Teaching Excellence System (TES) workshop_Part 3

Measures of Student Learning 

Basically, the information in Average score in ePPP and Feedback and Testimony from ePPP is generated from ePPP.  So, what you can do is you have to make sure your students would evaluate you every semester without fail and request them to give narrative feedback about you.  Any narrative feedback will appear in Feedback and Testimony from ePPP.  

But, for Feedback and Testimony (From others), upload any message, cards etc.  (written feedback) that you get from your students.  If you receive a Whatsapp message from your student, screen shot it and then covert it into PDF format before uploading it to your TES.  

Psst…. so next time when your students want to say thank or whatsnot, you can request them to write it in a form of note.  No need card.  Just a simple A4 paper would be enough.  😀

What can be commercialised based on products with Intellectual Property (IP)?_Part 2 by UTIM

Commercialization of Intellectual Property 

Why do we have to commercialize?

  1. Benefit for others
  2. Income generation
  3. Create employment opportunity (spin-off company – syarikat hiliran)
  4. Experience for business and networking

What should you do before commercialization?

  1. Get Intellectual Property first
  2. Marketability (have to do market survey first)
  3. Know about commercial acts

Note: Make sure that whatever you commercialize would be based on your expertise.  For example, if you have a cosmetic product but your expertise is in educational psychology, you can file for IP but it won’t be counted in MyRA.

But let’s say you have a module but Penerbit UTM does not want to publish it, you can copyright it first under InnoComm and then print it yourself and register your training in UTIM.  So, you can use your module for every single training that you do and then even though Penerbit UTM does not hold the copyright, yet you can still commercialize it under UTIM.  In this case, you commercialise your service and product i.e. module.  

 

Al-fatihah to my former lecturer_Part 1

It would never be easy to receive news about someone who has been in your life especially when you are their students.  You owe them a lot to be who you are today.  Today I receive a news from my friend about the passing of my former lecturer, Brother Muhammad Fuzi Omar (I would refer him as Brother because I known since even before he got his PhD).  Al-fatihah.
