Tutor Reminder

CHANGE AT THE HELM

We at TCX would like to welcome Associate Professor Dr Santhi Raghavan as the new director of the Centre for Tutor Management and Development (CTMD). Previously, she was the Deputy Director of the Centre for Graduate Studies. Nik Azlina, who was the senior manager of CTMD, is now a senior lecturer in the Faculty of Business and Management. We wish them both well in their new posts and hope that they will continue to contribute to TCX.

CTMD is responsible for the overall management of tutors. So, if you have any queries or comments, you are most welcome to contact the centre. Below are some CTMD phone numbers which could be of use to you:

IMPORTANT DATES

The start of a new semester always presents exciting possibilities. There are new courses to teach, new learners to meet and new opportunities to make learning an enriching experience for all involved.

One thing that tutors need to remember is the importance of deadlines. In order to keep our ship sailing smoothly, we need the cooperation of all tutors to keep to the timeframe stipulated by the Centre for Tutor Management and Development. So, please have a look at the tables below for this semester's Online Marks Entry System (OMES) deadlines and dates of activities.

interesting, by including many real-life application questions
 
factual, based entirely on module contents
 
stimulating, based on relevant industrial needs
 
simple, touching on the main aspects of a subject
