After delivering “Text and Context: A Postcolonial Equation” on Guest Lecturing held by Faculty of Literature, Culture, and Communication, and English Education study program of UAD on Friday, April 19, 2013, this morning A/Prof. Tony Simoes da Silva (Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies and FEC Chair, School of English Literatures and Philosophy, Faculty of Arts, University of Wollongong, Australia) gave a debriefing of professional development for UAD lecturers. That professional development was about “Local Knowledges, Transnational Pedagogies” focusing on capacity building in an academic institution, teaching and learning, career planning and developing a research profile, keeping balance of academic job description, and establishing a research profile. Held at Kampus 2 UAD, the lecturers attending this program were from Faculty of Literature, Culture, and Communication, English Education study program, and English Education Master Program of UAD. They were so glad to get those kind of information that could improve their knowledge and their teaching and research skill. (Eci)
