Day 132 Task – Working on My Students Review Journal Papers

Posted on May 11, 2020 ·

The was heavily invested and spent for my master and phd student’s review paper. I checked the Turnitin for duplication score and it was not that encouraging. Hence, few adjustment need to be made and I asked my students to take action to improve the plagiarism score. It was not that serious but in order for it to be submitted to reputable journals, we should just take care of this.

But here’s a tip… Don’t be shocked if the duplicate score is so high. You can exclude the bibliography / references part and that massively reduced the duplicate score. I did that and it worked, as shown in the image above.

Day 129 Task – Cyan Meeting – My Plant Design Project Team Meeting

Posted on May 8, 2020 ·

We have to get used to the new norm. This is the new situation since Covid19 hit us terribly. All meetings must be performed online, virtually including this small Plant Design Project meeting with my students. After about 2 or 3 weeks not having a meeting, we get back together to discuss on various stuffs, which include sizing, costing, waste, recovery etc. The meeting was good and I believed the students benefited. However, there are still few information that need to be searched for and confirmed. That’s fine though. The most important thing is my students are working smart, hard and happy. All the best guys!

Day 125 Task – Managing Plant Design Project Matters

Posted on May 4, 2020 ·

As the head coordinator for Plant Design Project, I have to be on high alert on all the deadlines for various task, not just students but also the supervisors too. Today is the deadline for the supervisors to submit Interim Report marks. We, the coordination team also need to device and improvise a better method for data / marks collection from all supervisors. It seems that the present method is not efficient and very time consuming. We have agreed on a new method and will soon introduce it to all the supervisors. We hope to get the utmost cooperation, InsyaAllah.

Oh yea.. at the same time, I attended a Webex Session on Free Hand Visualization training organized by Alumni UTM and delivered by Dr. Ruzaimi Mat Rani, my senior from MCKK, whom is also a superb badminton player (we were in the same team).

Day 124 Task – Graduate Student Attribute (GSA) Online Webex Class

Posted on May 3, 2020 ·

Previously, after the MCO was announced, the GSA classes was quite difficult to be organized because of the need for students to adjust. There was a small number of students who cannot participate or commit on the online class because of data limitation. Hence, as result, I gave them guide and assignment via eLearning. Alhamdulillah everyone managed to performed and delivered all the assignments excellently.

Today, I decided to meet the students in an online Webex class. And to my surprise this time, all students attended. Unfortunately, I forgot to snap a photo for the Online Class session, but I managed to capture the online attendance via the attendance QR Code.
