| Summary: | This paper investigates the role of affective domain in teacher and science education from an Islamic perspective.
Affective domain constitutes an integral part of the general framework and theories of teacher and science
education; in designing the philosophy and objectives of teacher and science education, emphasis is placed on its
importance and role in the education of both teachers and learners in science, engineering and ICT based
disciplines. However, in practice, there is often some confusion as to what and how the affective domain
component should be envisioned, implemented, and taught. This paper advances the Islamic framework for the
development of a fundamental and comprehensive approach to the integration and implementation of affective
domain in teacher and science education. It analyses the articulation of values, ethics, worldview, belief system
and affective aspects of the teacher’s and the learner’s personality. The paper concludes that the role of affective
domain in teacher and science education from an Islamic perspective is not only important but also provides an
integrated guiding approach to the development of the cognitive, psychomotor and behavioral dimensions of the
learner.
Kertas ini menyelidik tentang peranan domain afektif dalam pendidikan perguruan dan sains daripada perspektif
Islam. Tidak dapat dinafikan bahawa domain afektif berperanan penting dalam kerangka umum dan teori ilmu
penguruan dan sains. Dalam menggubal falsafah dan objektif ilmu perguruan dan pendidikan sains, domain
afektif merupakan aspek penting dalam pendidikan bagi guru dan pelajar dalam disiplin yang berasaskan sains,
kejuruteraan dan teknologi komunikasi dan informasi. Walaupun teori dalam ilmu perguruan dan pendidikan sains
menyatakan kepentingan dan peranan domain afektif dalam disiplin yang berasaskan sains dan kejuruteraan,
didapati bahawa ada kekeliruan tentang apa dan bagaimana komponen domain afektif harus digambarkan, diajar
dan dilaksanakan dalam disiplin ilmu tersebut. Hal ini berlaku kerana hakikat bahawa pandangan saintifik dan
falsafah positivisme dalam ilmu pengetahuan dan pendidikan masih menguasai arena penjanaan ilmu, penyebaran,
pemindahan dan aplikasi. Justeru, kertas ini mengutarakan kerangka Islam dalam pembangunan satu pendekatan
yang komprehensif dan jitu bagi penyepaduan dan pelaksanaan domain afektif dalam pendidikan perguruan dan
sains. Jadi, aspek nilai, etika, pandangan hidup, sistem kepercayaan dan afektif bagi personaliti seorang guru dan
pelajar akan dianalisis. Kertas ini merumuskan bahawa
peranan domain afektif dalam pendidikan guru dan sains
daripada perspektif Islam bukan sahaja penting malah
menyediakan pendekatan panduan bersepadu kepada
pembangunan kognitif, psikomotor dan dimensi tingkah
laku pelajar. |
