ISAA Writing and Review Workshop

The Performance Enhancement Team (PET), under the supervision of Dr Abdulhakim Al-Ismaili, Director General of Technical Education, selected Ms Heba Al-Qureshi, QAD Head, Dr Abdulsalam Al-Manthari, QAD officer and Dr Abdulrahman Al-Ismaili, Business Studies Department Head and QAD officer, to become their members and to help them in the facilitation of workshops to be conducted to other CoTs.

The decision was made because IbriCt has been very engaged in the accreditation process. Accordingly, IbriCt's accreditation experiences could be shared with other CoTs and would aid and inspire them in preparation for the accreditation of their own colleges.

To create awareness on ISAA Writing and Review for Al Musana College of Technology staff, a two-day workshop was conducted by the PET from 13-14 November 2019 at Al Musana College of Technology.

Dr Hamdan Al-Manthari, Dean and QAD Chair, Ms Heba Al-Qureshi, Dr Abdulsalam Al-Manthari and Dr Abdulrahman Al-Ismaili, IbriCT PET facilitators  and Dr Michelle Inciso-Mendoza, QAD officer, participated in the event.

Activities on the first day were divided into three parts:

First part: a) Presentation on ADRI model b) Team-building activity c) Practical session on statement areas and d) Feedback session in groups.

Second part: a) Practical session on ADRI template and b) Feedback session in groups.

Third part: a) Practical session on ADRI case study and b) Feedback session in groups.

Activities on the second day were divided into two parts:

First part: a) Narrative writing b) Team building activity and c) Practical session on ADRI case study and narrative writing.

Second part: a) Mock review session b) Feedback session in groups and c) Conclusion and moving forward.

The last day of the workshop concluded by sharing the learnings that were gained from the workshop by the participants and by showing a video which summarizes the two-day workshop.
