More than 250 participants from the sixty project schools of the “Support Programme on fostering Communities of Practice to enhance small class teaching” in 2017-2018 attended the Thematic Workshops organized by the Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching (CELT) on 30 September, 2017.
The whole-day event commenced with the Welcome Speech and the introduction of the support service of the programme by Dr. Ko Po Yuk, the Director of CELT, followed by parallel sessions on three different themes: “Self-Directed Learning” conducted by Professor Chiu Chi Shing, Co-Director of CELT (Development), “e-Learning” conducted by Dr. Angus Chan, and “STEM” conducted by Mr. Wong Chi Kin. Participants could choose to attend the session according to their own interests or the needs of their schools.
Parallel case-sharing sessions on the four core subjects (Chinese Language, English Language, Mathematics, and General Studies) were held in the afternoon. The selected cases are good practices illustrating how the three different themes integrated in the pedagogical design so as to enhance the learning and teaching effectiveness in small class setting.
A meeting between the teachers of the cluster schools and their respective tutors was held after the case-sharing sessions for them to exchange views and have an initial understanding of the needs of the participating schools. The participants found the workshops inspiring and fruitful.
