I was the coordinator in addition to the authorship duties. I co-authored a book "University Study Skills", KFUPM, 2006. The book is used as the text book for the "Study Skills" course offered to the Preparatory year students at KFUPM. I participated in a lesson as part of open learning resources of the MIT Blossoms initiative through Scitech-Aramco-Saudi Arabia program. The title of the lesson is “Is There a Connection between Water Desalination and Making Pickles?” The lesson was posted on the MIT-Blossoms Website in 2011. IV. CONSULTATION ACTIVITIES I served as a member of a team (5 members) working on a two-years funded project for Bin-Zahr Company (One of the SABIC companies that produces polypropylene), AlJubail, Saudi Arabia. We worked on the upgrading of the quality control laboratories at Bin-Zahr by introducing new equipment related to flow injection systems, evaluating the existing equipment and validating all lab equipment and system operating procedures used in their laboratories. We worked also on the development of the technical staff in the laboratories (teaching courses pertinent to their lab techniques and instrumentation, good lab practice and safety in chemical laboratories). I served as member in an Academic Consultation Team for Hail University for the year 2008. 8 V. STRATEGIC STUDIES I am participating in the strategic studies conducted by the Strategic Studies Unit at the Research Institute of the KFUPM. I served as an active member in the following projects: 1. A Future Plan for University Education in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 2005 – 2008 (AAFAQ project). I worked as a member with the Quality and Scientific team, the Programs and Curricula team, and the Report Writing team. I participated in all relevant workshops held at the national level in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (Riyadh, Jeddah and Dhahran). 2. A Strategic Plan for Judiciary and Notarization Sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (November 2008 up to date). The project is concerned with the development of a strategic plan for the KSA Ministry of Justice over the next 20 years. I am working as a member of the strategy team and I participated in the relevant workshops held at the national level of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for all stakeholders. 3. Currently, I am involved in a project to set the Second KFUPM strategic plan (2011-2020). VI. TEACHING ACTIVITIES Courses Taught I am teaching various undergraduate and graduate chemistry courses; these courses include: general chemistry, analytical chemistry , instrumental methods of analysis, electroanalytical chemistry, analytical spectroscopy, separation methods, Chemometrics, seminar and senior projects. Coordination of Classes I coordinated and participated in teaching of the large lecture format freshman chemistry courses Chem 101 and Chem 102 many times Course Material and Curricula Development I chaired a Departmental Committee that was concerned in revising the Chemistry and Industrial Chemistry undergraduate programs in the academic year 1999/2000 I participated, actively, in selection of experiments and testing their applicability, writing hand outs to students, modifying and improving the experimental procedures, and compiling integrated manuals for experiments in General chemistry, Analytical chemistry and instrumental chemical analysis courses. I participated actively in the development and revision (in few occasions) of curricula for the undergraduate and graduate analytical chemistry and instrumental analysis courses and in the 9 general chemistry courses. I participated in the development of two upper level undergraduate chemistry courses, namely: Environmental analysis and Trace Analysis. I coordinated and participated with other colleagues in the establishment of a laboratory for a general chemistry course taught to Industrial Management students. I used the WebCT for Instrumental Analysis and general chemistry courses few times over the period 2004-2006. Teaching Honors My students evaluation for teaching was invariably excellent over the years of my service. I was nominated more than once (the last was in the year 98/99) by the Department for the best teacher award in the College of Sciences. I have received the distinguished teaching award for the College of Sciences in the academic year 1988/1989. Supervision of Graduate and Senior Undergraduate and Students Thesis advisor and thesis committee member for more than 15 M.S. and PhD chemistry and chemical engineering students. Supervision of few senior research projects (Chem 411 and Chem 412). VII. ACADEMIC DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES Being an active member in establishing the Academic Development Center (1998-2001) at KFUPM which was promoted later to the Deanship of Academic and Development, I became involved in many University activities pertinent to various academic areas, namely: Peer consultation: I was among a group of 12 faculty members who were trained in a workshop of 30 hr to conduct peer consultations pertinent to teaching throughout the University. In this program we, as peer consultants, offer some help to the faculty members (specially, beginners and junior faculty) who wish to improve their teaching performance. I served as a member of the University assessment group and the E-Learning Committee. I served as a member in a team working on developing personal and employability skills for the graduates of KFUPM and embedding these skills in the academic programs. I served for three years as a member of the Committee responsible for the preparation of the University entrance exam. I was a member in a team formed during 2004 to formulate the course contents and write a handbook on the “University Study Skills”. This course has been approved later as a University requirement for all Preparatory Year students. University/Industry Interaction I served as member in a team (group of 6 faculty members) working on a project funded by the Deanship of Academic Development, KFUPM, as a part of the University Strategic Plan, to formulate a framework for the KFUPM –Industry/business interaction. We conducted 10 workshops, interviews and literature reviews and made appropriate recommendations for such a relationship/partnership. I am serving as member of the Program Assessment Center of the Deanship of the Academic Development at KFUPM over the last five years. I participated in few workshops (2007) sponsored by NCAA (National Commission for Academic Accreditation & Assessment) such as: Developing course and program specifications, Training the trainers. I was the speaker in two session of a workshop organized for the KFUPM faculty members on the course and field experience specifications. I served as a member in an external team that conducted an assessment of the Center of Refining and Petroleum at KFUPM. I am supervising and participating in the "Book Review Program" for the Arabic translation project sponsored by the Saudi Ministry of Higher Education. More than 40 books dealing with all aspects of higher education have been translated. I reviewed about 20 books of these. I participated in the organization and attended many workshops presented by experts from American, Canadian and Australian universities organized annually by KFUPM for the faculty development. Just to name few: Striving for excellence in University Teaching and Learning”, “A discussion Forum on Student Learning at KFUPM”; Using course design to create more significant learning experiences for students; Development educational objectives and learning outcomes; Developing assessment plan to enhance student learning; Graduates for tomorrow's world: Developing university curricula and teaching for generic attributes; Teaching for Learning and many others.
