Five semesters ago I was appointed as course coordinator for my English for General Communication course. I don’t think I ever announced it on the blog. I had to coordinate the every semester course which entails ensuring course slides are copacetic, the instructors in my team have optimal scheduling, manual registration (and there was a lot of it) goes smoothly the first three weeks, and filing of all paperwork, course slides, attendance forms, timetables, assignment documents and other bits and bobs are done and sent to their proper resting places for auditing. Every semester I also had to attend and present the course report during mid-semester and end-of-semester meetings.
The job is not difficult, but it does require a lot of coordination — like the position title says. Part of the coordination needs plenty of procedures and self-scheduling. It was tiring — especially at my age.
Next semester I am required to mind only the classes assigned to me. It was an illuminating experience and yesterday I had the honour of calling and chairing for the last EGC meeting as coordinator.
