A Guide to New Academia Learning Innovation.<\/p>\n

Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL), UTMLead has been given a great responsibility to carry out initiatives under the New Academia Learning Innovation (NALI). NALI emphasises the concept of entrepreneurship. By entrepreneurship, we refer to the context of learning that is more productive, creative and innovative (Zaini, 2012). Figure 1.1 shows the model of NALI. There are two modes under NALI \u2013 Pedagogy\/ Andragogy and Digital Resources, all of which contains 15 projects.<\/p>\n

In support of the national e-Learning policy or \u2018Dasar e-Pembelajaran Negara (DePAN)\u2019, UTM through NALI runs courses that implement blended learning approaches. Blended learning is defined as the practice of combining both online and face-to-face learning experiences, where 30 % to 80 % of the course content is delivered online. Face-to-face learning covers Case study, Problem Based Learning, Scenario-Based Learning, Peer Instruction, Service Learning, Job Creation, CDIO and OBE practices. Digital learning involves the use or the development of internet and video materials in the forms of Open Courseware, UTM MOOC, BLOSSOMS, Video of Exemplary Professionals, Student to Student Edutainment, and UTM e-Learning.<\/p>\n

The main objectives of the NALI initiative are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To align UTM teaching and learning models, activities, materials, environments, and systems with the Malaysian National Higher Education Strategic Plan, the needs of employers and the requirements of accreditation bodies,<\/li>\n
  2. To emulate best teaching and learning practices from the World\u2019s best universities,<\/li>\n
  3. To develop UTM\u2019s own identity related to teaching and learning models, activities, materials, environments, and systems,<\/li>\n
  4. To create meaningful and interactive learning activities, materials, environments and systems appropriate to UTM Graduate Student Attributes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
