    A successful edition of the IADIS International Conference on Cognition and Exploratory Learning in Digital Age was held in Porto, Portugal, December, 14- 16, 2005. This conference was endorsed by IEEE Technical Committee on Learning Technology and by the Japanese Society of Information and Systems in Education. Endorsed by: Endorsed by: The CELDA 2005 Conference aimed to address the main issues concerned with evolving learning processes and supporting pedagogies and applications in the digital age. There had been advances in both cognitive psychology and computing that have affected the educational arena. The convergence of these two disciplines is increasing at a fast pace and affecting academia and professional practice in many ways. Paradigms such as just-in-time learning, constructivism, student-centered learning and collaborative approaches have emerged and are being supported by technological advancements such as simulations, virtual reality and multi-agents systems. These developments have created both opportunities and areas of serious concerns. The following nineteen areas were object of paper and poster submissions: Acquisition of expertise; assessing progress of learning in complex domains; assessment of exploratory learning approaches; assessment of exploratory technologies; Cognition in education; collaborative learning; educational psychology; exploratory technologies (such as simulations, VR, i-TV and so on); just-in-time and learning-on- demand; learner communities and peer-support; learning communities & web service technologies; pedagogical issues related with learning objects; learning paradigms in academia; learning paradigms in corporate sector; life-long learning; student-centered learning; technology and mental models; technology, learning and expertise; virtual university. The 2005 edition received 175 submissions from more than 30 countries.

    Reaz, M., Hussain, S., & Khadem, S. (2007). Multimedia university: A paperless environment to take the challenges for the 21st century. AACE Journal, 15(3), 289-314. Multimedia University: A Paperless Environment to Take the Challenges for the 21st Century MAMUN BIN IBNE REAZ AND SAZZAD HUSSAIN International Islamic University Malaysia Kuala Lampur, Malaysia SHAJIB KHADEM Multimedia University Salangor, Malaysia [email protected] Predictability of absolute data transaction for real time information and reduction of incalculable data delivery time are the major factors to lead the global education as well as economic system towards a paperless environment. Some universities such as the University of Phoenix, Western Governors University, UK Open University, University of California, and Hong Kong University are playing a pioneering role to achieve this paperless environment in the respective campuses. Multimedia University (MMU) is a very distinctive university and is considered the jewel of Malaysia’s bold plan to enter the world arena of 21st century information technology. The university is now operational with intelligent building systems, wireless technology system, satellite tele-education, a digital library, state-of-the- art learning, and research facilities, as well as an integrated computer education management system. MMU runs a paperless administration with the full-fledged e-governance having all these facilities. E-governance is about the use of information technology to raise the quality of the services organizations deliver for its management. The university also provides a Registry of Graduates homepage that not only eliminates fraud, but also complements the e-governance Association for the Advancement of Computing In Education Journal, 15(3) system, preparing itself for a truly web-based society.

  • MMU MCO Report 28-04-2020
    Our Finest Hour MMU’s Response to COVID-19 and MCO A definitive summary of the university’s collective response to the global pandemic, in ensuring continuity of the academic process and campus operations 30 April 2020 Message from the Acting President The COVID-19 global pandemic is an event unlike anything humanity has faced in the modern era. Since we have no idea how cataclysmic it would be compared to prior outbreaks, such as the 1918 Flu pandemic, or the 14th century Black Death, we have no choice but to disrupt our collaborative way of life, or face contracting and succumbing to the disease. However, life must go on. Each of us must remain true to our vocation, come what may. Obstacles were meant to be overcome, gaps to be bridged, puzzles to be solved. As such, for academicians, our dedication towards nurturing the future leaders of the country should not waver. Fortunately, on 18th March 2020, the Ministry of Higher Education released to the media an FAQ which provided guidance for institutes of higher learning in the country during the Movement Control Order (MCO). Among other things, the FAQ expressed that the Ministry was cognizant that a number of universities were ready to deliver its courses online, due to the availability of requisite infrastructure, as well as lecturers who were capable of utilizing said facilities. MMU was established by government mandate to be a game-changer in Malaysian academia. It was for that reason that MMU, from day one, had put in place the requisite infrastructure for online teaching and learning, which was continuously upgraded over the years.

  • Excellence At Government-Linked Universities (Glu)
    EXPECT EXCELLENCE AT GOVERNMENT-LINKED UNIVERSITIES (GLU) MASSIVE OPEN ONLINE COURSES (MOOCS), OPEN ELECTIVES, AND GLUMINOR ABOUT GOVERNMENT-LINKED UNIVERSITIES (GLU) Government Linked Universities comprising of Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (UTP), Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Multimedia University (MMU) and Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN). Established in 2016, the alliance aims to synergise their strength for nation building, quality, sustainability and branding. Referring to GLU’s logo, the capital letter ‘A’ is an abbreviation from the initial letter of Alliance. It signifies ‘quality’ in result oriented initiatives in improving higher education through industrial input. The ‘A’ is also designed to illustrate the numeric ‘4’ at a second glance, referring to the four initial members in the alliance; namely Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, Universiti Kuala Lumpur, Multimedia University and Universiti Tenaga Nasional. The outer circle emphasises or brings immediate attention to the letter ‘A’ or ‘Alliance’. It connotes a sense of ‘consensus’ and ‘completeness’ in the world of tertiary education. The logotype is also designed in the fusion of 3 colors; a reflection of the ‘house color’ of participating Universities. Blue reflects stability, confidence and intelligence of the alliance. Red symbolises pragmatism, strength and determination. Lastly, grey provides the effect of balance and composure to the overall logo design. 2 MASSIVE OPEN ONLINE COURSES (MOOCS) The Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA) defines MOOCs within the following four terms : 1. Generally, massive is associated with the capacity of the course offered to serve a large number of learners. While the majority of MOOC has had only a few hundred participants, the number of registered participants in some courses have surpassed 150,000 people.
