| Summary: | A 2-week mentorship programme was conducted by the English Language Club to help students from the Pra Pendidikan Tinggi (PPT) or the Pre-Diploma programme in their course code, English for Pre-Diploma (ELC030) e-poster assignment. The e-Poster Online Presentation 2021 programme which involved all 11 executive committee members of the English Language Club serving as peer facilitators, aimed to provide sharing of knowledge in e-poster designing and oral presentation skills among university students. Also, the programme was conducted to help fulfil some of the performance indicators (PI) of the university, namely PI32 and 33 which involve the number of communities and full-time undergraduates involved in accredited courses in relation to service-learning respectively. After a briefing by the ELC030 class lecturer, each club member was assigned to a group of students working on a chosen topic for their e-poster assignment. Via online meeting sessions, the facilitators reached out to their respective PPT student groups to share their knowledge on designing informative and attractive e-posters using tools such as Canva and PowerPoint. Additionally, the facilitators helped in raising the PPT students’ confidence and skills in the e-poster presentation by sharing their own experiences, strategies and tips for effective oral presentation. At the end of the programme, the PPT students responded positively and they were satisfied with the efforts made by their senior peers in conducting interesting and constructive mentoring sessions. They also commented that their understanding and skills in oral presentation have improved, making them more confident to present their e-poster assignment at the end of the semester. |
