University, i.e. project management.

3.3 Undergraduate Teaching

As I started my career as tutor in 1997, was mainly to teach diploma student. I have been involved in

teaching in three different mode diploma program namely, Mainstream Program, Joined Program, and

SPACE (part time program). For mainstream and SPACE program, the lecturer role is conducting

teaching and learning activities as usual, but for joined program, the course owners are responsible to,

to prepare final exam question, assessment evaluation and provide advice to the joined colleges

4.0 SUPERVISION

Since I joined Razak faculty, I have been involved in many postgraduate supervision. Since then, I have

graduated one PhD, one Engineering Doctorate, one M. Phil, more than 40 Master Project, and

more than 20 Final Year Diploma Project including Executive Diploma Project students. While I

am supervising 9 ongoing PhD and doctorate students as main and co supervisor, and 4 ongoing

master project students. The area of study is within my expertise including ultrasonic,

ergonomics, project and operation management. Laboratory, fieldwork and survey are main

research methodology that I needed to be mastering in my supervision activity. List of graduated

and ongoing supervision is in Appendix C.

Different supervision styles need to be adopted to each student depending on their background,

knowledge and skill. I believe frequent communication, good mentoring, keep motivating and

good advising help student progress in their research. The other role as supervisor also to assist

student to get scholarship, apply research grant, manage them to join conference and seminar.

Other than supervision, I also involve in student industrial training. I have been attending many

industrial training visits, evaluating student reports and presentation. For student mobility

program, I was appointed as supervisor for internship undergraduate student from Islamic University

of Madinah Saudi Arabia.

5.0 OTHER RESPONSIBILITIES

I have diversified responsibilities in teaching and learning since the beginning of my career as an

academician. In the early year in UTM, I have been appointed as industrial training coordinator

for diploma program, coordinator for SPACE program and coordinator for join program. I also

had been given an opportunity to manage join program when I was appointed as head of Join

Program Department. Later, I involved in many paper work preparations for diploma and master

program such as for COPPA, curriculum review, MQA accreditation and document preparation

for industrial and external examiner. My tasks as academic management is listed in Table 3 and

my experiences in accreditation, evaluation panel, program review, and other activities is

tabulated in Table 4.

I have examined many postgraduate proposal for MPhil, PhD and Engineering Doctorate. I have

been appointed as internal thesis examiner for MPhil and also as assistance chairman for doctoral

viva. List of appointment as panel of examiner as in Appendix D.

Razak Faculty is now recognized as Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL) center by

MQA. I have been appointed as APEL evaluation panel by APEL center. Most candidate are

applying APEL A for master level entry. Table 5 is list of APEL candidates that I have been

assessed.

I believe these valuable experiences for the past 20 years help me a lot in planning and managing

my teaching tasks effectively.

6.0 TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

I had been officially appointed as educator since 1997 when Diploma Program Study UTM Kuala

Lumpur employed me as tutor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. Prior to that, I was

an engineer in Production Department, Proton. As production engineer, I have been involved in

managing production schedule, quality control, process monitoring and most of the time I dealt

with production workers and other production supporting staff. In human resources

management, I have been given responsible to train new Proton workers in fundamental theory

of automotive painting and demonstrate Proton Production Department function and process

flow. Since then, I found myself have passionate in teaching and learning. This is the starting

point for me to embark myself in education. My interest, my personal personality, and my

industrial working experience has gradually influenced my view and philosophy on teaching. The

Below are my teaching philosophy:

I believe my fundamental role as an educator not only to deliver class materials, however

I have responsible to coach, mentor, guide, motivate and as role model to my students

in order to develop their scholarship in the field.

I have treated all students with absolute equality, regardless of age, gender, nationality,

intellectual ability or personal attractiveness.

I am always available on request and living up to this by devoting time to personal help

on demand.

I make it my business to try to understand the student point of view however erroneous

before attempting to give them my own. This means that when I do teach, I can choose

a conceptual path that leads from the students current understanding to a broader or

more conventional one.

I try to set a good professional example in written solutions and in conversation, by

always referring everything back to the standards of practice and industrial need.

Enthusiasm is critical to good teaching, and students have a sixth sense for it.

