Gombak, 23 February 2021. More than 40 academics from Ahmad Ibrahim Kulliyyah of Laws (AIKOL) attended a training programme on humanising legal education in the online environment. This is in line with the continuous improvement activities at AIKOL to elevate the competency of academics in facing the challenges of remote teaching and learning during the pandemic.

Participants discussed with Associate Professor Dr Shahrul Mizan bin Ismail - an alumnus of AIKOL who lead the workshop – regarding the Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs under remote learning environment to ensure intrinsic motivation of students are taken care of.  The workshops further introduced some methods to improve the ‘teacher immediacy’ between academics and students in an online learning setting. The participants were reminded of the need to carefully design the instruction for face 2 face or online environments.
