2022 Day 44 Task – Respond to Student’s Test Queries & Result

Posted on February 13, 2022 ·

Introduction to Engineering Test result was released to the students of my class last week. Some of the students inquired about the answers, marks, and others. I did not have the time to entertain them last week due to managing some other tasks. Today I make it a point to respond to all those who have asked me about their test result.

The delay for doing this was also partly because of the online class. At least if we are face to face, then we can immediately response to them. Even though this maybe a small task, it is still super important for me as an educator. As a lecturer, our focus on teaching and helping our students.

Other tasks of the day:

  • Updating student’s marks for ITE
  • SCEE RAE Project proposal still on-going

2022 Day 38 Task – FRGS Progress Report Submission

Posted on February 7, 2022 ·

I lost track of previous FRGS progress report reminder but finally an email that arrived in my inbox today quickly provided me the instant alert I needed. The alert clearly mentioned you have ONE more day left.

Without hesitating, I immediately login to my Mygrant Portal to do the report. I struggled at first because I am not used to the system and it is not that we do this report on a monthly basis. Luckily I managed to be assured on what to do after calling Asmadi for help, just to double confirm which part to fill up. Alhamdulillah I have just submitted the report and asked my ARO, Amelia at RMC to check if the progress report passed through.

Other tasks for the day:

  • Various equipment and consumable purchase for my Master student

2022 Day 36 Task – Writing Impact Study for ASEE Paper

Posted on February 5, 2022 ·

It was actually unexpected for me to be part of the team lead by Prof Khairiyah to write a paper to be submitted to a prestigious conference in Engineering Education that is American Society of Engineering Education (ASEE) conference. The quality of papers presented in ASEE is of the highest quality and it is truly engineering education at its core level.

The title of the Abstract prepared to be submitted by our team is “The 21st Century Learning and Teaching: Malaysian Perception and Direction”. The final topic maybe the same or if there is any changes, it may not be that much.

My part is to write on the Impact and Significance of Study. It’s challenging but I am up to it. I know I must write it carefully and meaningfully as the audience for this conference is massive and those who are in the engineering education research line.

And yes, this is a wonderful Saturday, where suddenly at 8am, my UNIFI Broadband went down and we are not connected. Had to call Unifi Technician to rectify our internet.

Other tasks of today:

  • SCEE proposal
  • Update CV

2021 Day 271 Task – Evaluating Internship Student

Posted on September 29, 2021 ·

I have a practicing engineer before and by volunteering myself as the supervisor for practical student (internship) training, I am allowed to revisit a number of industry even though it is now conducted virtually.

Today, I invigilated and assessed my academic advisee student named Nuurfatihah Nazihah Sakhon who successfully conducted her practical training at Uro Technology Sdn. Bhd. It was a company that manufactures catheter that is used to flow out fluid from human blader.

Other tasks of the day:

  • JERAYAWARA (ROADSHOW) SISTEM PENGURUSAN KUALITI (SPK) FAKULTI KEJURUTERAAN BAGI PROSEDUR OPERASI KE SKA, SKM DAN SKT

  • RCEE2021 ITE-ISP-ICP paper meeting

Due to the earlier pre-scheduled meetings I had today, I could not attend 3 more programs which are (a) NTU Annual Learning and Teaching Conference: from Good to Great 2021 from National Technical University Singapore; (b) WORKSHOP ON UTM CAMPUS SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE FRAMEWORK 2030; and also (c) CREG Meeting to discuss on running a Webinar.

It’s tough when there are too many events or programs per day. When this happen, I just need to prioritize whichever is the most important and require me to be there more importantly.
