“…This study found that universities and lecturers are aware of the concept and benefits of IR4.0 yet the traditional curricular structure practices hindered the adoption of IR4.0 due to the difficulties of lecturers in adjusting to new technologies and also the lack of internet connectivity. This can be supported by [28] who revealed that new technologies and concepts make it hard for educators to try to adapt and adopt them into their teaching and learning processes. On the other hand, students…”

“…The sampling model for this research was based on the Krejcie and Morgan Model (1970) to estimate how many sets of questionnaires needed to be distributed and showed that the total sample size needed for this research should be between 92 and 97. Questionnaire surveys were used for this research as it is a common method that is being used to gather data from large sampling related to this topic [25] [26] [27] [28]. For this research, data analysis using descriptive statistics was carried out using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS).…”

“…The highest-ranking is 'The lack of IR4.0 related facilities in University such as 3D Printer and VR head-mounted display' with a mean of 4.40. According to [28], due to the lack of necessary facilities and technical supports, educators are force to have negative perceptions towards the implementation of new concepts or technology. Supported by [31], IR4.0 requires the university to have advanced infrastructure and facilities to support the digital transformation of IR4.0.…”

There have been four major Industrial Revolutions that have developed human lifestyles. Currently, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, (IR 4.0), is taking place in major industries with current students and graduates requiring new talents and skills to become a future-proof workforce. However, current tertiary education is not yet fully equipped to deal with IR4.0 concepts. This results in the low awareness of IR4.0 among students and graduates where they are not yet ready to enter an IR4.0 workspace. This is especially so in construction management education. Hence, the aim of this research is to improve existing construction engineering education by including IR4.0. This research is based on data collected from a survey by questionnaire responses from construction management undergraduate and postgraduate students at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Shah Alam. The findings show that these construction management students agreed that challenges such as the traditional construction management curricular structure and the lack of IR4.0 facilities hindered the implementation of IR4.0 in construction management education. Therefore, recommendations such as the collaboration of industry experts with universities and students to enable the adoption of IR4.0 into project-based learning were discussed. In conclusion, this study hopes to help both universities and students to be prepared for the integration of and benefits from, implementing IR4.0 in construction management education.

“…The important aspects of IR4.0 such as internet of things (IOT), big data, artificial intelligence, and cognitive computing should be critically employed in the teaching and learning process. Lai et al (2020) argued that knowledge, attitude, and the abilities of educators are essential in the application of IR4.0 in the teaching and learning process. This generates a requirement for education sectors to equip future educators with thorough awareness of IR4.0 and their importance in the industry.…”

Industrial Revolution (IR) 4.0 refers to the integration of technology within a particular industry, which encompasses big data, data analytics, cloud computing, robots, artificial intelligence, as well as Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. This study aims to assess the understanding of trainee counsellors of IR4.0 future skills, and to investigate how trainee counsellors improve their overall understanding of IR4.0 and its readiness. The qualitative research design employed in this study involved semi-structured interviews. Four trainee counsellors were chosen through convenient sampling and interviewed in 15-20 minute sessions. The findings indicate that trainee counsellors have a strong grasp of IR4.0. The respondents acknowledged, however, that their comprehension of IR4.0 in connection with future counselling professions is only modest, owing to the institution’s lack of formal educational exposure. Consequently, the respondents’ readiness to face IR4.0 is dangerously low, with the majority expressing worry towards their adaptability in future career development. Finally, the study concluded that educational institutions are vital in teaching and equipping students to confront the global challenges presented by IR4.0. This study is important because it aids researchers to analyse information on the understanding, readiness, and effect of IR4.0 on future skills among trainee counsellors. Additionally, it helps educational institutions in recognising the essential role of IR4.0 adoption in teaching and learning, as well as the implementation of the necessary measures to increase the readiness for training counsellors in tackling IR4.0.

“…According to Lai, Chundra and Lee [2], educators" knowledge and awareness of the IR 4.0 context are still unclear. Teachers lack confidence in applying IR 4.0 in teaching and still face difficulties in adapting new education reforms.…”

This study investigates mathematics teachers’ readiness towards Education 4.0 and their attitude towards the use of technology in teaching mathematics. The study participants included 162 mathematics teachers in Kota Bharu, Kelantan. A quantitative approach with a questionnaire was employed in this study. Data collected were analysed by using descriptive and t-tests and analysis of variance using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 27. The overall results for mathematics teachers’ readiness towards Education 4.0 lead to uncertainty, which indicates that teachers are still not prepared and lack knowledge about Education 4.0. When grouped according to age, gender and grade level taught, the results show that there is no significant difference between teachers’ readiness towards Education 4.0. Meanwhile, for attitude, the results reveal that teachers have a positive attitude towards the use of technology in teaching mathematics, regardless of their age, gender or grade level taught. However, it shows a significant difference between male and female teachers’ attitudes. For age and grade level taught, the results show no significant difference between mathematics teachers’ attitudes towards the use of technology in teaching the subject. Therefore, the study recommends that teachers should strengthen their positive attitude towards the use of technology in teaching and learning and that the higher authorities also should participate in providing teachers knowledge on Education 4.0 and helping them adapt to current educational changes.
