Ahmad Bin Esa et al./ Elixir Edu. Tech. 51 (2012) 10957-10960 10957 Introduction National Education System should be able to produce students that are beyond the ability of 3M (reading, writing and arithmetic). Even students with excellent result in academics are not guaranteed that they manage the demands and challenges of globalization of today successfully Education is to provide tutorial not only to student who are illiterate and not able to calculate but also to provide tutorial to students who are blind in information technology (IT), identity, values and courtesy. In the current scenario, the aspirations and the objective of the National Education Policy are being clash with more problems in the erosion of values among students (Ahmad, 2006). These situations cause anxieties because in the process of achieving the globalization of world-class education and development of information systems, there are still younger generations that are impaired. More accurately, we can say that even the students are completed their study, but they are not educated, that is they are knowledgeable and skilful but of no value. Important for educators to applied value into their soul for ensure that educators are systematic, integrity, and excellent work at all the time toward to developing student for good manner with integrity. Value, transparency, accountability and ethical practice is important for society and future. There are certainly that effective education systems are the main support of the Malaysian society with integrity. Therefore, the responsibilities of value among student need to be held with the involvement of all parties. Problem Background The reductions of value, particularly among the students are at the apprehension level (Tiong, 2006). The reduction of value problem has led to the symptoms that are immoral and ethical behavior. Juvenile crimes such as gambling, theft, gangsters, extortion, murder, robbery, illegal racing, burglary, drug abuse and abandonment around us are happen more common. Values are still not satisfied applied among students at the workshop on discipline problems reported by the researchers and a local newspaper. People should apply values in their daily lives and be imitation to students learn during their study at the workshop. However, after going through the learning process, there are students who still have a negative perception of learning in workshops. The percentage of reduction values increase among current student implying that education through the teaching and learning was less absorbed with the values. Some students who were break the rule may cause to management problems during practical work in the workshop. Statement of Problem The patterns of learning in Higher Education Institutions are more challenging and require patience and persistent effort. Students are given the opportunity to determine their own direction and educated to be more independent (Buntat & Sanapi, 2003). Some students have lost their value and replace it with a negative value in their common practice daily lives (Ahmad, 2006). The rapid development, where working parents and lack of love cause young people to a negative tendency. Learning in the learning situation different from learning in the classroom for the workshop is practical and filled with equipment and machinery. Therefore, the practice of high value is required. However, there are some students who not comply with the regulations and this creates a problem in the management of the workshop (Buntat & Sanapi, 2003). This situation illustrates some of the students not accept responsibility to the practice that had been exposed through the learning of values since primary school. Therefore, this research attempts to determine the extent to which the practice of values among students can apply during their practical work in workshops in the polytechnics. Elixir Edu.

ABSTRACT Nowadays, education serves to provide guidance to students who lack in their values, courtesy and politeness. However, good values are still unsatisfactory amongst students in the workshop. There are students who do not adhere to the rules resulting in wastage of workshop materials, and thus causing problems in the workshop management. This research is undertaken to survey the extent of the practice of moral values in a workshop at a polytechnic during teaching and learning sessions. The main instruments used to support the research are questionnaires and observations. A total of 365 students were selected as respondents from two polytechnics, namely Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah and Sultan Zainal Abidin. Four aspects of moral values are measured: cooperation, crafts, physical and mental hygiene and respect. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science Version 16.0 (SPSS 16.0) with the appropriate mean, standard deviation and minimum score t-test. The results revealed that the overall practice of values amongst polytechnic students is high and there were no differences in the practices between the two polytechnics. Therefore, researcher proposed several techniques to ensure students apply value as suggestion model. © 2012 Elixir All rights reserved.
