Singaraja– The Faculty of Medicine, as the newest Faculty at the University of Education in Ganesha continues to improve the quality of lecturers. One of them is by holding Instructional Techniques Basic Skills Improvement Training (PEKERTI) in collaboration with the Undiksha Learning Development and Quality Assurance Institute (LPPPM). The activity which took place in the Wijaya Kusuma Hall of the Buleleng District Hospital lasted 10 days, from 7 October to 23 October 2019.
This program is designed in such a way as to provide 40 hours of training for 43 doctors from the Buleleng District Hospital who already have a Special Lecturer Identification Number (NIDK) and are registered as teaching staff at the Undiksha Faculty of Medicine (FK). This activity was opened by Vice Chancellor I Undiksha, Dr. Gede Rasben Dantes, S.T., M.TI., accompanied by the Head of LPPPM Undiksha, Prof. Dr. A.A.I.N. Marhaeni, M.A, and Director of District Hospital. Buleleng, dr. Gede Wiartana, M. Kes. and their ranks. In his remarks, it was hoped that through this activity, teaching lecturers at the Faculty of Medicine could gain knowledge about education (pedagogic) so that they could develop Undiksha and build the Faculty of Medicine into a competitive faculty.
It is hoped that the inclusion of doctors as teaching staff can give color to medical education at Undiksha so that they are able to produce superior human resources for advanced Indonesia. As well as hoping that they can carry out the Tri Dharma, namely education and teaching, research, and community service.
Despite its young age, the Faculty of Medicine is encouraged to contribute to education, especially in the medical field, for the people of Bali and Indonesia. This academic who graduated from the doctoral program at the University of Indonesia also expressed his appreciation to all parties, such as the Regional Government, the Regent, the Deputy Regent, the Director of the Hospital and his staff, the doctors who had contributed greatly to the establishment of the Faculty of Medicine. Note, the Undiksha Faculty of Medicine has its own specialty, namely medical tourism, so it is expected to become a strength point in the future for medical education. (hms)
