Day 186 Task – Final Check of my ICLCA2020 Manuscript Submission

Posted on July 4, 2020 ·

Today is a wonderful Saturday. I have a list of tasks to do but it is quite difficult to work during a weekend break like today. But, I am trying my best to balance both relax and work.

Anyway, I have 2 manuscripts to be submitted for ICLCA but I haven’t yet completed checking both of it. Today, I will be doing just that. Earlier, I received an email about the publication of a manuscript for a PhD student that I currently co-supervise with Dr. Muhammad Tahir. The student, Sehar Taslim, successfully managed to publish her work in Journal of Alloy and Compounds. Click the link below to see and read the manuscript.

Day 184 Task – Preparing Open Book Examination for Engineering Courses

Posted on July 2, 2020 ·

This is one webminar that I am involved in directly as the Chairperson. It was an amazing experience.

The COVID-19 pandemic affected the normal way of Teaching-Learning and Assessment conduct in education. Teaching becomes remote and alternative assessments are prevalent. Open book examinations have always been an alternative assessment used in engineering education. The nature of the complexity of engineering problems require application of several principles, tasks and/or standards or codes of practice to solve. The first part of the webinar explains the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC) & Engineering Technology Accreditation Council (ETAC) Guiding Principles on Teaching-Learning and Assessment Implementation during COVID-19 Pandemic, which stipulated that all programmes are to ensure the attainment of the 12 Programme Outcomes (POs) according to the Standards and the purpose of accreditation shall not be compromised. How open book examinations can be used will be elaborated. The second part of the webinar focuses on utilising Constructive Alignment as the underpinning principle to make open book examination questions. Tips and examples on coming up with open book examinations will also be shared.

Day 182 Task – Checking, Preparing and Submitting ICLCA2020 Manuscript

Posted on June 30, 2020 ·

By right today is the deadline to submit ICLCA2020 manuscript and also to pay for the early bird fee. And because of that, I am preparing for it till late evening. I am submitting 2 manuscripts to this conference which for the first time will be virtually conducted. One paper is from Siti Mariah (my Phd student) and another one from Nasyitah (my undergraduate research student). For ICoST2020, I submitted one manuscript which was Lim Jian Liang’s (my undergraduate research student) paper.

Today also marks the end of the 1st half of 2020 since it is 30th June 2020. I managed to detect that thanks to this official daily task recording practice. Tomorrow will be the beginning of the second half of 2020, starting from 1st july 2020 till 31st December 2020.

Day 178 Task – Editing Chemical Engineering Career Sharing for Chemical Engineering Students

Posted on June 26, 2020 ·

Previously I had this chemical engineering career session sharing with 3 students. It was a 2.5 hour sessions and because I wanted to share it in Youtube, I have to go through it and edit this long video, thanks to Webex who allowed us to record all the session. After long hours of editing the video, finally it was complete. You can see the videos here.

Personally, I think this is an important session to help the students have better vision and comprehension on their future chemical engineering career. I hope this could help them brilliantly. I edited the videos using Camstasia 9.0 and I only have limited video editing skill so my videos are not that fancy, but sufficient to provide value to students.
