Assalamualaikum, salam sejahtera dan salam 1 Malaysia...
It's been a week since my Studio for the new semester began. Time certainly flies. Kinda hard to believe that I am now in my final year in USM - final year, man... And it's been almost a year since I last post anything in any blogs... Hampir lupa macam mana nak start... I think age has certainly taken its toll on me...
This semester, the studio welcomes back A.P. Dr Kausar Hj. Ali as our studio coordinator, along with A.P. Dr. Hassim Mat, Mr. Abdul Ghappar Othman and Mr. Jamil Jusoh aka Mr JJ. Tunjukajarkanlah kami...
Studio pada semester ini akan fokus ke arah membangunkan rangka kerja conceptual dan metodologi tentang pengenalpastian isu-isu dan masalah perancangan, dan untuk menilai implikasinya terhadap komuniti dan stakeholders. Studio projek pulak akan involve penyediaan pelan-pelan fizikal such as Rancangan Struktur, Rancangan Tempatan, Rancangan Kawasan Khas dan lain-lain, sebagaimana yang dinyatakan dalam Akta Perancangan Bandar dan Desa, 1976 (Akta 172). Reference also should be made to relevant laws and Acts including the Local Government Act, 1972 (Act 171), Street, Drainage and Building Act, 1974 (Act 133), Uniform Building By-Laws etc...
So, at the end of the day, students akan develop pemahaman yang mendalam tentang isu-isu dan masalah perancangan dalam perspektif yang holistik, menyeluruh serta boleh mengenal pasti hubungkait dalam dan antara sektor kajian termasuk aspek fizikal, social, ekonomi, alam sekitar, teknologi dan lain-lain... Students also are expected to develop an in-depth understanding of conceptual framework of the planning process termasuklah preliminary study, methodology, pengumpulan dan penganalisisan data, menyediakan pelan-pelan alternatif, serta penilaian, penyediaan anggaran kos dan pelaksanaan projek. Semua ini akan berteraskan kepada prinsip-prinsip pembangunan lestari (sustainable development) dan Local Agenda 21.
Studio projects involve individual and group works. Individual work to encourage innovation, creativity and sensitivity dalam menangani isu-isu alam semula jadi dan alam bina. Kerja berkumpulan pula memberi peluang pelajar menyerlahkan ketokohan kepimpinan, kemahiran mengurus dan semangat kerja berpasukan.
Well... I think I have covered the overall scenario of this semester's Studio and what to expect from us... Harap-harap semua yang direncana dapat dilaksanakan dengan baik dan jayanya, InsyaAllah...
Quotable Quotes :
“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out
of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at
my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
