Back in Sabah and Labuan
I was a week away from my hometown last June. Back in Sabah and Labuan after 7 years was overwhelmingly-heart-touching feeling. Oh just how I missed my younger days! Here are some pics of me and my senior, Dr Hasnah strolling around schools in Sabah and Labuan for consultations of SSQS. Enjoy!
our first visit – SK Lapasan, about 30 km from Kota Kinabalu City Centre
SK Lapasan at a glance – a small school at downtown KK
SM Maktab Sabah – Form 5 students answering the Questionnaires
After 3 days in Sabah, we took a 20 mins flight to Labuan
Labuan Aku Datang!
SK St Anne – Standard 6 kiddos are even bigger than me ;p

Korea International Women Invention Exposition (KIWIE) 2015
I am truly honored to be part of this exciting event. The exposition was held at aT Centre, an exhibition hall located at the heart of Seoul extravagant and hectic city, which is Gangnam. The exhibition had attracted women inventors from over 23 different countries. More than 200 products displayed and took part in this event. UTM team had 3 different products, 2 from School of Graduate Studies (SPS) and the other 1 is my product which is mobile learning apps..and guess what??!! we’ve managed to grab SILVER medal! Alhamdulillah. This is beyond our imagination since we are not expecting any medal actually. We have done our best and present the products to the juries confidently (well actually.. calm on the surface, but but paddling like the dickens underneath) hee hee..
The expo went through for 4 days (15-18th May, 2015). I took 2 days flight earlier to experience Seoul and particularly, Gangnam city. Clean and structured and neat city I might say. Very lively at night especially in Namdemon market. Insyaallah if I have the chance, definitely I would like to take part in this event next year.

LaTiCE 2015 in Taiwan
Learning and Teaching in Computing and Engineering (LaTiCE) Conference was held in Taiwan from 9th to 12th of April, 2015. Accordingly, National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU) was chosen to be the host for this year event. Prof. Dr. Anders Berglund from Uppsala University, Sweden officiated the event. I was very lucky and honored to be part of this event, as well as to present part of my research findings to the delegates. Few familiar faces like Dr. Neena Thota and Dr. Arnold Pears was seen throughout the conference. They are among the prominent names and the expertise in the field of computing education. I would recommend fellow friends and students to take part in this conference as it is for me, is a great platform for us to build network, sharing of ideas and discussion of recent researches in the field of computing education. I heard that next year, they probably have this conference in Mumbai, India. I am more than happy to share the information with you later.