Page 15: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 15

I realize that teaching as a reciprocal relationship between educator and student. Both parties

need to play roles for the success of teaching and learning process. Follows are the primary tasks

of educator for their student:

Provide a conducive learning environment.

Provide required knowledge that helps student for their success.

Supply materials, opportunities, and feedback that helps them to learn.

Keep motivating, encouraging, and assisting all the time.

Be fair in all assessments.

Put yourself as their coach, friend, relative and parent when necessary.

To ensure the successful of teaching and learning, students should be having the qualities of success

people. These qualities of student are required so that the teaching and learning process more

effective.

Tolerant of different points of view.

Prepared for class.

Willing to work hard to complete course activities.

Willing to bring their life experiences into the class to enrich discussions.

Willing to share their outside experience to the class

Willing to apply what they learn in class for problem solving in real life.

Willing to adopt knowledge gained for new requirement outside.

My students are mainly working adult and with various working experience background, therefore life-

long learning skill is very important. As adult learners, they are usually having already

fundamental concepts of a specific course, thus the critical analysis and advanced problem

solving strategies need to be implied. For adult learning, the lectures have more challenging to

design assignments or project case study as they have vast experience in the particular subject.

Therefore, real industrial case study and current focus area requirement should be part

assessment content.

Writing is important skill for post graduate study. However, many postgraduate students have

lack capability in writing. By providing details guideline to write a case study report, allow them

to improve their writing skill indirectly. I also usually explain in class how to write a good articles

Page 16: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 16

or project report to ensure they submit a good quality of assignment. Good coaching is help much

to develop their writing skill, and to be faired I used this as my formative assessment.

Sharing knowledge and experienced among peer student is very useful in adult learning. I always

welcome student opinion and comments on a specific topic. I also encourage student to

participate in class discussion and allow them to even to critic their peers and myself by giving

better idea. This could develop their critical thinking, and initiate a new idea of in the subject

area. Up to the extend, the lecture should be in prior having well preparation. These steps help

myself:

Have a thorough knowledge of the subject area. I believe that I should be more

knowledgeable in each teaching subject, so that I should read a lot and understand all the

given problems.

Be well prepared. I always be prepared for each lecture session, willing to entertain in detail,

ideas or questions which arise spontaneously in the classroom. All lecture notes and

materials will be available in the e-learning at least two days before the class.

Make the subject interesting for the students and easy for them to learn. Be able to

communicate and discuss the interesting area of the course, significance of the course in the

program.

Make the student enjoy to study the subject and get involved in the classroom. Encourage

the students to get involve in some activities in the classroom such as demonstrating their

ideas in the group discussion, involve in online forum via e-learning, etc.

Understand that learning is an active experience. Students need to be active, not passive,

participate in the learning discussion.

7.0 TEACHING METHODOLOGIES

As the field keeps changing, one of the key goals in my teaching methodology is to provide a

framework for life-long learning. I aim to help students become reflective and collaborative

thinkers, and who are also effective communicators. As with any relationship, both parties must

be involved in its growth and development. Thus, I make an effort to learn every student name

and to encourage their active participation during class. The primary role of a educator is as a

facilitator, and in that role they should enable students to become responsible for their own

learning. I view teaching as a process of encouraging students to make connections between

Page 17: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 17

their own experiences and the subject matter. I strive to foster in my students critical thinking

skills and problem-solving strategies.

Different lesson types and different learning styles of students in the class require different

teaching technique. At postgraduate level, teaching adult learners who already have fundamental

concepts of the course require advanced problem-solving, real case study analysis and adapting

fundamental theory to the industrial issues. I believe this is the appropriate approach for some

doctorate level courses such as Current Topic in Supply Chain Management (ERSA 1213), Current

Topic in Project Management (ERSA 1233), Current Topic in Production and Operation

Management (ERSA 1113) and Current Topic in Technology Management. These courses not

only require to discuss in depth in real industry problems and solutions, but student need to

critically analyze previous cases that referred from journals and Harvard Business School case

studies.

For master level courses, I am facilitating many operation managements related courses such as

Operation and Strategic Management (MRSE 1513), Technovation Management (MRSF 1223),

and Technology Management (MRSE 2593). Although these courses seem to be similar with the

doctorate courses whereby also need high level, however the cognitive should be slightly below.

