UTAR don clinches first prize in US teaching contest

For going beyond classroom education to ensure her lessons have a lasting impact on her students, Dr Sharon Wilson was awarded first prize in the prestigious International Communication Division Teaching Contest 2020 – the first winner from outside the United States.

“I submitted my entry just to take part in the contest without thinking of winning the first prize. I just wanted to share my project idea with everyone because this was something extremely meaningful and exciting for the students and for Patricia and myself as academicians. “We also shared ideas and trends about global cultural influences, the role, persistence and transformation of culture, beliefs, ethics, tradition and identity in both settings.

She said two students from Delaware are furthering their postgraduate studies in Malaysia and the class had created added value to their understanding of the country and its people.
