8 March till 9 March 2023 I am invited as a speaker to a community event under the UTCT KTGS grant. The audience was from Rumah PAKATs, a shelter for the abandon child due to HIV and also a shelter for the homeless. Through this event, the children which range between 9 years old to 17 years old were exposed to a digital marketing. They have their own product which is a Chocolates Cookies and we trained them a basic digital marketing and IT literate exposure.
The session for this first week of the event are more on theoretical input, next week which is 16 March they have to implement the theory and practice doing marketing and sell their goods during the PKATS Carnival.
Besides delivering inputs of digital marketing using Canva, which they need to create a posters, I am also involving in the technical part which preparing all the printed props such as banners, bunting, and posters. Also, packing for 15 participant files, preparing hampers and make sure the montage video is ready.

MM Week plays such an important role to supplement the curriculum, so much so, that even during the pandemic, it was still conducted. For the past 2 years, it was conducted fully online. Even though we could not meet face to face, the online MM Week managed to gather students and professionals together remotely. Alhamdulillah, the feedback that we received from the students and industry panels has always been encouraging, be it online or face-to- face. Year after year, I am a proud witness the growth and maturity of our studentsβ work, which was further validated by the industry panels and juries through their feedback to us.

PiCTL 2022
Since 2018, the Centre for Academic Development (CADe) UPM has organised the Putra InnoCreative Carnival in Teaching and Learning (PicTL), an international competition on teaching and learning. The programme aims to foster an innovative and creative culture of teaching and learning among educators and students.
This year’s i-PicTL theme is “Innovation Beyond Limits,” with the goal of promoting the growth and advancement of quality teaching and learning innovations. i-PicTL2022 aims to celebrate and showcase exciting achievements in teaching and learning innovations among educators, researchers, policymakers, students, and the general public. A variety of programs are planned to enrich our participants’ experiences, including keynote speeches, web talks, workshops, awards, and a poster competition.
After a year of experimenting with the best teaching practices, I am challenging myself to participate in i-PicTL2022. The innovation is called POMI (click to view the presentation). I am inspired by the POMODORO task management technique and motivated by my student testimonials. Alhamdulillah, I received a silver medal for my innovation. I’m overjoyed and grateful, and I’m aiming for a gold medal for my next teaching and learning innovation.
Alhamdulillah for the wonderful event. This is an event celebrating the excellence of both the academic and the supporting staff who excelled in their services during the 2019-2020 season. Due to the fact that the pandemic will strike the world in early 2020, the event has been postponed (2019), and this is the first time we have hosted the event virtually.
A part of the session is a sharing session from YBhg. Professor Emeritus Dato’ Dr. Sheikh Omar Abdul Rahman (a.k.a Pak Syeikh), with the title of the talk “π΄πππ πππ πͺπππππ πππ πΊπππ πππ πΆπππππππππππ π»πππππππππππππ: π΄πππππ π°π π―πππππ!” The following is the take-home message I gathered during the talk:
Develop the mindset of the Champion! How?
High Energy!
Always wanting to raise the bar!
Keep going and not considering giving up!
Ihsan, always give your best, even when nobody is watching, without expecting rewards⦠with integrity, sincerity, resulting in high quality, perfection, and excellence, Allah SWT always watching you- Prof Datin Paduka Aini
Give your best !
Congratulation to all the achievers! They are very inspiring ^^ That’s me participating in one of the “Selfie Creatively”~ virtual Guru hehe.
