Publication Muslim-Christian relations in Malaysia: Issues and solutions(Gyandhara International Academic Publications, 2019) ;Mohad A.H. ;Mokhtar R.A.M. ;Sulaiman M. ;Latiff L.A.Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM)Purpose: The issue of Muslim-Christian relations in Malaysia is often in the limelight of the mass media, domestic and foreign. Within recent years, there have been incidents directly related to this topic of discussion. This paper discusses these the issues and challenges faced by the Muslim and Christian communities in Malaysia. Methodology: This is a qualitative study, and the data were collected from library sources such as books, journals, newspapers, periodicals, websites, and detailed interviews with members of the Muslim and Christian faiths. The data was then analysed through a documentary analysis technique. Main Findings: This study found that Muslim-Christian relations often go through ebbs and flows. Generally, incidents involving religious sensitivities are fanned further by the mass media and interested politicians, although these issues are not as serious as reported. These situations then create an uneasy tension between the two communities, thus negatively affecting foster unity in diversity within the plural societies in Malaysia. What should be encouraged as an alternative is dialogue between adherents of different religions for them to know one another, and to promote religious harmony. Implications: In the New Malaysia era, room of dialogue seems to flourish with the inclusive approach of the Pakatan Harapan (PH) government. This is a positive development, which hopefully would be a catalyst to building a Malaysia society united in diversity. � Mohad et al. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Students' acceptance of the titas MOOCs learning module in University Malaysia Sabah(IAEME Publication, 2018) ;Mohd Mokhtar R.A. ;Mohad A.H. ;Sulaiman M. ;Latiff L.A. ;Faculty of Leadership and ManagementUniversiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM)The Islamic Civilisation and Asian Civilisation course or more commonly known as Tamadun Islam and Tamadun Asia (TITAS) is a compulsory course for all students of institutions of higher learning in Malaysia and this includes University Malaysia Sabah (UMS). Therefore this course is among the courses that records a high enrolment of students every semester which has led to an increase in load for the lecturers of this course. Additionally, the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) has launched a blended learning approach in teaching and learning. Hence, in order to streamline the curriculum as well as to lessen the load of the TITAS lecturers, the MOHE has developed the TITAS MOOCs learning module that is spearheaded by University Putra Malaysia (UPM). This paper will analyse the acceptance of the TITAS MOOCs learning module among the UMS students. The study shows that the reception of the UMS students towards the TITAS MOOCs module is positive and there is a high relation between the factors of acceptance, which consist of Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use and Social Influence, with the acceptance of the UMS students which is seen as Voluntary Usage. This research is essential to evaluate the relevance of the TITAS MOOCs module as well as the UMS environment in order to realise this blended learning approach in the TITAS course. � IAEME Publication.
