The PEEP program was designed to suit students who need personalized and dedicated help to improve their academic performance on campus. A total of 8 weeks of PEEP workshops were conducted weekly during Semester 2 Academic Year 2007/08. These were students nominated by the respective colleges with CGPA below 2.0. The expected outcomes from the PEEP program are increased motivation, increased confidence level and improvement in their academic results. The indicator of success is 40% of students who have attended and completed the two modules of the workshops will be able to improve their academic results by scoring at least CGPA 2.0 and above. A total of 53 (39%) students attended PEEP workshops. However, none of the students completed the two modules of the workshop. Feedback was gathered from students after every workshop. The result shows that 63% of students felt motivated and 75% indicated an increase in their confidence level after attending the workshop. The CGPA improvement could not be measured because none of the students attended the two modules of the workshop. Overall, this pilot program managed to achieve part of its objective but failed to reach out to this targeted group of students due to poor attendance.

Numerous studies have looked at both the physiological health benefits of physical exercise, however, studies that examine the relationship between exercise and psychological health, specifically on anxiety, report ambiguous findings. This paper, a qualitative study, diminishes the ambiguity by explaining the relationship between earobic exercise, trait anxiety, and state anxiety. Four (4) female participants engaged in an aerobics exercise class in Bandar Baru Bangi, Selangor, they were all employes women working within the town. The participants ranged from 25 to 55 years of age, with an average age of 40. It was found that trait anxiety moderated the effect aerobic exercise had on a woman's state anxiety level following aerobic exercise. Women with a higher level of trait anxiety reportes a lower level of state anxiety following exercise when they participated in more hours of arobic exercise per week. On the other hand, aerobic exercise had little effect on state anxiety levels in women with low trait anxiety levels.
