Penyelesaian Masalah Salah Laku dalam kalangan pelajar

Peranan remaja

* Mencari kawan sebaya (peers) yang betul. Umumnya, remaja banyak menghabiskan masa di sekolah bersama rakan-rakan. Pemilihan rakan sebaya yang betul dapat mengelakkan daripada terpengaruh dengan unsur-unsur yang salah. Rakan yang baik adalah rakan yang mengingatkan kita semasa kita tersalah arah dan laku. Selalunya rakan-rakan terdiri daripada orang yang sebaya dan bersependapat dalam banyak hal. Maka remaja harus berhati-hati dalam memilih rakan.
* Mendapatkan bantuan jika ada masalah. Remaja perlu mendapatkan nasihat daripada orang lain selain rakan sebaya jika menghadapi masalah di rumah atau dengan rakan-rakan. Kebanyakan remaja lebih suka mendiamkan diri dengan masalah mereka ataupun hanya menceritakan kepada rakan sebaya. Akibatnya, kadangkala langkah yang diambil menjadi masalah kepada orang lain kerana tidak selari dengan tuntutan agama dan undang-undang. Berbincang dengan kaunselor atau guru dapat membantu sekiranya ibu bapa dan penjaga tidak memahami masalah remaja.
* Berusaha menjadi contoh yang baik. Sikap ini harus ada pada setiap remaja kerana ia dapat membantu remaja untuk mengawal diri. Sekurang-kurangnya jika tidak boleh menjadi contoh yang baik kepada orang lain, jadilah contoh dalam ahli keluarga sendiri dan juga pada diri sendiri. rasa bersalah sekiranya melakukan kesalahan harus dibayar dengan azam untuk tidak mengulanginya lagi dan tidak berharap orang yang terdekat melakukannya.

Peranan sekolah

* Subjek yang diajar harus ada nilai tambah, iaitu menerapkan nilai-nilai murni dalam setiap kelas. Kelas boleh dijalankan dengan interaktif supaya pelajar lebih berminat untuk datang ke sekolah dan meneruskan kelas. Elemen subjek agama dan sivik seharusnya ada dalam setiap subjek supaya remaja akan terdidik dengan nilai-nilai murni dalam setiap apa yang dipelajarinya.
* Sentiasa berbincang dengan ibu bapa. Guru kelas boleh mengambil langkah yang proaktif dengan menyelidik latar belakang pelajar-pelajar kelasnya dan menghubungi ibu bapa untuk berbincang jika timbul apa-apa masalah yang boleh membawa kepada perlakuan disiplin. Melabel murid jahat bukanlah penyelesaiannya, tetapi guru seharusnya berusaha untuk memahami punca pelajar bertindak sedemikian. Guru kaunseling juga harus ditambah kerana pelajar boleh merujuk kepada mereka di atas apa-apa masalah yang mereka hadapi.

Peranan Keluarga

* Contoh yang baik. Ibu bapa perlu menunjukkan contoh yang baik untuk diteladani. Elakkan pertengkaran di hadapan anak-anak serta perlakuan yang menyebabkan anak-anak berdendam dan tidak berpuas hati. Setiap ibu bapa pastinya menginginkan anak-anak mereka menjadi baik, tetapi ibu bapa seharusnya terlebih dahulu menunjukkan teladan yang baik untuk diikuti. Selain itu ibubapa harus prihatin dengan pergerakan serta rakan anak-anak untuk mengelakkan kejadian yang tidak di ingini berlaku.
* Berusaha memahami keperluan emosi dan jasmani anak-anak. Boleh dikatakan masalah banyak berpunca daripada masalah dalaman iaitu masalah keperluan psikologi. Justeru itu adalah wajar bagi ibu bapa untuk mempelajari keperluan psikologi anak-anak dan cara-cara menangani setiap isu. Ibu bapa juga harus berperanan memperlengkapkan anak-anak dengan ilmu agama dan kekuatan spiritual supaya lebih kuat berdepan dengan cabaran-cabaran masa kini.

