareness for tourism
industry players on a standard of care to be observed towards visitors during the operation of
their business while adhering to the standard operating procedures provided by the
government. The product’s novelty can be found in the legal framework’s construction in which
it eradicates the difficulty in learning and understanding the laws. The product can steer the
reader to comprehend the concept of duty of care as outline by common law. It can be used
as a reference for tourism players in handling their business operation as it integrates the
standard of care to be observed by the industry in accordance with types of visitors of the said
premise with the standard of operating procedures ordained by the government. In addition,
the simplification of the law makes it easy to understand for non-legal background reader.

ABSTRACT
The Covid19 outbreak changed all aspects of community life. These include interactions in
cyberspace via Instagram, Twitter or IG in real time. Cyberspace interaction has become a
new mode and norm of social interaction. If not handled properly, it can be abused and
exploited. This is because the Covid19 pandemic makes people and society very vulnerable
in all aspects, especially in handling emotional responses to certain problems. Sometime,
online interaction has become the basis for various misconduct on the web, including online
defamation. Defamation is a type of civil law that provides civil remedies when someone's
words or actions damage the reputation of others. Defamatory comments often reduce a
person's reputation and dignity in the public eye, causing others to avoid them. The relevant
legislation for civil defamation is the 1957 "Defamation Act", while criminal defamation is dealt
with in Chapter 21 (Articles 499-502) of the Penal Code. The main objective of the project is
to teach defamation law to students and media professionals in the easiest way, by using
attractive images and infographics. The project also aims to sensitize the public about the
responsibilities that the public, especially young people, may face regarding the publication of
malicious content prescribed by law. The Booklet is written in simple English, without legal
terminology, easy to understand and absorb. The concept of defamation is also explained to
the participants using a good and fascinating technique. This booklet is easy to read and
understand. It uses interactive technology to disseminate, deliver and let users know the latest
legal knowledge about online defamation. It is not only very useful in an academic
environment, but also very useful to the public, especially young social media users and media
professionals, who can easily become the target of defamation complaints. In terms of
marketing, the product is easy to market because it takes the form of an electronic brochure
that contains the latest legal information on the latest topics needed to avoid litigation during
the pandemic.

ABSTRACT
Worldwide, COVID-19 has had a significant impact on society, requiring necessary changes
in all aspects of life. This epidemic has undoubtedly had a substantial impact on education
(Korkmaz & Toraman, 2020). The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19
outbreak as a pandemic in March 2020, affecting all sectors, including the global educational
system (Samat, Awang, Hussin, & Nawi, 2020). This pandemic of the COVID-19 virus had a
profound impact on education, as both schools and universities were compelled by global
preventive measures to adapt to distance education. However, this causes stress and anxiety
among students; as students prefer in-person classes over online learning and they lack
adequate technology. According to educators, most students enrolling in Introduction to
Financial Accounting (ACC106) lack basic accounting knowledge, particularly accounting
classifications. Thus, a board game called Gymmanji 2.0 was created. Gymmanji 2.0 acts as
a support tool to compliment traditional teaching methods and was designed to assist players
obtain fundamental accounting and business knowledge as well as the confidence to apply
this knowledge and skills in the real world. This board game uses attractive business miniature
items (e.g. gym equipment and office furniture) to make the business scenario more realistic
and easier to understand. With people around the world being confined to their own homes
during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Gymmanji 2.0 board game might be able to help students
with their mental health and give them opportunities to overcome anxiety issues and
pandemic-related distress caused by the increase in screen time among students during this
crisis. It is a useful tool to teach and practice social skills, as they will be able to play it with
their families as well as develop self-learning skills. Gymmanji 2.0 has the potential to be
commercialized to educational institutions and students who have taken courses in
accounting, business, and banking.

