Abstract

Artikel ini menerangkan hasil penemuan satu soal selidik berkaitan dengan usaha dan sikap para pelajar terhadap pembelajaran mereka. Data telah dikumpul daripada 200 orang pelajar masing-masing daripada Fakulti Alam Bina (FBE) dan Fakulti Bahasa dan Linguistik (FLL), Universiti Malaya. Mereka terdiri daripada pelajar ijazah dasar dan seorang pelajar ijazah tinggi. Keputusan menunjukkan bahawa lebih daripada 85.0% sampel kajian mengambil nota semasa kuliah dijalankan; 31.0% dan 65.0% pelajar daripada FBE dan FLL, masing-masing, membuat persiapan sebelum menghadiri kuliah atau kelas tutorial; 70.0% pelajar dari kedua-dua fakulti tersebut menggunakan kurang daripada 3 jam sehari bagi membuat ulangkaji; ramai pelajar meluangkan masa lapang mereka untuk membaca surat khabar/majalah, menonton televisyen/wayang, dan membeli-belah; pelajar-pelajar Cina berminat belajar bersendirian sementara pelajar-pelajar Melayu dan India berminat belajar secara berkumpulan; lebih daripada 62.0% pelajar meminta bantuan rakan apabila menghadapi kesulitan dalam pembelajaran; pelajar Melayu dan India berminat dalam perbincangan kumpulan sebagai persiapan menghadapi peperiksaan, tetapi pelajar Cina memilih untuk belajar soalan-soalan yang ‘diteka’ atau mengikut tip pensyarah.