Peranan masyarakat dan media

* Masyarakat juga harus berperanan dalam hal ini. Membantu remaja-remaja yang bermasalah seharusnya bermula dengan memahami situasi keluarga remaja berkenaan. Jiran-jiran misalnya boleh membantu dalam mengenal pasti remaja yang bermasalah dan cuba membawa mereka ke jalan yang baik melalui teguran yang berhemah. Media massa juga dapat membantu dari segi pengisian rancangan di televisyen, radio dan juga di suratkhabar. Program-program yang disediakan seharusnya lebih berinformatif dan menjana pemikiran remaja.
KesimpulanDalam hal ini, semua pihak harus menanganinya secara kolektif dan bijaksana. Aliran fahaman remaja berubah dari zaman ke zaman dan cara menanganinya akan turut berubah. Ibu bapa, pihak sekolah, masyarakat dan media harus sentiasa menyumbang kepada penyelesaian masalah ini. Menghadapi cabaran globalisasi yang tiada sempadan ini memungkinkan semua maklumat sama ada baik atau benar disalurkan secara terus kepada remaja.Remaja mungkin mempunyai akses melakukan apa yang mereka mahu, tetapi hanya dengan keimanan yang tinggi dan kesedaran sivik

Masalah Salah laku Dalam kalangan Pelajar

Salah laku dalam kalangan pelajar bermaksud jenayah kecil yang dilakukan oleh pelajar di sekolah.Contohnya,menconteng meja,melawan guru,menconteng dinding tandas,merokok,memonteng kelas dan sebagainya.Jenayah kecil ini haruslah dihentikan sebelum terlambat.Bak kata pepatah,'sesal dahulu pendapatan,sesal kemudian tidak berguna.Faktor yang menyebabkan masalah salah laku ini berleluasa adalah kerana kurang perhatian dari ibu bapa,remaja inginkan kebebasan,pengaruh rakan sebaya dan pengaruh media massa.Kesan yang berlaku sekiranya masalah salah laku ini berleluasa terhadap sesebuah sekolah ialah sekolah mendapat nama buruk.Selain itu,pihak sekolah juga tidak akan dipercayai oleh pihak luar.Terdapat beberapa langkah yang boleh dilakukan untuk menangani masalah salah laku dalam kalangan pelajar.

Components of Computer

CPU:

Central Processing Unit. The most powerful microprocessor chip in your computer is the CPU. For example the Intel Pentium chip handles the central management functions of a high-powered PC. Intel's newest Hyper-Threading (technology that allows the CPU to process two separate threads of data simultaneously) CPU supports a 1 megabyte on-board L2 cache (the on-board cache functions as a buffer to feed data to the CPU at a faster rate). The speed of the CPU is measured in GigaHertz (billions of cycles per second).

RAM:

Random-Access Memory. Hardware inside your computer that stores information while you work. RAM is one of the things that makes your computer run faster. RAM is not permanent storage of data. When you turn your computer off, all data in RAM is lost. RAM is available in different types, sizes, and speeds. Currently, depending on the Motherboard, the Intel Celeron D CPU uses PC-2700 ram with 533 MHz FSB (Front Side Bus). The Intel Pentim 4 HT CPU uses PC-3200 DDR (double data rate) ram with 800 MHz Front Side Bus.

Hard Drive:

A Data Storage medium that houses all of the information in your computer. This would include your operating system (Windows), device drivers, programs, and data you have created using your programs (word documents, spread sheets, etc.). Unlike RAM the Hard Drive retains data when the computer is turned off. Hard Drives sizes are in GigaBytes or billions of characters. EIDE hard drives spin at a speed of 7200 RPM. Older EIDE hard drives spin at 5400 RPM. New technology hard drives are now on the market, and these are SATA (Serial ATA) hard drives. Currently, these SATA hard drives have speeds approximately the same as EIDE. Looking ahead, the SATA hard drives will be faster and the prices will drop. The SATA hard drives require different MotherBoard technology to support them.

MotherBoard:

The main circuit board of the computer. All key internal and external components of your computer plug into the MotherBoard, such as the CPU, RAM, Hard Drive, etc. The speed at which information travels across the MotherBoard is referred to as the BUS speed. Recently a new technology has been introduced called PCI Express. This allows a faster data transfer speed across the MotherBoard, especially for video graphic.

Case:

Often called the"computer", the case houses and provides power to the major computer components, including the MotherBoard, CPU, Hard Drive, RAM, Video Card, Sound Card, etc. Those components not housed in the computer case are usually referred to as "peripherals". The case also houses the power supply. It is important to have a large enough power supply to handle your current and future needs. Also important is that the case be large enough and have enough ball bearing fans so the internal components do not overheat and cause damage to themselves. Miniature cases are to be avoided. Never put your computer in a desk compartment or other small space where it can't breathe. Heat is the enemy of all computers.