ABSTRACT
This study was made to help students remember the facts found in the History Subject through
the JawNgat Module Technique. This JawNagt technique is taken from the words answer and
Remember and combined the words jaw and ngat to become JawNgat. It is a method of
learning while playing, that is, answering crossword questions whose clues are made based
on the topics found in the textbook syllabus. It is another alternative for teachers to attract
students to study the Subject of History. Preliminary surveys found that students had difficulty
remembering Historical facts after reading or listening to discussions of topics in class. Pre-
tests showed that all students were only able to answer at least 2 questions correctly out of
10 questions asked. This in turn contributes to the failure of students to master the subject of
History. On this awareness, a teaching method using the JawNgat Module is used to help
students remember Historical facts. Furthermore, the equipment used to prepare this JawNgat
Module is cheap, namely white A4 paper to print into modules and download the application
to create crosswords. It is a resolution taken to be used as a learning aid. The answers given
by students will be heard by other students. The study involved 10 students from SVM 2 ETE1
class. The results showed that as many as 90% of the students successfully answered the
questions asked well after using this JawNgat Module Technique. This material is very useful
as a teaching aid for teachers and students towards improving student performance, and can
even be applied to other subjects.

ABSTRACT
Article 161A of the Federal Constitution provides for the special position of natives of Sabah
and Sarawak. The Native Courts Enactment 1992 is the law that governs the native legal
system in Sabah. Even though native courts in the state existed hundred years ago, until
today, it is submitted that there is not much development of the laws and the system of
administration. Section 3(2) of the 1992 Enactment provides that a Native Court shall be
presided by the Native Chiefs or Headmen. However, to date, it is still not clear how the
qualifications of the native courts' personnel are determined. Although the native chiefs are
well-versed in adat or customs, steps must be taken to educate them on the rule of
interpretation and procedure. The approaches that are taken by the native chiefs in interpreting
the law and deciding cases are very much related to the administration of justice. It is argued
that a lack of formal education on the part of the Native chiefs could lead to the inefficiency of
the administration of native law. Thus, the idea to create this eNative Law Kit is intended to
make it easy for the native courts' personnel, especially the headmen, to understand the legal
system better and get easy access to the provisions in the 1992 Enactment, judgments of
previous cases, roles and functions of native courts personnel, and the procedures. Having a
clear and better understanding of how the native court systems work is one way to prevent
abuse of power and non-compliance of the legal process. The eNative Law Kit will consist of
the Native Courts Enactment 1992, cases, forms, responsibilities, and duties of native courts'
personnel. It can be downloaded on any smartphone and can be monitored and updated as
appropriate. Finally, it can be patented, and a certain fee can be imposed before it can be
downloaded.

ABSTRACT
The ongoing worldwide pandemic of COVID-19 has created awareness and best practices to
avoid the spread of microorganisms. Therefore, these issues motivated material scientists to
search for functional material with valuable properties to alleviate the risks associated with the
coronavirus. We have known that fabrics are the first protective layer to a human when
possibly exposed to bacteria or pathogens. Previously, the conductive Polyaniline (PANI)
fabrics were reported to be unstable which can dismiss their functionality such as anti-
bacterial. As fabrics are crucial to resist any possible infection or disease, we developed
conductive PANI fabrics with enhanced surface durability properties through a thermal
treatment method. In this work, the surface of the fabrics was formulated to have a better
adhesion of PANI as anti-bacterial agents and work as bacterial repellence. This was done by
varying the thermal conditions during the treatment of fabrics with PANI solution. We found a
suitable temperature to treat the fabrics by PANI that provides a durable and stable
functionality when in use. Here, a great surface of conductive fabrics has been tuned to fight
against the bacterial activity. By principle, the introduction of acid dopant in PANI fabrics
embarks its conductive and anti-bacterial properties. During the exposure of the developed
conductive fabrics to bacterial and pathogen, the acid leaches out from the PANI fabrics and
inhibit the bacterial colonization. We conclude that the understanding of the surface durability
of PANI fabrics is the key to control the discharging of acid from PANI fabrics, provided a
proper thermal treatment is applied. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first fabric with
enhanced durability properties that can work as anti-bacterial agents. Collectively, the thermal
treatment method that we utilize in this project has improved the durability properties of the
fabrics up to 10% of its performance.