Most the cognitive taxonomy of these courses are set at 5 to 6 according to Bloom. Again a

comprehensive problem based learning (PBL) is being implemented. Student are required to

analyze industrial related problem or issue and they need to response that issue using right

theory and able to provide alternative approach or solution. Sometime students are required to

answer a structured and open ended questions to apprise their cognitive and soft skill

achievement.

Project Management (MRSE 2583 / ERSA 1233), the course that give great challenge in my course

teaching. In teaching this course, a compromise among fundamental theoretical, real project

implementation as suggested by PMBOK and experienced project manager student in classroom need

to be harmonized so the effectiveness of teaching and learning of this course is achieved. To manage

a project, the manager should be mastering in multidisciplinary area ranging from technical

knowledge, finance, managing people, contract, law and regulation, stakeholder management,

project planning and scheduling, and risk management whereby the fundamental and real current

issue of these area need to be integrated. Many opinion and argument raised by experienced student

in which they sometime did not agreed the theoretical suggestion when they realized that real issue

are contradicting. As tutor, I always open this conflict to all student for further rationalize. At the end

Page 18: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 18

a promising solution are required by providing real project example that applied theoretical to be

success. Therefore, I need a comprehensive preparation for by searching current issue of project

globally and focus on their success strategies

Technology Management (MRSE 2593) is one of my favorite courses. Discussion and sharing

technology thoughts among students really assist them learn from peers and the lecturer to

develop communication and life-long learning skills and abilities to organize their thoughts, and

to develop rational arguments. The interactive instruction strategy allows group member to

outline the topic, compose and rewrite, and reporting or sharing findings. Technology

management is essential; this includes communications, marketing, product development, and

efficiency in reporting. Today, technology management is one component of the business

environment that allows companies to remain competitive in any market, even those with fierce

competitors.

Industrial Ergonomics (MRSA 2083) is one of important course in master of OSH program. This

course offers theoretical and practical approach to the student. By taking this course, student

can easily to sit competency examination conducted by DOSH Malaysia to be a competence

ergonomic risk assessor. Many alumni master OSH program are now become a specialist in

ergonomist in their industry and as a freelance practitioner. One of FTIR alumni, Mr Mohd Nizam

Esa, graduated in Executive Master Occupational Safety and Health Management (EMOSHM) in

2017 was appointed as managerial level position as soon as graduation by his company now he

holds ergonomic assessor competency certificate from DOSH Malaysia. A part from theoretical,

students are given in class activity and assignment related to ergonomic risk identification,

assessment, risk mitigation and solution as part of course assessments.

For undergraduate teaching, I always choose the appropriate teaching method based on nature of

the subject taught and class condition. For example, Manufacturing Process (SMJP 2113)

required student to understand the fundamental of material processing and technology used.

Manufacturing process is the study of the characteristic of material undergone process of heating,

deformation, cutting, and joining using various techniques and tool and machines. It is one of the

fundamental applied material processing to many industries in the world. Real case study need to be

exposed to the student in class or out class. For example, I always use video, industrial visit and

information search for a specific project as part of my teaching method. I also emphasize, the good

quality product of manufacturing much depends on selection of correct material, process parameter

Page 19: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 19

and optimizing these parameters will lead to cost reduction. Then, I imply the problem-solving

methods by giving them tutorials, extra exercises, assignments and quiz. I use other teaching

methods such as co-operative learning and projects for Engineering Mechanics (SRSD 2093) and

Static (DDPJ 1003). I encourage the student through the active- learning where they must talk

about what they have learned, write about it, relate it to past experiences and apply it to their

daily lives. They must make what they learn part of themselves.

The use of e-learning helps me to familiarize my students with the current web technology and

Internet. by using the e-learning students can get the lecture notes earlier, attempt the quiz,

submit their assignment, and even chatting with me. I also can update the assessment of

students frequently because the system is designed complete with the grades tool.

I tried to increase communication and feedback both to and from my students. I encourage the

use of office hours, and I make myself available at other hours as well. I have a small conference

with each student about midway through the semester. I tell them how I view their work so far

and try to give them suggestions for areas in which to improve, and I find out from them about

any problems they are having. I always hold as much as office hours per week, and I make myself

available at other times as well. I tell my students they are welcome to come by my office at

other times, and unless I have an immediate deadline or meeting or class, I will be able to help

them. My detailed schedule is stated outside of my room.

