Facebook for Learning

Dear All,

The Centre for Medical Education (CtME), with the assistance of the Learning Resources Dept, will resume the continuing series of lunchtime educational sessions in support of advancing e-learning and use of digital resources at IMU.

The topic for next session is "Facebook for Learning" on Wednesday, 14 April 2010 (14/4/10) from,
12.15pm to 2.00pm. The venue is E-Lab 1 (next to Library), 3rd Floor, Bukit Jalil. The audience will be Academic Staff & Students. Please note that packed lunch will be provided after the session.

Description:
Facebook is a social utility that connects people with friends and others who work, study and live around them. Believe it, or not, there are more than 400 million Facebook users today. In this learning session, we will explore some possibilities on how we could use Facebook as a tool to facilitate student learning. During the hands-on part, participants will be asked to create either a Facebook Group or Facebook Page, so having a Facebook account would be strongly recommended.

As its on first come basis, please register early to ensure a place in the learning session. If you miss a session, visit the E-Learning Innovation Centre inhttp://www.elearning.imu.edu.my to find the appropriate presentations and learning resources.

URGENT! Canteen

Dear all,

I have messaged you once about this already, but I'm not sure if you've received it. I apologise if you have not, I have been having troubles with my phone.

Please inform all your batchmates that if they eat in the canteen they have to clean up after themselves. This is because to bring down the price of the food the operators have decided to hire fewer workers, hence we all have to make the habit of cleaning up after ourselves (which really isn't anything more than placing our plates on the trolley and cabinets in the canteen). Thanks everyone for their hard work and future compliance to this. :)

On a related note, De Brio is planning to hire two student part time workers for the cafe in the library. The pay is RM 5 per hour, and the timing is from 9 AM to 5 PM. Those interested, please contact me at 016-2578-520 with your name, ID number and contact details. Please keep in mind that they will be hired by the owner of De Brio, not IMU.

Open Day money is coming, don't worry. Just a few issues I need to sort out. However, I would like to greatly apologise for this delay.

Warmest regards,
Zia Shah

Feedback On Dress Code from Visitors

The university is glad to inform all students that many comments on our students’ good dressing were received from various visitors such as government officials from Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE), Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA) formerly known as LAN, visitors from other universities and deans from our partner universities.  The visitors were very impressed and commented that IMU students dress very well and professional.  This has really differentiated IMU students from other colleges/universities.

Change In Word Count for AIR

Please be informed that the word count for the AIR topic will be changed to 300 words excluding references.

AIR is an essay that you have to write so your word count is the TOTAL word count and NOT the word count for each subsection. You aren't supposed to write them in subsections anyway. The questions are there for guidelines only.

Please do not submit your AIR too soon (advice from seniors) or you might fall victim to sudden changes to the requirements (like this change in word count). The deadline for AIR is the 23rd of April 2010.

Regarding AIR

Regarding the AIR word count we are currently waiting for clarification whether the word count is 300 per section or for the whole essay. Stay tuned.

Malaysian Studies Project!

Be sure to check them out and give them that 1 Malaysia spirit and support!

Hey guys, don't forget to check the I: Drive for the groupings for the Wellness Module.

7. Open the file which you either view or save and find your name.

8. You will have determined which Wellness group you will be in.

Confusing for some of you? Here's a simpler way.

If your name falls in between these people you are in their group.

Group 1: Ahmad Hilmi bin Mohd Arif -> Gursimran Kaur (24th March)

Group 2: Haesal Tan Li-Yean -> Lu Yu-Hsien (26th March)

I thought we can't access I Drive anymore?

The Wellness file is still intact, and the list is accessible there. Just login using your ID and password that you use to login to IMU computers.

Thanks.

Change of Venue for MMS on 25/03/10

> Please be informed that the tissue histology sessions on Thursday 25 March 2010 are to be held in the MDL 8. This is because the pathlab is not available on that day. I have informed Rozlin to inform students of the relevant groups about the change of the venue.

That means the MMS sessions for Thursday 25 March 2010 will be in MDL 8 instead of the Pathology lab.

MDL 8 and Pathology Lab are both on the 4th floor.

IMU Video Game Session!

On the 24th of March, the IMU Ball 2010 committee will be organising a GAMING EVENT! There will be BAND HERO and DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION available so start practising at home, be it dancing in the streets or singing in the showers. Talent or no talent, we want to see all of you there. It will be a rocking good time so do drop by, relax a little and relieve yourself of the stress that's found around every corner within IMU. Who doesn't love those funky dance mats and a chance to shine at playing a guitar or beating away clumsily at the drums. It doesn't happen every day in IMU so DO NOT MISS OUT ON YOUR GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW OFF TO YOUR PEERS YOUR SUPERB HAND-EYE COORDINATION!

