Emotion Analysis of Art Class Students Based on Machine Learning

Purpose The study's primary objective is to investigate the association between self-efficacy, convenience, perceived usefulness, attitude, and emotions. This paper also sought to comprehend the mediating function of attitude. Methodology / Approach This study utilized a quantitative, cross-sectional design. Using a self-administered questionnaire adapted from previous studies, the data was obtained. 70% of the responses were usable. The study was analyzed using the PLS-SEM and PLS-3.3.9 software packages. Findings The study's findings indicate that attitude has a significant influence on shaping emotions. Furthermore, convenience and perceived utility influence student attitudes toward technology use. Conversely, self-efficacy does not significantly influence students' attitudes. Practical Implications These findings are essential for academicians' future research. These findings are also helpful for the formulation of technology adoption policies for students. Originality This study is one of the very few that examine machine learning in the context of the education industry. (c) 2022 Ani Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved.

Examining State Education Department As Learning Organisation in Next Normal of Educational Management: A Case Study of Perlis State Education Department, Malaysia

Organizations face significant challenges as a result of unforeseen disruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic. It has made people pay attention to how organisations become more innovative, as adapting to these changes is no longer an option but a requirement. This study is aimed at determining the learning organization level among Perlis State Education Official (SEO) and a Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) was used to determine possible differences in the learning organisation practice of the SEO based on demographic factors. A survey was conducted, and 102 Perlis SEOs were selected using the survey method through questionnaire. The results of the descriptive analysis showed that the level of learning organisation was high (M = 4.107, SD = 0.612) and there was no significant difference in the learning organisation practices of SEOs based on position, age, experience, academic qualifications and frequency of participating in courses, workshops or training related to governance, leadership or educational management during the respondent's tenancy at Perlis state education department (SED). This study's findings are useful for Ministry of Education (MOE) Malaysia and SED because they may be used to improve key policies, reform learning organisations, and improve educational management performance. Future research should expand the study sample to explain how other organisations learn across areas or zones in Malaysia. It may also be used to compare data from comparable research in other areas or the public sector and give future insights for nations like Malaysia.

HOMESTAY SERVICE EXPERIENCE FOR TOURIST SATISFACTION AND SUSTAINABILITY AMIDST COVID-19 CHALLENGES

Although tourist homestay experience has been commonly recognized as an important criterion for community-based and eco-friendly destination loyalty, not much is known about the measurement of its service experience. A scientific inquiry into the tourist experience will be an essential differentiation tool for sustainable competitive advantage in this alternative hospitality sector. Our research aims to develop a measure of homestay service experience and to use this measure to investigate the influence of homestay service experience on tourists’ satisfaction and behavioral intentions. Specifically, the HomeServE inventory is established through qualitative and quantitative processes. Focus group interviews and questionnaire survey techniques were employed. A total of 866 usable questionnaires were obtained from the nationwide survey. Reliability and validity analyses were done on the measurement items. Measurement and relationship analyses were done using the confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling. Eight dimensions (32 items) of homestay service experience were identified (i.e., Culture, Guiding Service, Food and Beverage, Environment, Cleanliness, Accommodation, Services, and Accessibility). The measurement and model fit indices were found to be satisfactory. This newly found multi-dimensional construct of tourist service experience is in line with tourist-oriented service management. It was found that service experience has a direct positive effect on tourists’ satisfaction. Managerial and research implications of the measurement were discussed for more effective tourist experience management. © 2022, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak. All rights reserved.
