| description | This paper highlights the initialising stage of a Grounded Theory research with a focus on how some students from
the indigenous Orang Asli community survived the deficit theorizingthat rationalizes learning disengagement among
them. Influenced by arguments of anti-deficit thinkers, this research seeks to understand the situation from the
perspective ofstrength. Research sampling was purposeful, within the context of theoretical sampling following the
Grounded Theory method. To-date, data have been gathered through unstructured interviews with sixteen (16)
participants who have reached the tertiary level education. This paper however, presents the initial data gathered
from fieldwork and interviews with the first participant, which sets the scene for the subsequent research process.
The final findings are expected to provide an in-depth knowledge of the leading learning process among the
successful Orang Asli students; providing lessons learnedfor students, parents, teachers, schools, community, and
policy makers to consider for the betterment of theindigenous education. The study willcontribute to the body of
literature that supports strength-based practice for the continuous improvement of the disadvantaged indigenous
community. |
