“…According to Furner (2017), to address the issue of anxiety among their students, the inclusion of literature and writing have proven effective (Furner, 2017;Mokhtar, 2017;Mustafa, Tourkia, and Ramadan, 2017;Nair and Hui, 2018;Gumusgul, 2018;Kögce and Aslandag, 2018;Kyrychenko, 2018). It is also suggested that teachers use children's literature to combat anxiety by using these materials in a shared setting to foster connections in a more meaningful ways along with the inclusion of "writing, discussion, and the use of manipulatives as they relate to the story in the children's literature book".…”

In the field of K-12 education, the demand for effective coding education is gradually expanding with various coding tools such as Scratch being popularly used as an effective learning environment. However, an answer to the question of what constitutes appropriate computing concepts for children (e.g. elementary school students) has not been fully answered. In this regard, this study worked to develop computational fairy tales (CFT) for coding beginners and applied it to the elementary school classroom environment in Korea. This CFT was developed by extracting the concepts of computer science through literature analysis, developing a plot/episode and creating a story. The final CFT developed is composed of 15 core computational concepts. 152 elementary students participated in the experiment where students read the CFT and solved related problems over two weeks period. We analyzed the effects of the CFT on the acquisition of basic computing concepts and coding attitudes. The results of the study showed that both the score of computing concept comprehension and attitude was enhanced significantly (p<.001). This study demonstrates the positive educational effects of CFTs in fostering understanding of basic computing concepts before students begin to code with algorithms directly.

“…Yemen has a total land area of 527,970 square kilometres with a population of close to 27 million (Fund, 2015) and Islam is the official religion of the country. Around 98% of Yemenis are Muslims and the remaining 2% are Non-Muslim (Kyrychenko, 2018). Yemen is classified as one of the least developed countries in the region with around 42% of the population living under the poverty line.…”

Purpose of Study: Waqf has played a significant role throughout Islamic history. This has been possible through proper management, investment and financing of various Waqf assets to enhance the socioeconomic development of Muslim societies. In particular, it has contributed significantly to the encouragement of religious practices, improvement of education, health and helping the poor and the needy, creating employment and supporting other socio-economic activities. Methodology: The current study attempted to uncover these challenges facing by Waqf institution in Yemen. Particularly, issues such as management, investment and finance will be emphasized. Results: However, nowadays most of Waqf assets have become idle and no longer serves the needs of the Ummah due to problems, such as poor governance structure and human resource. Few studies have tried to address challenges facing Waqf but unfortunately these studies have been conducted in countries where the governance structure is robust and the quality of human resource is very good. Such models may not be suitable in contexts such as Yemen where Waqf assets are mostly in the form of physical assets such as lands and buildings and the quality of human resource and governance structure are poor.

“…In public administration, integrity refers to employees' honesty and trustworthiness in performing their official duties, avoiding corruption and the misuse of power. Having integrity criteria in every person is important for the employees to maintain their disciplines, follow the rules and regulations of their organisation and to become accountable for their own actions, which can help them to comply and instill values leading to ethical behavior (Aziz et al, 2015, Mwirigi,et.al 2017, Kyrychenko 2018. It is valuable among public sector servants to offer better service to the public.…”

Integrity is one of the moral principles related to moral uprightness. Recently, there are a lot of issues discussed regarding the integrity in public sector administration especially in public sector. Currently governance in public administration has been exposed to public criticism due to the governance failure, fraud, corruption and poor internal control. The purpose of the study is to examine the relationship between factors of good governance and the practice of integrity in academic institution. The factors of good governance include ethical leadership, financial resources and asset management. The study was carried out by using questionnaire and simple random sampling was chosen. The questionnaire survey was distributed to 98 academics from two academic institutions in Malaysia. Such sample was chosen since this study was focused on the academic’s perspective on integrity practice in academic institutions and none of the research has been done in term of good governance and integrity in academic institutions Malaysia. This study found that all three factors of good governance which are ethical leadership, financial resources and asset management have significant relationship on integrity practice in academic institution. The findings of this study can assist academic institutions in Malaysia to improve their governance system and also code of ethics in their organization. In order to improve future studies, it is recommended that the data collection made to be more extensive. This can help in observing the variation of practice of good governance and integrity in academic institutions.
