University of Malaysia (OUM) is now eyeing to produce
more specialist nurses for Malaysia. OUM is now
offering the Bachelor
of Nursing Sciences (Honours)
programme to meet the country's acute need for more
specialist nurses. This two-year programme enables
those with the Diploma In Nursing to pursue further
studies in the health and medical fields. OUM university has held discussions with Health Ministry and Malaysian Nursing Board on its plan to offer this degree programme. The programme is offered to holders of a basic diploma in nursing who are registered with the national nursing board, OUM receives overwhelming response from all parties as the programme is unique based on its flexibility. The programme focuses on clinical expertise and direct involvement implemented via clinical training at participating hospitals.
The need for male nurses is high at the current international trend. Male nurses have a more specific role as compared to female counterpart. In wards, management of male patients is better handled by nurses of the same gender. This is an expanding concept and in the future more hospitals will be nurse-centric instead of being doctor-centric OUM's concept of a university for all and distance learning does not discriminate any gender as it encourages those from both genders of any age to join its programmes. OUM has draw out a programme and provide information for all on the need for nurses of both genders. Participation of more male nurses in this degree course, at the ratio of one to ten for male/female is hoped to change the society's view on the involvement of men in the nursing profession |

Open & Distance Learning Pedagogy Centre - The ODL Pedagogy Centre (ODLPC) was established to enhance the delivery system of OUM specifically in the areas of teaching and learning. It aims to realize the vision of OUM in becoming a world class leader and innovator in pedagogical sciences related to open and distance learning.Beginning January 2007, Open and Distance Learning Pedagogy Centre will begin the research : Developing Models of Effective and Meaningful Learning in an ODL Environment Using Multimode Technologies for Selected Subjects. This new research highlights the development of learning models for the foundation courses. OUM adopts a blended learning approach to suit the needs of its 60,000 Open and Distance Learners. The blended learning approach in OUM encompasses face-to-face, self-managed learning and e-learning or online learning. In an open and distance learning (ODL) environment where instructors and learners have limited face-to-face contact, it is crucial that the teaching and learning practices meet the learners' needs. Serious consideration is needed to ensure whether the existing blended learning model truly generates meaningful learning among learners and satisfy their needs and expectations. |
