Abstract

This paper introduces the "Proud Of Your Own" module (POYO), the Blended Module that combines the academic resilience constructs and the contents of the form four physics subjects contained in the Physics curriculum in Malaysia, the topic of Light and Vision. The purpose of the module development is to improve the academic achievement of the topic as well as the academic resiliency of the students involved through the psychoeducation approach. The POYO module focuses on the promotion and enhancement of academic resilience that can widen the inner strength of the students from four aspects which are social skills, social support, goal efficiencies and planning priority behaviours. The combination of the idea of Social Constructivism theory as proposed by Vygotsky (1978) and the Cultural-ecological transactional Theory by Bronfenbrenner (1979) has been adapted in line with the goal of creating a conducive environment for science learning and student personality development. This paper also discusses the formulation of psychoeducation approaches based on Behaviourism theory. The key elements in the theory are convincing in a psycho-educational approach that can help the subject teachers in and out of the classroom. The development of this module can be a catalyst for the other subjects and helps teachers to practice counselling skills in the classroom through psychoeducation approaches.