There are also few teaching methodologies that I used to ensure the learning outcome of course

was achieved:

Imply textbook and interactive slide in the classroom. The book provides a lot of good

examples industrial case or engineering applications.

Encourage students to use variety online and offline of sources of information, being

exposed to open source tutorial and educational video eventually provide deeper

understanding from those written in the textbooks or journal articles.

Use simple language to explain or describe certain concepts, give simple example to ease

student to understand certain concepts or fundamentals.

Discuss the solution of necessary engineering problems and case study in the classroom.

This could very useful to attract their attentions so that they are not sleepy, especially in

the afternoon session.

Page 20: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 20

Motivate the student to learn or understand the certain concepts for their own good.

Compiled all the lectures notes, assignments, quizzes, tests, and final exams questions

(complete with the solution), and assignment for their future references.

Arrange an industrial visit, if necessary to expose students with real industrial issue,

current practice that they have learned in the classroom.

Give tutorials or extra exercises to students to increase their understanding and skills

of solving the given problems. Well explained the solution of tutorial in the classroom.

8.0 TEACHING STRATEGIES

In consider ways to make my lectures more impactful and engaging. I consider few teaching

strategies and techniques as below:

Small group teaching: Explore the facilitator skills required and how to avoid potentially

difficult scenarios when students are working in small groups.

Demonstrating in practical classes: Explore the key learning aims of practical classes and

how to get learners to effectively engage with them.

Flipped classroom: Consider a 'flipped' approach by asking students to watch video

content before the class session, and devote in-class time to exercises, projects and

discussions.

Active learning: Explore teaching and learning methods that put the student in charge

of their own learning through meaningful activities.

Problem based learning: A student centered approach, where students learn about a

subject through understanding and solving problems.

Work based learning: Providing students the opportunity to learn through real-life work

experiences.

Blended learning: Traditional classroom teaching combined with online learning and

independent study.

Student-centered learning: Students work together to support each other learning by

group class activity and forum discussions.

In the purpose of grading, I presume that grading as motivation to the student, not judgmental.

Student should embrace the taxonomy of learning as stated in course learning outcome by completing the

Page 21: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 21

all course requirements. One of biggest challenges is to grade student works fairly and efficiently.

When I am grading my student works, I am not only considering the outcome itself but the

problems and limitations that student are facing to complete the assessment. However, for

excellent grade the student must demonstrate the specific quality of work and effect to complete

the task given. Whereas to get pass I am leveraging all assessment outcome and simplifying the

assessment process.

I generally have high expectations on my students. When grading the tests, I try to strike a

balance, be fairly strict while but not to demotivate the students. This gives a signal to students who

are not doing the work, or for whom the course material is too difficult, so that they can either

drop the course or make the decision to devote more time and effort to the course. Also, it gives

students a good idea of where they stand in the course, so that there are no surprises at the end.

Finally, it allows me to take other factors into account when I make up final grades, resulting in

increases for some students at the end of the course. I spend quite a lot of time in the process of

figuring and deliberating final grades. As a result, I very rarely have any student who thinks that

his or her final grade is unfair or unexpected.

8.0 DESCRIPTION OF COURSE SYLLABUS

For postgraduate teaching, the core and electives courses that I usually coordinate are Project

Management (MRSE 2583 / ERSA 1233), Supply Chain Management (MRSE 2543 / ERSA 1213),

Industrial Ergonomics (MRSA 2083) and Technology Management (MRSE 2593 / ERSA 1123). As

a course coordinator, I prepared the course outline, lecture planning, and post module assessment

paper for that subject. The detailed in course outline and lecture planning will help me to organize

and coordinate the subjects between the three program of study. The brief description of course

material is given below, and further detail of the course syllabus is available in the e-learning

system.

Project Management (MRSE 2583 / ERSA 1233) is three credit course aims to expose

managers and engineers on topics pertaining to project management. It focuses both on

the technical tools of project management and the human elements. It provides

quantitative tools and techniques in assessment and decision making, while exploring

Page 22: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 22

insights into human behavior and group dynamics in projects. Lesson on what makes a

project a success or failure will be discussed through structured teaching and case studies.

