This study aims to examine a sports climbing curriculum and its promotion and effects on college students in Jiangxi China. It also fills the gap of the existence of an unstructured programme and discusses how a programme of such nature could be beneficial to the student’s health, both physically and psychologically. The study provides frameworks based on Self-Determination Theory, Social Learning Theory, and the Transtheoretical Model of Behavior Change dealing with intrinsically motivated learning, acquisition of necessary skills and community support within the context of the school. It has written literature on the curriculum, having aspects like safety measures and notions such as VR and AR. Hattie and Timperley therefore present a framework of how to plan curriculum and instruction as well as piloting and implementation process that places safe learning as well as inclusion of all students as well as the evaluation measures at the heart of the task. Finally, Climbing Activities should be incorporated into college physical education so that students attain their myriad benefits and educational performance in Jiangxi is boosted.

In the context of rapid technological change and the pressing need for sustainable development, the role of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) has gained increasing importance. However, the specific contributions of TVET programs to the sustainability of societal development, particularly among technical secondary students in Kuala Lumpur, remain underexplored. This study explores the relationship between the importance of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programs and their contributions to the sustainability of society's development among secondary students in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The objectives include assessing the importance and contributions of TVET for technical secondary students, determining the level of sustainability in TVET, and establishing the relationship between the importance of TVET programs and their contributions to societal development. This quantitative survey involved 105 students from Sekolah Menengah Teknik Kuala Lumpur. The instrument was adapted from (Igberaharha, 2021; Mahaputra, 2017; Hamdan et al., 2020). The study reveals a statistically significant correlation with the acceptance of perceptions, as the p-value is less than 0.001. In addition, the coefficient associated with this correlation is 0.532, indicating that the observed relationship has a moderate positive effect size. The findings underscore the importance of understanding and positively influencing students' perceptions to enhance the effectiveness and impact of TVET programs in fostering sustainable societal development.

This study examines the incorporation of such aspects of China’s culture into piano education in Jinan, China, and discussions and analysis of their meaning and importance. In this case, the study points out that, there is a need to maintain and develop Chinese culture in relation to music education; this means that Chinese traditional music Chinese musical instruments and performance and aesthetic features should be included in the curriculum. It highlights the effectiveness of embedding in a music education development various methodologies of music in learning, practising, listening and analysis and ethnomusicology as a way of obtaining a thorough knowledge of music. Also, the study has revealed that there is a critical need to develop a curriculum to guide the teaching and learning of piano, particularly because the curricula need to be systematic and coherent in order to address students’ technical and musicianship skills and knowledge in music theory. The research objectives are achieved using thematic analysis of the literature, with emerging themes including cultural assimilation and change within music education, integration of diverse fields, and the curriculum. These issues prolong the importance of cultural diversity, integration of different approaches to teaching, and the development of extensive curricula to improve piano learning. Taken together, it is recommended that a Cultural-Sexual-Orchestration-Pedagogy view should be integrated to support the accomplishment of educational objectives and processes in music learning and teaching.

This paper analyzes the narrative strategies of the biographical film “The Grandmaster” from the perspective of social identity theory, exploring the dynamic transformation of identity and social identity among characters like Ip Man. Using Turner's self-categorization theory, the study reveals how the film employs multiple perspectives, non-linear narrative, and complex group relations to depict characters' self-categorization and identity processes in different contexts. The findings indicate that “The Grandmaster” not only skillfully portrays Ip Man's multiple identities through its sophisticated narrative techniques but also highlights the tension between cultural heritage and personal growth. This research aims to provide a new theoretical framework for the study of narrative in biographical films and to deepen the understanding of social identity in cultural texts.

Training is one of the essential needs to improve employee performance. In Malaysia, the Public Service Department (PSD), better known as Jabatan Perkhidmatan Awam (JPA), is responsible for crafting policies or circulars regarding the need for civil servants to be trained. Currently, training for civil servants is still based on Pekeliling Perkhidmatan Bilangan 6 Tahun 2005 – Dasar Latihan Sumber Manusia Sektor Awam. Nonetheless, the circular is considered old and needs revisions to ensure the training continuity follows the current demands in civil services. This paper presents an analysis of the learning approach adopted by Public Administrative and Diplomatic officers in Malaysia. The research has three (3) objectives: (i) How do learners view formal learning? (ii) How do learners view non-formal learning? and (iii) How do learners view informal learning? This study uses a quantitative approach, collecting data via a quantitative survey. This research involved 412 respondents who are Public Administrative and Diplomatic officers in Malaysia. Data were analysed using SPSS, proving that all learning approach components have high mean values. The result shows that the respondents agreed collectively that all the components are essential and valuable for them in the learning process. The findings of the study are aimed at improving the learning approaches towards adult learners, especially in the civil service in Malaysia.
培训是提高员工绩效的基本需求之一。在马来西亚，公共服务部（PSD）（又称 Jabatan Perkhidmatan Awam（JPA））负责制定有关公务员培训需求的政策或通告。目前，公务员培训仍以《2005 年第 6 期公务员培训--Dasar Latihan Sumber Manusia Sektor Awam》（Pekeliling Perkhidmatan Bilangan 6 Tahun 2005 - Dasar Latihan Sumber Manusia Sektor Awam）为基础。尽管如此，该通知被认为已经过时，需要进行修订，以确保培训的连续性符合当前的公务员需求。本文分析了马来西亚公共行政和外交官员所采用的学习方法。研究有三（3）个目标：（i）学员如何看待正规学习？(ii) 学习者如何看待非正规学习？ (iii) 学习者如何看待非正式学习？本研究采用定量方法，通过定量调查收集数据。这项研究涉及 412 名受访者，他们都是马来西亚的公共行政和外交官员。使用 SPSS 对数据进行了分析，结果表明，所有学习方法组成部分的平均值都很高。结果表明，受访者一致认为，在学习过程中，所有组成部分对他们来说都是必不可少和有价值的。研究结果旨在改进针对成人学习者，特别是马来西亚公务员的学习方法。

