Medical Microbiology

Salam everyone and hope you have a pleasant time ahead.

Its been such a long time since this blog was last updated. Even the supposed owner of the blog seems to be forgetting about it, but it is understandable due to the hectic schedule that we have for some time. Since the last update, many things have passed, we have the sport's carnival, and is now in our third weeks of Medical Microbiology block.

Recently, it is a good thing that the student is becoming more and more aware of the purpose of having a batch email for information sharing. However, it seems that some of the student or most of them do not follow the proper etiquette and manner when using our batch email.

From now on, please, for those who wants to share anything, an info, a video, or reply to a certain lecture or any given post, please do so by stating your name. If you think that you are doing a good thing, the right thing, than I think there will be no problem for you to state your God given identity.

People are complaining left and right, and even the lecture too, about this certain kind of attitude, which, as it seems, something that our batch is famous for. Our attitude. So please, after this, any email without proper identification will be deleted. You have been warned.

As the Malay saying goes, baling batu sembunyi tangan, dont do this as this is such a cowardly act. Hope we can all coperate for the benefit of our batch.

Thank you.

:)

Behavioural Sciences II

Salam guys,

Happy holiday to all and hope you have a pleasant holiday wherever you are. First of all, I would like to apologise for the late update. In order to ensure that our lecture is minimally intruded while they are away on their business, I wish this can make things clearer for everyone.

For our Behavioural Science block, we will have an individual assignment and a group assignment. For the individual assignment, it will take course as the block goes, meaning, the whole block.

For this week, your holiday week, (7 December onward) you just have to identify your daily routine or behaviour, or as it is termed, collect a baseline data. From there, select, identify and work on a spesifc behaviour which you think can be modified or best used for the assigment, for example correlation of sleeping time with wake up time, eating habit with weight increase or decrease, or study time with exam marks.

When you have identified it, then, as we started the block (14 December onward) and for the next three weeks you have to work on that specific behaviour that you have choose and collect your related data. Then, by the 4th week, 28 December, you should be ready with all the data and presentation, and begin your writing set up.

For better understanding, please open the Gmail, download the latest instruction from Madam Firdous and read these following documents in these order :

Behaviour Assignment Modification Description Edited
Behavioural Modification Additional Reference
Behavioural Sciences Presentation Project Description : For Group Assignment

Please read the first two documents carefully and understand it. This is for your own good as it involves your continuous assessment marks. Wish everyone will do well in it. For the group assignment, I think you all can tackle it yourself as a group.

Again, have the best of time on your holiday. Be safe
:)

Behavioural Science

Assalamualaikum,

Before we start with Behavioural Science, the week after our holiday, we will be having a CHET reflection/perception session. Each of the group must be prepared with one slide, one slide only, as a presentation. During the session, each group must come forward with all of their members but only one will present. Among the things that must be presented is/are :

• What have you learn from the visit, one that you thing will serve you well as a medical student, and for the future as a doctor, if God willing we will actually become one.

• Best visit and worst visit, and why is it so and what can you learn from that visit.

And then for those who havent submitted their softcopy, hardcopy or the CHET form, please do so and submit it yourself to Dr. Tayyab. Thats all regarding CHET.

Behavioural Science

The notes, instructions and all ( I dont know what it is since I havent looked at it yet) have been uploaded in the Gmail. Please do not delete it, first. Then please read it regarding your individual assignment. After the Patho final of course.

I have been given a copy (hardcopy) of the notes, scl, and all of the things regarding the course, which I will make a copy for each group, as instructed by the lecturer. From there, the onus fell on the group to distribute the notes and instruction. Hopefully, I can give it to you all by Thursday but I highly doubt it as there are so many of it. So it will be ready for your group by Friday. So be patient for the time being.

Again, as a reminder, there are individual assignment for the next block so check the Gmail and read the instructions.Spread the words to your friends and make sure no one get left out.

Good luck for your Final :)

3) General patho. timetable

Aslm & salam sejahtera,
Dear students,
You should have got the ttable for the whole of semester 1 from Mr Muhd Prashmit earlier. Anyway, i just attach the gpath part in case you haven't got it. The reason is bcos i received queries about eidul adha leave.
There is only 1 scl class on Thursday before the eidul adha. The reflection session can be negotiated with your mentor to reschedule earlier or later.
There are a total of 21 classes, therefore u can only afford to miss 4 classes thru out the block. Plan ahead and plan well.

Dr TH.

p/s: pls download the timetable from our batch gmail/google grp.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

That's all for now. GOOD LUCK for final ppl ^_^
