“I hope that collaboration will run continuously because education problems need to be discussed altogether. I also hope that the lecturers who are participating in the training can be more attentive so that they can apply it to the campus,” he explained.

Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs Unila, Prof. Bujang revealed that “The inter-lecture science was the same. The differences are lying on quality and integrity, especially on the ability to improve them so that the learning model becomes dynamic.

In responding to the class dynamics, lecturers are required to have the ability to improve more than what just listed on the RPP. Thus, one way to improve the class is by a contextual approach,” he enclosed.[PR Team]
