About Me
I worked as an Associate Professor at the Department of Physics, Sultan Idris Education University. I earned my Bachelor of Science Education degree (2008) and Master of Physics Education degree (2010) from Sultan Idris Education University. My doctorate in the field of science education at The Hong Kong Institute of Education in 2015 (recently renamed The Education University of Hong Kong). My research focused mainly on educational technology, technology-enhanced science learning, STEM education, laboratory-based learning via the Internet, and open source-based data acquisition.
My main contribution to UPSI, as a pioneer to Pro Forma System planning, implementation, and monitoring for the entry of information related to courses. For UPSI Staff Satisfaction Survey (U3S), as a coordinator for planning, managing, developing, and monitoring satisfaction survey among Internal UPSI staff. For ISO 9001:2015, as an Internal Lead Auditor for planning, managing, and monitoring the audit process with Exemplar Global Certified Lead Auditor ISO 9001:2015.
Teaching Philosophy: As a teacher educator, student-centered learning via educational technology is my main focus and trends in contemporary science education need to emphasise the benefits of out of lecture room learning experiences to help university link science with everyday life. With the help of state-of-the-art technology, mobile devices—particularly smartphones—have the ability to work as data-logging tools for students to perform hands-on STEM activities and scientific investigation. As a result, searching for research funding and developing new education products are very essential in researching about using technology to enhance science learning. In the future, it is important to initiate and create an alternative method/strategy of teaching science including life-wide learning, experiential learning, and the effective use of STEM education at all levels of education.
