On 15th August 2021, PGSS SKM-SKBSK in collaboration with SPS UTM were pleased to conduct a structured course for session 2020/2021 that is “Pandemic & My Infected Productivity” via an online platform. This course is organized to share the tips on managing time and being more productive as a postgraduate especially during the pandemic. It was an honor to have Dr. Jaysuman Pusppanathan, a senior lecturer at SKBSK and a faculty advisor of PGSS SKM-SKBSK.
In further details, this course was published online a week before the event and managed to secure 54 UTM Students, one (1) UTM Staff and eleven 11 non-UTM make a total of 66 participants to join through online Cisco Webex. Based on the participants’ feedback, overall 99% of the participants are satisfied with the course. The participants also believed that the course was very informative and the speaker had conveyed the message clearly and engaging. In addition, the session was not only based on slides, but it involved two ways of communication and learning there were some MENTI sessions conducted throughout the sharing session. The interaction between the speaker and participants were lively. With the help of the moderator, all participants got the chance to participate in the Q&A session throughout the program.
Overall, “Pandemic & My Infected Productivity” course has received excellent ratings from the participants with many positive comments. Nevertheless, some of them suggested more time allocation so that the speaker and participants can discuss more on the topic. Therefore, the organizer has taken note of this comment and hopes for improvement in the next courses.
