'Local varsities can opt to set own <b>MUET</b> target band scores' ? DPM <b>...</b> Posted: 27 Oct 2014 12:42 PM PDT KOTA SAMARAHAN: Local universities will be entrusted to set their own target band scores for the Malaysian University English Test (MUET), beginning next year. Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said this would be the flexibility offered to these institutions under the transition period for them to accommodate the new required minimum English language criteria set for intakes of students. Adding on, he said the new qualifications were determined following discussions among relevant stakeholders who called for better English proficiency among graduates. "We need to ensure that our graduates are proficient in the English language. In Cyberjaya, 300 students of local IPTA (public institutions of higher learning) had been called for interviews by multi-national institutions – only seven passed as the rest could not converse well in English. "This is one of the reasons why we need to raise the band scores. The Employers Association of Malaysia also said something must be done so that graduates of local universities could have a better command of English – not just being able to write, but also able to speak it fluently," he said in response to a question posed during a dialogue at Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (Unimas)'s Dewan Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra here yesterday. Muhyiddin, who is also Education Minister, stressed that multi-national corporations needed graduates who were proficient in English and as such, the minimum qualification set was not 'just an issue' among local universities. "It is an issue to the whole country, not just at university level. Therefore, we decided to raise the qualification. If you enter the university with Band 2, after a couple of years, we expect you to go up to Band 3." He said it would not be sensible for a student to maintain at Band 2 upon graduation. When tabling Budget 2015 earlier this month, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced that starting next year, the general condition for student intake to higher learning institutions of at least Band 1 in MUET would be raised so as to increase their self-confidence and skills to communicate in English. The new minimum qualification for Arts and Social Science studies has been upped to Band 2 (and |
New conditions for <b>MUET</b>: <b>Universities</b>' senate given flexibility of <b>...</b> Posted: 26 Oct 2014 03:59 PM PDT SINTOK: Higher learning institutions (IPTA) in the country will be given flexibility in implementing the new qualifying conditions for the Malaysian University English Test (MUET) which will start next year. Second Education Minister Datuk Seri Idris Jusoh said the intake of students to these institutions was subject to approval by the senate of the respective universities, therefore, implementing the new conditions could be to the discretion of the senate. "Actually, the statement made by the prime minister when tabling Budget 2015 (on the new qualifying conditions for MUET) recently, was well received by all the universities. "However, allowance can be given to their senate because based on the Universities and University Colleges Act, the university senate has the power to determine the entry of students into the university," he said after a working visit to Universiti Utara Malaysia, here, yesterday. Idris said the implementation would go on, but flexibility given now considering the current situation (short period for implementation). When tabling Budget 2015, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced that beginning next year, the general condition for student intake to the IPTA of at least Band 1 in MUET would be raised so as to increase their self-confidence and skills to communicate in the English language. The new minimum qualification for Arts and Social Science studies is raised to Band 2 (and Band 3 to graduate) while for studies in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), it is raised to Band 3 (Band 4 to graduate) and Band 4 for Law and Medicine (Band 5 to graduate). On another development, Idris said the ministry would meet with Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia's Institute of Malay World and Civilisation lecturer, Prof Dr Teo Kok Seong who disclosed that 604 Chinese and Indian participants of the National Service (NS) Training Programme could not speak Malay. Idris said the ministry would thoroughly investigate why this situation happened and would take action to overcome the problem. According to Teo, the study was made on 14,000 trainees at 79 NS training camps in 2010. He said the inability of some trainees to communicate in nor understand Bahasa Melayu, resulted in the NS trainers being unable to deliver to them the module on nationhood and citizenship. — Bernama |