Supply Chain Management (MRSF 1233) is three credit course is designed for students to

gain detailed businesses in the entire chain of activities involved in delivering products to

the customer. Supply Chain Management (SCM) is the integration of activities of material

or service procurement, production process and delivery to customers. This course provides

the student with knowledge in applying latest business technology for supply chain systems

in operations to enable effective, efficient and timely information capturing, processing and

exchanges among various business entities in today supply chain environment.

Industrial Ergonomics (MRSA 20183) is three credit course focus on the study of interaction

between people and industrial systems and the factors that affect the interaction. The

system can be improved by designing user-interface to make it more compatible, improving

work environment, designing tasks for people compatibility, improving the way of work

organized to accommodate people psychological and social needs. This course covers

human system design, anthropometry, human physical and body mechanics, workplace

design, manual handling, hand tools, environmental ergonomics, human factors error and

safety, job design, and ergonomic analysis and assessment. Student are expected to

understand ergonomic principles, apply ergonomic methodology in industry, evaluate and

solve ergonomic related problem in industry.

Operation and Strategic Management (MRSE 1513) is three credit course is designed to

elaborate the areas for competitive advantage is operations, or the production and delivery

of both goods and services to the customer. Operations strategy ties up with the overall

business strategy while operations management ensures that the operations are executed

effectively, efficiently and productively. This course introduces students to the importance

of operations strategy, current issues, tools and techniques and analysis related to the design,

planning, development, control, and improvement of manufacturing and service operations.

Technology Management (MRSE 2593) is three credit course. Technology is becoming an

increasingly important determinant of success. While technology per se is important, it is

necessary for managers to be prepared to deal with challenges continuously being faced by

Page 23: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 23

organizations in either developing, acquiring or using newer technologies. This module

provides the student with an understanding of the depth and scope of managing technology

and concepts, as well as the challenges and tool to address them. Amongst others, it deals

with ethical issues in technology management, new TM paradigms, technology life cycles,

technological innovation, linking business and technology strategies, technology planning

and implementation strategies, acquisition and exploitation of technology, assessment and

justification for technology investments

For undergraduate teaching, I always coordinate and teach fundamental and advanced mechanical

engineering courses. The courses including Manufacturing Process (SMJP 2113 / DDPJ 2703), Mechanic

of Machine (DDPJ 3113), Static (DDPJ 1003), Welding Engineering (SMJP 4923). The synopsis of these

courses as follow:

Manufacturing Process (SMJP 2113 / DDPJ 2703) is three credit course consists of introduction

to manufacturing processes, common aspect in manufacturing, metal casting, bulk metal

forming, sheet metal forming, forming of polymer, machining operations, joining processes,

and the latest and competitive environments in manufacturing. The elements of precision in

manufacturing process are embedded in this course.

Mechanic of Machine (DDPJ 3113) is three credit course that continuation of Dynamics. This

course comprises of analysis of gear systems, belt, balancing and crank effort diagram.

Mechanical control device such as governors also discussed. This course also introduces to the

fundamental of vibration including free vibration and force vibration.

Welding Engineering (SMJP 4923) is three credit course. The purpose of this course is to give

familiar with the concepts and terminology in welding engineering. Student will understand

how welding design is built on a foundation oh heat flow stress, structural analysis and fitness

for services. In this course the students will learn the basic theory of various materials joining

processes including arc, resistance, solid state, and high energy density welding.

Static (DDPJ 1203) is three course. This fundamental of mechanical engineering course

introduces student with the concepts of the first, second and third Newton Laws. Each law is

applied to particles and rigid bodies which are subjected to a system of coplanar forces. A

general case of 2D and 3D force systems acting on rigid bodies are then analyzed.

For teaching and learning process, student is initially supplied with the lecture materials including

lectures notes, extra reading material, case study sheet, and course teaching plan. A registered

student can simply get these material from e-learning that I usually uploaded earlier in the

Page 24: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 24

system. For evaluation, I always use formative and summative assessment methods. For

formative, students are grouped consist of not more than 6, who are required to analyze a

specific question or case and come out with comprehensive solution. They are evaluated during

the session by peers and presentation. For summative assessment, most common method used

are tests, quizzes and post module assessment (PMA). Whereas for undergraduate student, they

will have final examination as main part of evaluation. I believe a good student who has scored

consistently high marks in their course work and final examination or PMA will finally score a good

grade. I monitor the result of potential students continuously throughout the semester to help

them score in their final examination especially for undergraduate. I also collected some of

student answer scripts for my future reference and data collection of my teaching research. I tried

to choose the best and the worst answer scripts for each class of subject taught. A few samples of

the best answer scripts for the subject taught are attached in every course file. I imply projects in

certain subjects to enrich the generic skills of my students. Several forms of project such as

preparing poster and model, subject investigation, case study and organizing a seminar. During

the seminar the best presenter and the best group project were selected and given a token to

encourage them committed with their projects. Example of my course learning outcome or

course information as in Appendix E.