ABSTRACT
Foreign Object Debris (FOD) involves any material located in an improper location that can
harm / give a negative impact as a result of being at that site. By looking at statistics released
by PLUS Malaysia Bhd. (PLUS), a total of 777 number of recorded road accidents were
reported, caused by the FOD. Of the total, 46.1 per cent were tire debris, steel (18.4 per cent),
wood (11.9 per cent) and the rest are other objects such as vehicle components and plastic
items. The recorded number of cases are worrying and expected to keep on increasing over
the years, if there’s no action or measure taken periodically. By implementing the
advancement of technology, a new system can be developed in the effort in reducing the
worrying number of accidents. It will be a complete loop of system that integrated multiple
sensors, controllers and a complex computer coding that can detect any suspicious or
unwanted objects on the highway. Once the objects have been detected by the system, it will
give a warning or indication to the maintenance personal on the possible danger that can
happen in that specific location of the road. This project carries three objectives which are to
reduce the headcount for the manpower needed on the ground for inspection purposes,
simplify and shorten the procedure needed for highway inspection and reduce the probability
of road accidents due to FOD. By developing this project, road consumer all around the world
will have the most benefits since the safety can be guaranteed. Any spillage on the highway
will be detected first and will be removed prior to traffic movement and there will be less
accident that will be recorded because of the decrement number of FOD in the highway.

ABSTRACT
In any kitchen, a pastry bag is an essential piece of cooking equipment. It is often used for a
variety of things, from decorating cakes to making cookies and a variety of other sweet and
savory dishes. It is very handy equipment. However, managing the pastry bag could be
disastrous because filling the pastry bag is a difficult labor even for culinary expert. Regardless
of how many different types of pastry bags are available, Regardless of how many different
types of pastry bags are available in the market, none of them can prevent such a calamity.
As a result, a rounded bendable silicone pastry bag was developed to handle the few defects
that a standard pastry bag produces. This pastry bag is composed of silicone rubber that can
handle hot or cold temperatures for easy squeezing and anti-explosion, and it comes with a
coupler that accommodates any tip or nozzle of any size. Most significantly, it has a flexible
lock that can lock and keep it from overflowing, as well as a scrapper that can scrape any
contents.The advantage of this tool is it is both environmentally beneficial and functional as a
long-term item because it is washable and reusable. With the help of this proposed equipment,
kitchen users can expect less messy conditions and less time spent in the kitchen and
ultimately it will become a quintessential item that every cook must have.

ABSTRACT
Because of the epidemic, much learning has shifted to online distance learning, including
culinary arts subjects that require a lot of hands-on experience yet must be taught via online
video or live demonstrations. Despite advances in technology that allow all learning to be
properly taught through beautiful online video education, the subject's nature need sensory
whimsy. As a result, a book is offered to supplement the deficiencies of online learning. This
is not your typical professional culinary book, since it has not only images and information, but
also scents for each ingredient depicted on the pages. This can be achieved by using the
microencapsulated technology where the scent is encapsulated in a fragrant-producing
chemical on paper surfaces of the book where when you brush the surface of the selected
photographs, the aroma will be released. For example, if the picture is of curry leaves, the
scent of curry leaves will be emitted when you rub on the picture. The proposed idea will help
both the teachers and students alike on culinary guidance and also help sustaining the usage
of books.

ABSTRACT
An FBG-based inclinometer that is both practical and compact has been designed,
manufactured, and evaluated. Four FBGs were used in this inclinometer to ensure biaxial
measurements. The experimental findings demonstrated a good degree of linearity in the
response of not only each FBG throughout a range of inclination angles ranging from 0° to 90°
(with an average sensitivity of 0.01nm per inclination degree), but also of the system as a
whole. The inclinometer has also been intended to function across a wide temperature range,
such as that encountered in the field, by adding a temperature compensation capability
(through a strain-insensitive FBG with a temperature compensation factor of 0.011nm/°C).
The inclinometer can measure not just biaxial response, but also at angles between the
inclination axis, allowing for a more accurate inclination measurement. The device is compact
and affordable to manufacture, and it is intended for usage outside of the laboratory. Thus,
the inclinometer's capacity to function in two axes at severe temperatures (-25°C to 80°C)
brings new prospective uses in civil engineering, particularly slope and structural health
monitoring.

