Date : 6th July
Venue: LT2
Time : 11.45am to 12.45pm

The main issues that will be discussed in this session are:

1. The teaching and learning Methods in the University of Western Sydney.

Noise Level in the Collaborative Study Area

Attention, everyone! This is a forwarded message from Felix, VP of Medical Sciences :

Hey peeps, there have been quite a number of complaints regarding the noise level in the collaborative study area.

Yes, it is a collab area to discuss your studies with your peers. However, collab is regarded as a hang-out place for some students after classes. That is not wrong but when it comes to making unnecessary noises which disturbs other student who wish to concentrate on their work.

I ask all of us to please be more considerate to others and lower our voice level when you are in the collab.

If the problem still persist, harsh action may be taken by the library department. Please do not think of this as a warning, but a reminder to us all to think of others when we are in the collab :)

Update on Respi Notes

Dear All,

 Update on Uploading of Respi Notes: An email has been sent to Dr Vera to catalyze the uploading of the lecture notes. Initially, he mentioned he will "push" lecturers to upload the lecture notes by this Friday (as mentioned during the break). However, this ain't really good for us. Academic Services has sent an email to Dr Vera to upload the lectures immediately. It is very unfortunate that the "Upload-3-days-before" rule is not being strictly enforced and that us students, as well as our learning process, become adversely affected. Will follow up on this and keep u all updated.