9.0 EFFORTS TO IMPROVE TEACHING

Several steps have been taken to improve my teaching technique:

Learning from experience

Experience is the best teacher. I have a long way to go in my career as a lecturer. There are so

many things to do and one of them is to improve my teaching skills. I learn a lot from my own

experience as a lecturer. I keep on asking my students to give their comments on my teaching

and the way I have conducted my class. These comments help me a lot in improving my

teaching. I used to keep all the feed backs, run through everything and try to accommodate

their suggestions. I equally learn from other experience especially my seniors.

Learning is a lifetime effort

Everyone must believe in this. Lecturers in particular must be at the frontline of this effort.

Otherwise, we will be a Jurassic lecturer. Apart from attending professional conferences, I will

Page 25: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 25

participate in courses that would enhance my professional value. I should not be seen as

someone normal, but I like to be seen as extraordinary. I have to think big. Whenever

opportunity occurs, I will try not to miss any of it. by this, I will be able to also guide my students

to think out of the box.

Through research and development activities

Research will increase the depth of knowledge and level of expertise. Through research work,

in essence, I will be able to understand better why a certain scenario happened in a given

manner. Whenever new issues arise, certainly, the challenge to formulate relevance solution

would come into picture. by that it is not only must we be able to work in a scientific manner

but we must also be able to exercise a good amount of creativity. in doing so also new methods

could be rediscovered. I am sure we can be a better teacher.

Publications

Publications is one of the best means of putting our knowledge, findings and analysis in a

structured manner. It also served as a sharing medium with our counterparts and colleagues

from all over the world who may share the same interests. It is a good medium of exchange of

knowledge and findings. That would certainly help me in my understanding over a new matter.

Besides, I also took several other steps to improve my teaching technique including self-

evaluation; courses, conferences and workshops attended; participation in program on

sharpening instructional skills; and writing articles and modules.

I engage in self-evaluation during each class session. I always reflect on what I do and do not do in

each class. Part of this process involves thinking back over the class immediately after the class

session has finished. by reflecting on the class session while it is still fresh in my mind, I try to identify

what worked and what did not work. I also try to identify the reasons why what worked did work

and why what did not work failed to work. This process of continual self-evaluation over the

quarter allows me to make mid-course corrections. I make a conscious effort to monitor the body

language and facial expressions of my students. If I notice a growing number of bored

expressions, then I consider whether to speed up the pace or move on to the next topic. If I notice

mostly dazed and confused expressions, then I consider slowing down and providing additional

Page 26: Teaching Portfolio Samira2018 · 2021. 2. 25. · TEACHING PORTFOLIO Associate Professor Ts. Dr. Mohd Yusof Md Daud Department of Engineering and Technology Razak Faculty of Technology

Page | 26

explanations or examples. If I notice blank expressions, then I stop and explicitly tell the students

that I need their feedback on whether they are understanding the material and are becoming

bored or whether they are so confused that they do not know what to do or ask.

In order to improve, up-date and upgrade my knowledge in teaching and learning, I have also

attended conferences, seminars and courses at the national and international level. Among the

attended conferences, seminars and related courses are listed in Appendix F. I also presented

and published my paperwork in journals, seminars and conferences. The articles that I have

published help me to enhance my knowledge and increase my confidence in teaching the related

topics in class.

