This semester I registered to a subject called IT project Management, in short, it is called PMIT. This subject is quiet interesting subject in which it teaches us a lots. I will share about the tips in later post.
For introduction, Our lecturer name is Masita Abdul Rahman, she is a part time lecturer who aslo holds position as Deputy Director of Information Technology Division in the same university which is IIUM. She’s quite experieced person and this is the first thing I like about this course. Someone who teach theory based on the technical experience that she has.
The advantage of having a lecturer who has been in a real field is that he or she can relate directly the real situation into theorotical part of the subject. Indeed, Mdm Masita did that in her class. That makes me not hesitate to ask question about the real world of the field.
The course is all about management, from I can see that the best management teacher is our prophet Muhammad (pbuh), and it is quite unpolite to talk about management especially human management without referring to the “teacher”. So, the drawback that I can see from the course is that it is full of westerns theory without relating to the Islamic theory. This is only my humble opinion. The relavancy of the opinion is somehow subjective.
Although our syllibus is mainly based from the book, we should also include explicitly some of the great theory from Islam to show our generation that our theory is better than this if we implement it correctly. So that our next generation will not forget about our best time once ago.
The method used by Mdm Masita in class is very good. Honestly, I cant think any other way to improve it except for the lecture delivery but this is actually depends on a person and I believe Mdm did her best in that part. Its now back to the student to take full benefits of it.
