Dos and Don'ts Courses for Bloggers

The Star Paper
Wednesday May 14, 2008


UiTM may introduce courses related to blogging. UNIVERSITI Teknologi Mara (UiTM) may introduce courses related to blogging to enable bloggers to be more professional and ethical.

Utusan Malaysia quoted Vice-Chancellor Prof Datuk Seri Ibrahim Abu Shah as saying that the freedom in the alternative media was frightening because anyone could blog without any formal training in news writing. Bloggers were also not bound by media ethics and seldom brought to court, he added.

Prof Ibrahim said he would support any proposal to conduct a course for bloggers. “It is timely as we know that bloggers can write and this is only to assist them to be more professional,” he said after a seminar. He was responding to a question on whether UiTM would consider offering a course on blogging as bloggers today were free to write without proper academic training.

Here is my 2 cents view, I agree with VC Prof Datuk Seri Ibrahim Abu Shahto conduct courses on blogging for Bloggers on the dos and donts and what Datuk Nik mentioned earlier that we should more professional...Caring by Sharing Positive Views....
