2.0 OUR PRIORITY

• We are here because of our students.• Quantity of teaching:

– Workload is generally fair (<6 hours/week).– Relatively speaking, a lot can be done for the

remaining 34 hours.– Loading is even lesser for staff without mixed-

mode programme. – Where does the remaining time go?

2.1 Teaching and supervision

12

• Quality of teaching:– Does the teaching effective and attractive or have

become culture?– PPT vs OHP vs internet vs OBE?– Integration of other teaching and learning

approaches?– Have me moved forward?– Recycled exam question?– Have we returned the script on time?– Have we been innovative enough?– Niche programme/syallabus?

2.1 Teaching and supervision (cont’d)

13

• Quality of teaching:– Have we marked where the mistakes are?– Have we given enough tutorials?– Have we prepared model answer for test, exam

papers?– How much time have we given to our students for

consultation?– PR with our students-all levels?


14

• Supervision:– Having good quality?– How long do we need to read the thesis?– Have we thoroughly checked the thesis?– Students graduated on time?– Good to have many students but have we been fair

to each one of them?– Have we given enough?– Do not copy the old traditions when we were

studying and apply them to our students.


15

• Mixed-mode:– Not very popular?– Possibility to offer full-time/part time on

weekdays?– Less number of international students?– Should we continue?– If we stop, can we promise that we will improve on

the other KPI’s?– Should we extend to other areas?


16

2.2 Research and publication

• Research:– Good number of USM grants.– Comfortable number of national grant.– Poor performance of international grant.– Main researcher or still menempek?– Experience staff should become a role model!– Complacency culture?– Why the same person?– Why need to extend?– Why the given money does not tally with KPI:

• Papers?• Graduated Ph.D./M.Sc. students?

– Please muhasabah diri. What went wrong?

17

• Publication:– Poor performance on impact factor journals.– Still giving so much priorities on conferences.– SKT has been so tolerable to date.– By setting the right priority, we can succeed!– Students mush publish.

2.2 Research and publication (cont’d)

18

2.3 Consultancy/testing/Courses• Consultancy/contract research:

– Fair performance and can do more.– Same person.– Project leader?– All disciplines must contribute.

• Testing:– Starting 2008, the number has increased.– All disciplines must contribute.– Are we competent enough?– How do we share the cakes?

19

• Short courses/seminar/conferences:– Why only AWAM’x?– We have been so active on short courses, why not

now?– Without not doing this, the KPI still the same?

• Testing:– Starting 2008, the number has increased.– All disciplines must contribute.– Are we competent enough?– How do we share the cakes?

2.3 Consultancy/testing/Courses (cont’d)

20

2.4 Services to community and university

• Services to community:– Does the local community aware of our presence?– How much they benefitted from our presence?– What can we contribute?– KPI vs contribution to community?

• Services to university:– We are doing ok on this. Many have been involved– However, it is sometimes limited to the same

person.

21

2.5 Priority: My wish

• Do the best for our teaching and supervision.– Be innovative– Narrowing the gap between lecturer/staff-students.

• Conduct quality research and produce tangible outputs:– ISI papers.– Quality Ph.D. and M.Sc. Graduates, on time.

• Under the APEX Programme, PG education plays a pivotal role in

USM’s Transformation Plan

• PG Education as the frontier of research directly affects:
