| Summary: | Ramadan Mubarak or Happy Ramadan! Students are returning to campus and beginning the new semester starting on the 18th of March 2024. This date marked the 7th day of Ramadan. During this holy month, the experience is frequently intense, with long days, demanding schedules, and limited time to rest at night. Initially, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) had scheduled the academic calendar requiring students to return to campus. However, following negotiations, the university has taken measures to facilitate students' experiences by transitioning to online classes. Most students preferred to study from home for the first three weeks and continue their ‘Raya’ celebrations at home. Otherwise, there would be problems with starting transport and finances. The learning process for the first three weeks is scheduled to be conducted online, preferably via UiTM’s official Learning Management System (LMS), uFuture as the main platform. (Pekeliling Akademik - Bil 01 - 2024 - Pelaksanaan Pendaftaran Pelajar Baharu Dan Perkuliahan 3 Minggu Pertama Sesi Mac 2024.pdf, n.d.). Even so, lecturers are also allowed to use other systems, such as Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams, and others. Generally, the LMS serves as a platform for lecturers to distribute their teaching materials, conduct online activities and assessments, as well as to monitor students' progress and performance. |