Monitor:

The video display unit that sits on your desktop and serves as your computer screen. Monitors are available in two basic types. The CRT (cathode ray tube - looks like a TV set), called "flat" or "perfect flat" and the LCD (liquid crystal display) called "flat panel"- pictured on the left. The LCD Flat Panel monitors are more expensive, but have a smaller footprint on your desktop. The better LCD monitors can support digital (better) or analog input from the video card. With LCD Monitors we must watch closely the "response time". This is how fast the monitor redraws the picture. If you get a LCD with a slow refresh rate, some video or games may be jerky to watch.Be careful when you buy - rebuilt or refurbished monitors may be called "new" and have a one year warranty. You want a "brand new" monitor with a three year warranty.

Video Card:

A circuit board that plugs into a MotherBoard slot, usually an AGP (accelerated graphics port) slot or PCI Express slot (newer/faster/more bandwidth) and handles multimedia applications and graphics-intensive web sites freeing up the CPU (thereby increasing your computers speed). The monitor plugs into the video card which is accessed thru a slot in the back of your computer. The better the graphics chip on the video card, and the more ram built on the video card, the faster the display on the monitor. Top of the line games need very high performance video cards. Better Video Cards have both Digital (better) and Analog outputs.

Speakers:

Produce sound (music, voice, etc.) based on data created and sent by the sound card. Today, computer speakers have become very high quality and many include a sub-woofer for good bass.

Sound Card:

A circuit board that plugs into your MotherBoard that adds audio capability to your computer, providing high quality stereo output to the speakers.

CD-ROM:

Compact Disk - Read Only Memory. An optical storage technology that stores and plays back data. "Read Only" means the information can be displayed and used or copied, but cannot be deleted or changed (on the disk). One CD-ROM can hold around 650 megabytes of data, or the equivalent of 450 floppies. The speed of a CD-ROM refers to how fast the disk spins in the device.

CD-Burner or DVD/CD Burner

A CD Burneris the informal for aCD recorder, a device that can record data to a compact disc. CD-Recordable (CD-R) and CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) are the two most common types of drives that can write CD's, either once (in the case of the CD-R) or repeatedly (in the case of the CD-RW). In the CD-R recording process, the data is actually etched into the disc (burned) with a laser. In the CD-RW process the disk must first be formatted (burned) and then data is copied to or erased from the CD-RW media. Almost all burners can do both tasks - record (CD-R) and rewrite (CD-RW). The best way to determine this is from the specs. "52x32x52a" would be a spec for a current burner. The 52x means the record speed (CD-R), the 32x means the rewrite speed (CD-RW) and the 52a (a = average) means the read speed. If you have a CD-Burner, then a separate CD-ROM is not necessary.The DVD Burners read, write, and re-write to DVD,s and read, write, and re-write to CD's. If you have a DVD Burner, then a separate CD-Burner is not necessary.

Modem:

A circuit board that plugs into your MotherBoard that enables your computer to communicate with other computers and the Internet. Phone lines are "analog" and computers are "digital" so the modem has the job to MOdulate and DEModulate between analog and digital, thus the name MODEM.Special Note: For today's Internet User the old telephone modems are all but obsolete - try to obtain Cable or DSL Internet service.

Ethernet Card:

A circuit board that plugs into your MotherBoard and provides the capability to connect or "Network" your computer to other computers and/or the Internet. If you use a cable modem, your computer will need an Ethernet card. Ethernet cards come in different speeds. A 10 Mbps card can transmit/receive at 10 million bits (8 bits to a byte) per second. A 10/100/1000 Mbps card can transmit/receive at up to 1000 million bits per second.

Keyboard:

The peripheral device used to input information into a computer. It provides a set of alphabetic, numeric, punctuation, symbol and control keys. When a character is pressed, it sends a coded input to the computer, which then displays the character on the Monitor. Keyboards are available in corded and wireless models. Keyboards should come with a wrist rest.

Mouse:

A peripheral device connected to your computer, used to reposition the cursor or move the pointer on your screen. A mouse usually has at least two buttons, you can use to highlight text, open menu items, launch programs, etc. A mouse can be corded or wireless. Some mice have a ball on the bottom that rolls as you push the mouse, and some mice have optical function. No ball, the mouse senses the movement by an optical beam it emits. There is no need for a mousepad with an optical mouse.

Floppy Drive:

A device in your computer that allows removable (a floppy disk) storage. Data can be written to or read from a floppy disk in a floppy drive. Each floppy disk can be removed, so you can store data on more than one disk.

Operating system:

The foundation software of a computer system. Responsible for controlling and launching the installed applications and computer peripherals. It schedules tasks, allocates storage, handles the interface to peripheral hardware and presents a "default" interface to the user when no application program is running.
