“…As the ages of the child participants ranged from five to twelve years, the guided survey tool needed to be brief and simple to accommodate all ages. A three-question survey was developed with two questions using an emotion scale of smiley faces as reported by previous studies [ 26 , 27 ] ( Figure 1 ). All but one child participant completed the program survey (n=30) over the three programs offered during the second year.…”

Background: Public libraries serve as community centers for accessing free, trustworthy health information. As such, they provide an ideal setting to teach the local community about health and health literacy, particularly during public health crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. Since 2018, an outreach partnership between an academic medical library and public library has developed, delivered, and continuously evaluated a health education program targeting public library users. Case Presentation: Health education activities were integrated into three existing public library programs: adult workshops, child and family programming, and circulating family activity kits. Prior to COVID-19, events were held at the public library, which then pivoted online during the pandemic. An interprofessional team approach combined the expertise of academic medical and public librarians, medical school faculty and staff, and medical students in developing the educational programs. Twelve in-person and five virtual programs were offered, and five circulating health education family kits were launched. Activities were assessed using program evaluation surveys of the adult and children’s programs and circulation statistics of the kits. Conclusions: This case report showcases the lessons learned from implementing a longitudinal outreach partnership between an academic medical library and public library before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. The interprofessional team approach and flexibility in program design and delivery in both the in-person and virtual environments proved critical to the success of the partnership. This partnership could serve as a model for other libraries interested in pursuing interprofessional collaborations in educating local communities on healthy behavior and health information–seeking practices.

“…(2021) comment that creative participatory research methods such as use of art are frequently considered “child-friendly”. Drawings are frequently used as a way to engage children in research (Günindi, 2015; Massey, 2022; Ogina and Nieuwenhuis, 2010; O'Connell, 2013). For example, Massey (2022) explored children's attitudes to mathematics, inviting participants aged eight and nine to draw emojis to communicate how they felt about this subject.…”

PurposeSignificant advances have been made in using applied methodological approaches. These approaches facilitate critical and creative ways to generate new knowledge, encouraging researchers to explore novel research questions which could not be sufficiently addressed using traditional “branded” methodologies. It is important that, in addition to design, researchers consider the most appropriate methods to collect data. The purpose of this paper is to explore the use of the draw and tell method in the context of an interpretive descriptive study.Design/methodology/approachGiven the challenges associated with eliciting responses from adolescent populations, in addition to the use of a semi-structured interview guide, the authors encouraged adolescent participants to produce drawings as part of an interpretive descriptive study.FindingsDespite the fact that drawings are seldom used with adolescents during research interviews, the authors found this method promoted conversation and facilitated deep exploration into adolescents' perspectives.Originality/valueThe authors argue that this creative approach to data collection should be embraced by researchers engaging in applied methodological research, particularly with participants who may be challenging to engage. Drawings, although seldom used with adolescent research participants, can stimulate engagement and facilitate conversations.

“…Selain itu, Skala Likert Beremoji (Emoji Likert Scale) digunakan untuk menambahbaikkan soal selidik ini. Hal ini kerana skala tersebut lebih sesuai, lebih mudah difahami, dan dapat menarik perhatian responden yang terdiri daripada kalangan murid sekolah rendah (Messy, 2021).…”

Motivasi adalah antara elemen penting yang memberi kesan ke atas pencapaian Matematik murid. Justeru, pencapaian Matematik murid di Malaysia masih kurang bersaing di persada antarabangsa. Satu kajian kuantitatif dijalankan untuk mengenal pasti tahap pencapaian murid dan tahap motivasi murid. Hubungan antara kedua-dua pemboleh ubah ini turut dilihat. Teknik pensampelan rawak digunakan untuk penentuan bilangan responden dalam kajian. Borang soal selidik diagihkan kepada 250 murid sekolah rendah dari sebuah daerah di Negeri Sembilan. Hasil kajian ini menunjukkan tahap pencapaian matematik responden masih perlu dipertingkatkan, manakala tahap motivasi responden berada pada tahap yang sederhana tinggi (min = 3.14; s.p = 0.745). Didapati hubungan antara motivasi murid dan tahap pencapaian dalam mata pelajaran Matematik adalah lemah tetapi signifikan, r(250) = 0.299, p = .000 (p < 0.01). Kajian ini memberikan implikasi kepada pihak sekolah dan para pendidik untuk meningkatkan motivasi murid dalam menguasai mata pelajaran Matematik. Hal ini penting supaya memastikan langkah intervensi dapat diambil oleh pihak berkenaan dari peringkat yang lebih awal untuk meningkatkan tahap motivasi murid dimana motivasi Matematik perlu dibina dari peringkat kanak-kanak.
