Project to transform traditional
training curriculum into smart form
Sharjah Municipality has enhanced its electronic
services with new 17 services in conjunction
with lunching its website with a new form. This
comes in the framework of implementing the
strategic plan developed for the comprehensive
and smart transformation and the completion of
all services electronically in order to cope up with
the technological development globally in various
fields and achieve the highest levels of customer
satisfaction.
Riad Abdullah Aylan, Director General of Sharjah
Municipaliy has stressed that the Municipality always
seeks to develop and update the municipal work to
conform to the digital development witnessed by
UAE and the institutions and departments of the
Emirate.
Aylan noted that the electronic services provided
by the municipality’s new website help people to
complete several transactions, which are a matter
of concern for large sectors of the society, whether
individuals or companies.
The services provided include smart services, which
can be completed via the electronic website and
smartphones and other electronic services that allow
users to offer their transactions and complete some
procedures through the website. Then, the services
will be followed up until the concerned department
completes them.
Specialized companies have submitted a new project to transform the
traditional training curriculum to smart curriculum in order to cope up with
the spirit of modern learning, which depends on the virtual education via
computers and cellphones by the use of Internet.
Head of General Security of the Emirate of Dubai Lieutenant General Dhahi
Khalfan Tamim was briefed on the smart education project during a meeting
held in his office. Present at the meeting were Major General Ahmed Hamdaan
Bin Dalmouk, General Manager of Department of Training of Dubai Police, his
Deputy Lieutenant Colonel Badran Al Shamsi and Lieutenant Colonel Ahmed
Merdas, Director of Training Design and Development Department.
Tamim listened to an explanation about the project. The project included a
method to transfer the printed curriculum to electronic curriculum along
with the possibility to add all effects necessary, such as short movies and
illustrative means. Hence, the largest number of trainees could benefit from
the project easily in any place through virtual classes, in which there will be a
communication between the students and lecturers and among the students
themselves.
In addition, Tamim was briefed on the methods of assessment, exams and
results included in the project. He directed to seek accuracy, in case of applying
the project, in terms of sitting exams via the Internet. Accordingly, he advised
to hold written exams before a supervision committee, while the study may be
conducted via the virtual means.
At the end of the meeting, Mr. Tamim emphasized the need to cope up with
the age, enter the smart education into the security-training curriculum and
benefit from all the modern applications and means in education.
