1.0 INTRODUCTION
The success and efficacy of education are directly tied to the teacher's
knowledge, conscience, and sense of duty as an educator in addition to possessing the
inseparable intellectual and personal attributes of a teacher.Since teachers serve as role
models and examples for their students, fellow educators, and the community, this is
how they should be effective educators. Though, in contrast to earlier times, when
teachers were frequently hailed and commended as honorable individuals by students,
parents, and the community, the burden of teaching in today era of globalization is
growing and requires instructors to have patience and responsibility in upholding their
trust as educators. However, in the modern educational system, parents of students
denigrate instructors by training their children in a manner that prevents teachers from
correcting, reprimanding, or punishing pupils for misbehaving or failing to complete
assigned work. This results in a number of difficulties and barriers for educators,
particularly instructors, in fulfilling their duty to instruct students.
The biggest obstacle facing educators, particularly teachers, is keeping up with
emerging technology innovations that require them to become proficient in online
learning environments like Zoom, Google Meet, and others. Since the Covid-19
pandemic in 2019, when community mobility was restricted and educators were
compelled to stay at home to stop the virus's spread, this has become the norm for
educators and is no longer an uncommon situation that hinders learning. When given
assignments by their teachers, students must study independently without the presence
of teachers. They must also study independently in order to finish the school's allotted
time to complete the learning syllabus, which forces them to study under the
supervision of their parents alone. Unfortunately, some parents are unable to spend as
much time with their children as they would like to ensure that their education is
uninterrupted because they must leave for work. Because a teacher and student may
communicate and learn online, the Malaysian Ministry of Education decided to
implement a visual learning approach that allows for flexible scheduling and on-site
instruction. In order to incorporate technology into the teaching and learning process,
make learning more dynamic, and make the most of the digital resources that are out
there, a teacher must also become proficient in this field.
Any disciplinary act that has been imposed without any valid reason or with false
intent comes under the category of bad discipline. Even good discipline when carried
out too forcefully so that it gets stressful and mentally disturbing for someone could be
categorized as a bad discipline. Discipline problem is a phenomenon in every school
because the students come from different socioeconomic backgrounds, level of
cognitive, and socio emotion. The development of the community also influences the
discipline problem in school. Therefore, the foremost duty of the school is to teach
discipline to their students as discipline is the key point of all success. The students
should conduct in a disciplined manner. They should obey the rules and regulations of
the school directions which are given by their teachers. Besides that they also should
make a regular habit in their day-to-day work because regularity is also a condition for
discipline.
Nowadays, the discipline problems become uncontrollable and complex not only
in secondary schools but in primary schools too. In primary schools the students did not
have the intention to study. They go to school because of their parent's expectations,
thus they do not concentrate on their studies. Some of the students like to attend
school and some groups of students come to school to pass time without doing their
homework. Some groups of students ignore teachers instructions and are rude with the
teacher. Besides that, the students also are violent with their classmates. For instance,
they bully other students without realizing the consequences afterwards.
Indiscipline makes students lose focus on educational goals which are achieved
through hard-work, time management, respect for others and self determination. This
implies that disciplined pupils are likely to remain focused on their educational goals
and aspirations, manage their time well, work harder in academics, and show
determination to succeed academically. This is probably because disciplined pupils are
less likely to be involved in disciplinary cases which may divert their attention from
academic work. pupils are more likely to be psychologically settled and ready for
academic work. This enhances their striving for academic success and eventually
boosts their academic performance. This suggests that disciplined pupils may be more
appreciated and accepted by teachers, by their peers at school and by parents and other
relatives at home. The appreciation and acceptance may make the pupils develop a
positive self concept which may then enhance pupils' achievement motivation.
Teachers who work in the interior, especially in Sabah and Sarawak have a big task
that needs to be done. These teachers are dealing with certain ethnic groups, who have
less interaction between ethnic groups due to geographic factors and their respective
ethnic cultures. The integration process needs to be nurtured indirectly because there is
almost no ethnic mixing in the school. Teachers face challenges especially if the
teachers are not from the ethnic group. In addition, the issue of teachers who refuse
outside the city despite being aware of the responsibility and role of the teaching
profession, it is not an agreement for graduates of teaching institutions to accept offers
to teach in remote areas. In addition to the fact that the school is very far away, most of
them find it difficult to accept if they are sent outside the area due to limited facilities. In
addition to the problem of facilities, the safety of the teachers is also disputed when
they are in the countryside. Because of that, there are teachers who are willing to bother
and change their profession rather than being sent far inland. However, not all teachers
think like that, those who carry out their responsibilities and roles as educators of the
nation's children will accept the offer to teach even if they have to leave their families
and live in the city.
Furthermore, some rural areas do not have clinic facilities. This makes it difficult
for teachers to get treatment and buy medicine. Only bring a supply of medicine bought
at the pharmacy. If you want to go to the clinic, it will take a long time. Unless the health
condition is serious, then you have to go to the city to get treatment.
