Low integrity is a challenge for any organization. However, most organizations emphasize integrity without explaining what is required of an individual with high integrity. Exhibiting high integrity is necessary for academics; yet, the level of academic integrity remains unclear. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the integrity level of academicians in a Malaysian public university. This paper shares the findings on the level of integrity of academics based on a questionnaire completed by 213 academicians. Data were collected by survey questionnaire and was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. An overall mean score of 9.45 from a possible 10.0 indicated a high level of integrity among academics. The self-evaluation results by academics also demonstrated that they have attained integrity at a high level for their generic task, teaching and learning, research and publications and service for community with a mean score between 9.36 and 9.49. The value with the highest mean score was for “service to community”, whereas the lowest was for “research and publication”. These findings show that the university has successfully instilled values of integrity among academicians. Nevertheless, the university must continue to enhance academic integrity by exploring religiosity. Using Google Scholar, a literature search identified an Islam-based academic integrity model to explain the quantitative findings. Finally, a mixed method approach and involving all universities in Malaysia are recommended to further the findings of this study.
In China, ideological and political education is currently the hot direction of teaching reform in various colleges and universities, yet the development of appropriate teaching evaluation methods needs to catch up. This study addresses the pressing need for a preliminary investigation into the complex relationships among ideological and political education, the students’ learning satisfaction and teaching quality. This research examines the influence of teaching and ideological and political education quality on students’ satisfactions by designing a set of scales, collecting about 3800 questionnaires. Utilizing Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and qualitative interviews, this study reveals that the teaching quality directly affects students’ learning satisfaction and ideological and political education. Notably, ideological and political education can also affect students’ learning satisfaction. The findings underscore the importance of including ideological and political education assessments in evaluating courses. This research contributes to the ongoing dialogue on effective teaching evaluation methods in the context of evolving educational practices.

In the realm of modern education, the integration of technology has emerged as a powerful catalyst for transforming traditional classrooms into dynamic and engaging learning environments. This paper provides a concise overview of the multifaceted ways in which technology contributes to enhanced classroom engagement.
Recognizing the discipline category of the abstract text is of great significance for automatic text recommendation and knowledge mining. Therefore, this study obtained the abstract text of social science and natural science in the Web of Science 2010-2020, and used the machine learning model SVM and deep learning model TextCNN and SCI-BERT models constructed a discipline classification model. It was found that the SCI-BERT model had the best performance. The precision, recall, and F1 were 86.54%, 86.89%, and 86.71%, respectively, and the F1 is 6.61% and 4.05% higher than SVM and TextCNN. The construction of this model can effectively identify the discipline categories of abstracts, and provide effective support for automatic indexing of subjects.
Even in the late stages of the COVID-19, the physical and psychological trauma caused by the epidemic continues to affect people, particularly university students, whose physical and psychological health is vulnerable to environmental influences. The purpose of this article is to investigate the relationship between learning adaptability and “state” anxiety among university students enrolled during the COVID-19(2020-2022), as well as the role of self-management in mediating this process. The findings reveal a negative association between college students' academic adjustment and their state anxiety, a process that also includes a mediation role for self-management, with subjects in this research being college students enrolled during COVID-19. This study offers a theoretical foundation for investigating the factors influencing anxiety from an operationalized viewpoint, as well as for further effective regulation of university students' mental health and anxiety reduction.
