The Hook- Up with Ser Shaw Hong

Ever thought a rigid and dull subject could actually be very interesting and realizes it's own opportunities?

Mr.Ser Shaw Hong came down to KDU University College on 4th August 2011 and presented on "Cultural Heritage Tourism and Development of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya". Cultural heritage is usually a dry topic to discuss about but his enthusiasm towards the topic sees a very good reason for students to be attending the "Hook-Up" Series this time.

The event took place at KDU University College, Damansara Jaya Campus, organized by the Department of  Creative Arts. The turn out was great and more than what was expected. It was a great head start for him.

Internship KDU students

Minggu Kebudayaan Melayu 2011

Written by
Chan Wai Yee, MKM Secretary (A-Level Arts Student)

MKM is back in KDU University College! Rallying the torch of eight years of impeccable college tradition, it was to come to spirit within the walls of KDU University College; a cultural rendezvous. The rhapsody was summoned in a single file labelled as the Minggu Kebudayaan Melayu (MKM), taking flight on the third week of July 2011. The climax of these series of esteemed events was symphonised in a Charity Gala Dinner dubbed Malam Kebudayaan Melayu which speaks in tune of Evolusi-Merentasi Zaman as its theme. It highlights the transition of the Malay culture in Malaysia.

The first round of the "Teaching and Learning Colloquium" had a great respond from participants. However, here comes the second round of the colloquium, where modern technologies and new terms are incorporated in today's teaching. Technology grows rapidly, thus, teaching and learning in education has to also grow and change in ways to keep the audience entertained and focused.
