SRC Announcements (23rd July)

Hi everyone!

MMS Users Committee
We are currently looking for two students from the Medicine faculty to represent the students in the MMS Users Committee. These student representative will be attending MMS Users Committee meetings to discuss on MMS issues and more importantly, how we can improve the MMS. Anyone interested please contact SRC at imusrc@gmail.com or text me at 014-9215715 by Monday, 27 July 2009.

MMS Heart Models Missing
There are two heart models in the MMS (small ones that for the lung model) missing since December last year. Anyone holding on to it, please return it to SRC or MMS immediately. Don't worry, no action will be taken and all of us will appreciate it very much if anyone returns the models :)

MMS X-ray films
Large number of X-ray plates with legend are available in the MMS Imaging room for study, please approach the MMS counter for the list of X-ray slides available.

Academic Board
The following information is now available on the Medicine Academic Board at the Ground Floor notice boards:

  • Academic Calendar (Includes tentative dates of Summatives and EOS)
  • PMS Matching FAQ
  • Alumni Talk dates & information
  • Any upcoming Medicine events (e.g. Conferences)
  • MCEC Meeting Summary
Library Hours
Library will be opened 8am - 8pm on Saturdays from now until December 2009.

Curriculum Map Review
The 'Curriculum Map' for Foundation 1 and Semester 5 is almost ready for use and we would like to have about 10 representative each from M109 and M207 to view the Curriculum Map for comments. (so basically nobody needed from MEDT108, this is just fyi)

The Curriculum Map is fundamentally a system that links together the course objectives for each system/week with all the teaching facilities like Plenary, CSU, MMS, PBL and Hospital Visits.It serves to give students a better guide on their learning objectives and should also facilitate student feedback.

Thanks for the help!

Warmest regards,
Jodie
VP (Med)