10.0 EVALUATION OF TEACHING

10.1 Student Rating Evaluations

I use the UTM Teaching Evaluation Form for every class at the end of every semester. I found these

standardized forms are extremely helpful precisely because of their standardization, they allow

me to track my performance over time using a consistent instrument and they allow me to

compare my performance to that of other lecturers using the same instrument. I believe that

both types of information are valuable. Tracking my performance over time allows me to

examine the effects of changes in my courses. Such feedback is critically important to me because

I continually try to change the courses to improve them each time that I teach them. My ratings

are generally quite positive when I almost always earn average ratings above 4.0 and also usually

earn average ratings above 4.5. Even though the ratings are generally positive, the evaluations

still help me identify areas that would benefit by change and improvement. Student evaluation

for last 5 years of my teaching is shown in Table 6 for postgraduate and Table 7 for

undergraduate respectively. I cannot retrieve few semester rating due to system problem or

student did not rate my class using e-ppp system.

10.2 Class Reflection and Constructive Comments

At the end of each class, students gave class reflection and comments. I believe that students are

mostly appreciate if they are satisfied with the learning process and they have opportunity

involved in sufficient interactive activities. The collection of class reflection form provided by the

Faculty Academic Office give me insights of student feedback on my teaching and how I am going to

improve my teaching strategies in future. The samples of class reflection and comments that I

consider as positive are as follows:

All topics were covered and explained thoroughly. Thank you so much.

Dr has been very helpful and the class was very interactive!

I also received some constructive comments from student. I always welcome these comments in which

I really need for my teaching and learning activities improvement. Example of these comments are as

follow:

Make more interesting slides.

Give more practical examples.

Provide local case studies.

I also frequently ask peers to examine my course materials and provide me feedback. Not only

this has provided me specific comments and ideas, but more variety of teaching topics are

discussed. The moderation process as practice in UTM also very helpful to assist lecturers to look

into their assessment and course materials indeed.

11.0 PRODUCT OF TEACHING

I received the award of Excellence Service Award 2008 (Anugerah Perkhidmatan Cemerlang, Citra

Karisma UTM). In 2013, I received again Excellence Service Award for the second time in my service.

Although this is not a teaching award purposely, but this award shows some appreciation on my

efforts and commitment on my teaching and other teaching responsibilities because teaching is

my routine as a lecturer. In recent years, UTM Lead give certificate to lecturers who achieved Level

5 Blended Learning for their teaching. Since 2013, almost all of my courses had achieved Blended

12.0 SHORT TERMS AND LONG TERMS GOALS

As educator, I realize that the teaching and learning method and delivery currently is changing by

advancement of technology. To accommodate IR 4.0, teaching and learning styles need to be

updated accordingly. Therefore, my long term goal in teaching and learning is to fulfill the

requirement of future ready education. A new approach of teaching and learning that considered

as most flexible for all is micro credential certification. I plan to have compressive module in

ergonomics that fulfill micro credential requirement soon. This could assist many practitioner,

industrial player, and interested people to enhance a specific knowledge ergonomics and

simultaneously they can accumulate credits for later certification.

Another long term plan in my teaching initiative is to develop a massive open online course

(MOOC) for technology management in UTM open learning. I really interested to develop and

apply the MOOC because the online course aimed at unlimited participation and open access by

providing interactive user forums to support community interactions among students and

educators. Nowadays, MOOCs emerged as a popular mode of learning which often emphasized

open- access features, such as open licensing of content, structure and learning goals, to promote

the reuse and revising of resources. Some later MOOCs use closed licenses for their course

materials while maintaining free access for students.

I have been setting few teaching goals to be achieved in short term. First, is to update document for

my course files via e-learning as online learning become essential nowadays. I make full use of the

e-learning websites to supply extra readings and utilize it as means of communication with my students.

I found that my students were happy with the e-learning and it really helps them in their study. I would

like to have my personal web page which allow everybody to get access to my works, publications,

teaching materials and a personality inventory that I have developed during my doctoral study.

Second, to publish as many as possible good quality of student assignment and project. I also

want to improve and upgrade my teaching skills. I will try to practice the lifelong learning process by

keeping myself updated with new skills and technologies in relation to teaching and learning. I will try

my best to include all the necessary generic skills needed by the students in my teaching programs

direct or indirectly. To improve my skills in making good assessment, I will always learn from my

seniors and update myself through courses and attending related seminars. I consistently improve my

lecture notes and other teaching materials. They will be upgraded to compose teaching modules and

finally, after some revision, to turn them into books. To adapt to the changing environments, the

usage of information and communication technology is important and relevant. I intended to develop

courseware for my subjects.