The event will be held at the student lounge with the PS3 set and games there whereas the dance dance revolution game will be organised within the very cosy enclave of the dance room. Light snacks and refreshments will be available in case you have burnt off all the calories and need some refuelling. Oh and we have GRAN TURISMO 5!!! For those of you who have always dreamt of releasing your inner rempit, seize this chance now!

Each participant will be required to pay a small fee of RM3 for 2 rounds. The winner of each round gets to stay on to play until he/she is beaten to pulp and faces the shame of losing.

New Canteen Operator

Dear All,

We wish to advise that Jumbo (current main operator) at Pandan Serai Cafe has advised that they will not be renewing their contract which expires on 31 March 2010. Jumbo has indicated that they have been losing money since operation and that their losses were higher since the introduction of vegetarian food by Sri Emas. They had approached us for committed pax and for exclusivity, however, the request does not meet IMU's requirement. From the beginning it had been made known to all operators that:

* There would be 1 main operator and maximum of 3 sub-operators
* No restriction or exclusivity extended to operators to meet IMU's requirement ie student's limited break time, reduction of re-queuing for other items and Cafe Committee will control the pricing/portions

We are aware that recently Jumbo have been awarded a contract to supply food for a committed 300 pax daily with a company.

We have now secured an interested party (after approaching 3 potential operators) to take over as a main operator at Pandan Serai Cafe. Append below is a brief outline of the New Operator - Impian Rasa Foods for your information:

Impian Rasa Foods was registered on 13 November 2008 and it is managed by family members under the ownership of Puan Nor Azizah binti Mustaffa. Currently they have 3 restaurants under the name of :

- Restoran Mutiara Pedas
- Restoran Mutiara Pedas - Taman Industri
- Restoran Mutiara Iman.

Their main operation, a restaurant is based at Puchong.

They are currently operators of Kesas Canteen since 2008 and they are also supplying packed food to SP Setia Berhad on a daily basis. They are also one of IMU caterers.

Jumbo will cease operation at 3pm on Friday 26th, to clear and clean for handover on Saturday 27th to IMU.

Impian Rasa Foods (New Operator) will take over on Saturday 27th to prepare for operation on Monday 29th as main operator at Pandan Serai Cafe.

Regards,
Wai Ling

MUET & IELTS workships in IMU (2 Apr & 10-11 Apr)

Dear Reps,

Just a gentle reminder as I am seeking your assistance to inform all the students for all programmes that the above 2 workshops would be run in IMU soon. Do inform the students and it would be a good idea for you to pass the names of those interested to Ms Danielle Ho at the Postgraduate Office [Office Ext 1302] on Level 1. as she is in charge of the registration.

Apparently, there are still a number of IMU students who are yet to fulfill their minimum English Language IELTS & MUET requirements. It is especially important for all PMS/PDT as well as the MPharm and the Health Science students who have opted for credit transfer to the universities in Australasia fulfill these requirements asap before the matching exercise carried out in early Sem 5.

Please find the attached flyers containing the necessary detailed information, although please note that the date for IELTS workshop is now 10-11 April 2010 and the MUET programme will now be in the afternoon from 1.30-5.30pm.

Thanks a lot for all your assistance.

Cheers,

IMU GYM

To all students of IMU,

The IMU Gym is one of the most highly trafficked areas in IMU. However, it does lack some things. The treadmills have a few problems, there are not enough weights, and too few dumbells, and the equipment malfunctions on occasion. The IMU Health & Fitness Club has been working since day one trying to make it better, and have achieved a small measure of success (evidenced by lockers in the gym, and replacing some wires in the circuit machine).

Amongst other requests, we are lobbying for a computer, a radio (or speakers at least), a security camera, air purifiers, additional weights, consistent maintenance and above all, new equipment. And so on, and so forth...

HOWEVER,

It has become extremely difficult as of late to convince the management in IMU to part with the funds necessary to get all this. This is mainly because of the belief that the gym is not used very often. Because of this, from the 12th of March Onwards there will be a sign-in sheet attached to to door of the gym, or the board next to it.

It is not compulsory to write in one's name and student ID. But in doing so, you will give us proof that the gym IS being used, which will give us the numbers we need to perhaps convince management to speed up in giving the the gym, and the students what facilities we deserve.

So if you happen to use the gym, please write your name and ID as a show of support. Proof of usage could be all we need to convince IMU that the gym needs upgrading/fixing/maintenance, and needs it now.

On a side note, we are also looking for potential candidates for the new committee. Interested individuals please SMS your name, course and student number to 012-3040-397, or email imugym@gmail.com. We will update everyone when application forms will be available.

Thank you all,
Arthur Leow
