Kursus Asas Pengajaran (KAP) NOV'08

On the 24th of November 2008, I went to Shah Alam to attend 'Kursus Asas Pengajaran' (KAP) which is organized by ILQAM. I went there with Mr Azmi which is a Science Computer lecturer from Senawang. We stayed at Presscot hotel in Klang. The course took us for 5 days to finish. There, we learnt about objectives of education, integrity, Outcome Based Education (OBE), Teaching with NLP, e-Learning, Learning styles, Micro teaching, Harnessing Creativity in Teaching and Learning and many more. Among the facilitators who taught us and gave the lecture were Dr. Mohd Mustafa, Assct Prof Dr Faizah, Ms Funny Frances Penafort, Ms Ismie Roha, Ms Norlela Samsudin, Datin Dr. Siti Rahayah, Dr Berhanuddin, Dr. Ruksana, Prof Dr. Alam, Prof Sr. Ir Dr. Suhaimi (MU,VC) and Mr. Marzuki Mohamed. The lecture was very interesting and we gain much knowledge / valuable information from it. The best thing by attending this coure was, we met a lot of friends from other UiTM's branches. I managed to get know a few ustads from Kedah, Pinang and Melaka. There, we also watched movies (Quarantine and Quantum of Solace) at night at Jaya Jusco Bukit Raja in Klang! We also had minum2 at midnight and discussed about our teaching experienced at our own places. Hehee.. Mr Azmi and I checked out from hotel on the 29th of November 2008 and went back to Melaka after we had done our mock teaching. (I think everyone did well for his/her presentation). Unfortunately, they also gave us 2 assignments to do and we need to submit it at the end of December. No more cuti2 for us!

p/s: After this, I need to attend Translations Course from 30/11 - 5/12/2008.

Tak sabar rasanya nak celebrate raya although I still have another 3 phd assignments (academic writing and research) to do!







Dear students,

Good Luck for your Final Exam!

Happy Fasting (2008)

Hadith Abu Hurairah RA, beliau berkata: Rasulullah SAW bersabda: “Telah datang kepada kamu Ramadhan, bulan yang berkah, Allah telah mewajibkan ke atas kamu puasanya, di buka padanya pintu-pintu langit, dan ditutup pada pintu-pintu neraka, dan dibelenggu padanya syaitan, demi Allah padanya terdapat satu malam yang lebih baik daripada seribu bulan, sesiapa yang diharamkan kebaikannnya, maka diharamkan”, dan pada lafaz yang direkodkan oleh Imam Ahmad: “Dibuka padanya pintu-pintu syurga” sebagai ganti kepada “pintu-pintu langit”. (an-Nasai, Ahmad, dan al-Albani mensahihkannya di dalam Sahih Ibn Majah, beliau menyatakan ia “Hasan Sahih”).

“Dari Abu Hurairah Radhiallahu ‘anhu, Rasulullah saw bersabda “Semua amalan anak Adam adalah untunya kecuali puasa, kerana puasa itu untukKu dan Aku akan membalasnya, puasa adalah perisai, jika salah seorang sedang berpuasa, janganlah berkata keji dan meninggikan suara, jika ada yang mencercanya atau memeranginya maka ucapkanlah “Aku sedang berpuasa”. Demi Dzat yang jiwa Muhammad berada di tanganNya, sesungguhnya bau mulut orang yang sedang berpuasa adalah lebih wangi di sisi Allah Azzawajalla daripada bau misk. Orang yang berpuasa mempunyai dua kegembiraan, jika berbuka mereka gembira, jika bertemu Rabbnya mereka gembira kerana puasa mereka” Muttafaq Alaih

Kursus Penterjemahan Am

June 26, 2008

On the 23rd of June 2008, 25 lecturers attended the translation course organized by Institut Terjemahan Negara Malaysia (ITNM) in liaison with ILQAM UiTM Melaka. The course actually takes 2 weeks to finish. By attending this course, the participants will get the certificate to become a certified translator. But, we have to take a test to get the certificate to qualify as one. Thanks to our facilitator Dr. Wan Amizah (br je disahkan dpt doktor td dr UKM, congrats doctor!) who has helped a lot during the sessions. We will continue the course in August for another one week during semester break.

I just got an offer letter from Universiti Putra Malaysia to further my study in Doctorate Program with thesis (Mass Communication). The program takes 2 to 5 years time to finish it... For this program, I need to attend the class. For this coming semester in July 2008, I am planning to take Trend and Challenges in Mass Communication class by Prof. Musa and Advanced Communication Theory by Dr. Narimah. The class is on tuesday, which I need to travel to UPM once a week. I might be getting busy starting from next semester as I need to attend the class, do assignment, do presentation and the most crucial part is to teach my beloved students. Luckily, for this semester, I will be teaching the same subjects. Wish me luck to take this challenge which I must go to work and study at the same time, the same thing what I did during my master...

Samsung SGH-E840

June 12, 2008

Today, my sister and i went to Dial @ Fone shop at Terminal Melaka Sentral. There, i bought a new hand phone. The actual price was rm769. After negotiating, i managed to get the price rm699.. Actually, i didnt want to buy a new hand phone. But, as the previous handphone dah selalu rosak dan 2 biji nombor dah hilang, finally, my sister pun dpt meracuni fikiran abangnya to buy a new hand phone. "Thank u so much sis as u have succeeded in persuading me to withdraw my money from the ATM machine and bought a new handphone at that moment"... If not, until now, your brother will still be using that orthodox handphone... hahahaaa...

p/s: next week nak action kat kekawan...

Induction in Kampung Gajah, Perak (113/08)

Hello there. It has been a long time i didnt write my blog. This is my first blog for year 2008...

On the 14th of May 2008 until 29th of May, I attended the induction for new lecturers for my batch 2006. There were 108 new lecturers attended the induction and 7 of them were from Melaka. There were a lot of activities that the lecturers needed to do such as LDK, organizing dinner, sports and a few seminar from morning until night! I was the only lecturer from faculty of communication and media studies. The good thing is, i can get to know many other lecturers from other faculties and from other branches. We learnt a lot during the induction. There, we discussed about general order, budget, income, allowance, rules and regulations as government servant and etc.

We need to pass the exam to become the government servant. Although we were pressured as they gave us only one day to study, we managed to do it well. Thanks to the organizer mr Huzaifah (pengurus pusat latihan) who always supported us during the induction program. Ok, got to go to work now!
