| description | West Coast Division of Sabah consists of six districts, specifically Kota Kinabalu, Penampang, Papar, Tuaran, Ranau and Kota Belud. There are activities that less preferred by secondary school students during camping. Therefore, a study in identifying the preferences of camp’s activities among the secondary school students had been done with total of 200 secondary students were conveniently selected from different schools in each district to answer the questionnaire. The method that was used to obtain mean score is descriptive analysis and results showed that the facilities and services such as parking areas, the layout of the camp, counsellors, camp activities, food services while camping, camp storage and children's playground reached an average of 3.50 and above, where students were satisfied with the facilities and services available at the campground in Sabah. Students were also required to reflect on their satisfaction towards existing activities provided in the camp. Activities such as camp fire, paintball, sunset and sunrise view, courses-based activity as well as archery were still satisfying for the students. In addition, this study found that activities such as photography became the primary choice in camping, where it reached an average of 3.68 of mean score, followed by treasure hunt (3.67), birdwatching (3.60), handicraft camp (3.57), talent show (3:53) and the last is the view of the sunset with an average of 3.50 of mean score. These preferred activities were measured based on its attractiveness, safeness and suitability. Results from this study would provide frameworks and guideline to the school authority to design activities that are preferred among students. At the same time, this result can be used as a reference for campsite’s manager in creating applicable activities in the future. |