This paper employs Laura Mulvey's feminist theory to analyze the feminist elements in the Hollywood Kung Fu film "Everything Everywhere All at Once." Utilizing semi-structured interviews and narrative analysis, it reveals how the film's female characters demonstrate strength and independence. This reflects changes in female self-identity in modern society and challenges traditional gender norms. The research finds that the film's gender depiction aligns with feminist film theory, indicating Hollywood's acceptance of a feminist perspective. This marks progress in both gender portrayal and cultural cognition. Finally, the research emphasizes the need for future studies to explore the intersection of multiculturalism and gender perspectives in Hollywood films to further develop feminist film theory.

Vocabulary knowledge is crucial for learners of English as a Foreign Language (EFL), yet mastering it presents significant challenges. Understanding how to effectively enhance vocabulary acquisition is essential due to its fundamental role in language proficiency. While numerous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of mobile learning for enhancing both receptive vocabulary knowledge (RVK) and productive vocabulary knowledge (PVK), there is a lack of research investigating the relationship between vocabulary acquisition in receptive and productive and learner motivation within a mobile learning context. The current research aims to investigate the effect of using a mobile dictionary app on English vocabulary learning among undergraduates with varying levels of motivation. This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest and posttest. One freshman class, consisting of 32 participants, was involved in the study. The Intrinsic/Extrinsic Motivation Scale of English Learning (I/EMSEL) and Core English Vocabulary (CEV) Test were used as instruments for data collection. Participants were divided into three groups based on their motivational levels: high, medium, and low. The learning effects of these groups were measured using pre-test and post-test assessments during a 12-week intervention. Data analysis was conducted using paired sample T-tests and one-way ANOVA. The results indicated that the mobile dictionary app effectively promotes vocabulary knowledge acquisition in both receptive vocabulary knowledge (RVK) and productive vocabulary knowledge (PVK) across different motivational levels. However, students with high motivation showed significantly greater improvements compared to those with medium and low motivation. These findings suggest that mobile learning tools are more effective for vocabulary acquisition in highly motivated students. Educators should focus on enhancing learner motivation to maximize the benefits of these tools.
词汇知识对英语作为外语（EFL）的学习者至关重要，但掌握词汇却面临巨大挑战。由于词汇在语言能力中的基础性作用，了解如何有效提高词汇习得至关重要。虽然许多研究已经证明了移动学习在提高接受性词汇知识（RVK）和生产性词汇知识（PVK）方面的功效，但还缺乏对移动学习环境下接受性和生产性词汇习得与学习者动机之间关系的研究。本研究旨在调查使用移动词典应用程序对不同学习动机水平的本科生英语词汇学习的影响。本研究采用了前测和后测的准实验设计。一个大一班级的 32 名学生参与了研究。数据收集工具是英语学习动机内/外量表（I/EMSEL）和核心英语词汇量表（CEV）。根据参与者的动机水平将其分为三组：高、中、低。在为期 12 周的干预过程中，通过测试前和测试后的评估来衡量这些小组的学习效果。数据分析采用配对样本 T 检验和单因素方差分析。结果表明，在不同动机水平的学生中，手机词典应用程序有效地促进了接受性词汇知识（RVK）和生产性词汇知识（PVK）的学习。然而，与中等和低学习动机的学生相比，高学习动机学生的进步明显更大。这些研究结果表明，移动学习工具对学习动机高的学生的词汇学习更有效。教育工作者应注重提高学习者的学习动机，以最大限度地发挥这些工具的优势。

Mental health issues have become a serious concern in many organizations, where this problem might lead to negative outcomes for both employees and employers. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, untreated mental health problems got worse, which had the worst effect on a person's life and work that could happen. One of the key environments that affect employees' mental health is the workplace. People are becoming more aware of and cognizant of the role that work can play in promoting or impeding mental wellness. The majority of mental health professionals concur that the workplace environment can have a considerable impact on a person's mental and physical well-being, despite the fact that it is difficult to measure the effect of work alone on a person's sense of self, self-esteem, and social recognition. (World Health Organization, Department of Mental Health) The National Health and Morbidity Survey, which was conducted every four years, was the most exhaustive survey ever conducted on a national scale. The main objective of this research is to explore the awareness and factors that influence mental health issues among hospitality employees.