ABSTRACT
Globe + is focusing on reducing Carbon Dioxide on earth by changing it into Oxygen. The idea
of creating Globe + came when I realised that the climate temperature in Malaysia is reaching
37 degree celsius. I make my own study on what cause the climate change that leads to global
heat. One of the factor is the release of CO2 due to human activity in burning fossil fuels such
as oil, gas and coal. The concept of Globe + is very easy which it using solid oxide electrolysis
to break the CO2 molecule into base molecule which is Carbon Monoxide and Oxygen.
Globe + is a life saver. As we may know, too much of CO2 can cause the greenhouse effect.
Tree planting is not the best solution because plant consume H2O and converts H2O to O2.
Therefore, I believe Globe+ would be able to resolve this issue since it changes CO2 into O2.
Globe + also cleans the surrounding air it is equipped with HEPA Filter. Globe + runs using
solar and kinetic energy, hence a fully environmental friendly piece of equipment.
As Globe + is a small in foot-print and generate its’ energy, the government could potentially
encourage the usage of Globe + in the effort to reduce CO2 emission by introducing attractive
incentive to households, such as reduction or discount in tax payment or energy consumption
for any households that are using Globe +.
This method is a very good strategy to promote awareness among the people about
environmental situation.

ABSTRACT
Maintaining and keeping a track of a huge collection of equipment in a laboratory can be time-
consuming when done manually. The consequences of misplacing and missing an equipment
can be disastrous and could lead to hundred of thousand ringgit of financial losses. Manual
process of collecting info of every equipment requires many employee hours and is at risk of
negligence. The use of software-based management is needed to better organize the
equipment in the Lab. ALIA is a cloud-based QR code scanning software which is connected
to the cloud to access equipment in the lab and tracking it uses. The equipment info and its
location can be conveniently accessed by using mobile applications via QR codes
scanning.Users are able to scan barcodes when accessing specific equipment datasheets
and manuals from inventory. Every equipment location and usage log can be tracked easily
and quickly by using this app. Every piece of equipment can be accessed easily from and into
the database in real time on android mobile. The equipment collection data can be adjusted
easily from the database and would remain in place without having to have any coding
knowledge thus, making the app very flexible and convenient to use.

ABSTRACT
Optical fiber amplifiers and lasers are key components in current global telecommunication
networks, operating at the more common C-band region. However, the current optical
communication network utilize C-band has now reached saturation point. Therefore, the
bandwidth needs to be extended to the shorter S-band region (1.46 µm – 1.53 µm) to cater
for increasing bandwidth demands. The development of such fiber system can be realized by
utilizing an optical modulator. In this project, we have successfully developed the S-band fiber
laser system by employing thulium-doped fluoride fiber as a gain medium and reduced
graphene oxide/silver (rGO/Ag) nanocomposite as the optical modulator. The used of rGO/Ag
film as optical modulator has been one of the added value in this developed system due to its
ease of integration and compactness than that of the bulky modulator. Moreover, this laser
system is particularly sought after for their capability to generate the desired pulses in a
compact, cost-effective and robust platform. Apart from optical communication application, the
proposed laser system can be applied in wide ranging applications such as in medicine, likely
for medical diagnostics and surgery, material processing as well as gas sensing. Our
developed compact S-band fiber laser system can open up new commercialization of fiber
laser that is made in Malaysia to be standing in line with the names of world-renowned laser
makers from Japan, Germany, Russia and the USA.

ABSTRACT
During recent global crisis due to the COVID-19, life around the globe has been forced to
rapidly change on how they work, and agriculture is no different. Farmers are used to adapting
in various circumstances, whether it’s droughts, floods or infestations of pests. Overcoming
unpredictable hurdles goes with the job, but the pandemic is bringing a range of new
challenges to the farmer and local food supply chain. Closure of public place, supermarket
and restaurants has a big impact to every single part of food supply chain in our local market.
Movement Control Order (MCO) implemented by the government has caused low
consumption and over supply of fresh food and contributed to huge waste in agriculture
products. A simple innovation was created by a group of UMS PKPP student by converting
agriculture waste into a eco-friendly candle called Charm Dal-light. Agriculture products such
as avocado, beans, corns, and high fat content vegetables were used to extract vegetable’s
fat by a cold press process. Extracted vegetable fat was then mixed with small amount of
paraffin and will go through heating and cooling process in order to formation of candle wax
in a recycled glass jar. By comparing to a normal candle which only can lights up to 7-hours,
this candle is able to withstand until 100-hours. This candle is simple to process and affordable
which could also help the rural area folks to get lights source during night time meanwhile
utilizing their agriculture waste. This could also help the local farmers and young entrepreneurs
to commercialize the product in the country which facing the same situation thus benefiting
and creating a new source of income to our local people.
