Celebrating
and Sharing Excellence of Innovative Teaching Practices |
|
Staff
of the School of Language in Education are responsible for a number of excellent
teaching and learning practices and innovations. These are known to
colleagues working in the various contexts in which they have been developed,
but not by staff of the school as a whole. This means that many excellent
practices are unknown to a wider audience of staff with the result that the
impact on teaching and learning in general is less significant than it might
be. The school seeks funding to support the purchase of materials and
resources and the recruitment of two research assistants to assist staff in
bringing these excellent practices and innovations to the attention of this
wider audience so that more staff of the School can learn from each others'
work. This is intended to lead to a general improvement in the quality of
teaching and learning in the Schools, an improved culture of sharing and
exchanging good practice among academic colleagues. Incidental benefits of
the project might include cross-linguistic, inter-departmental benefits such
as greater understanding of approaches adopted by staff in other departments
and units to solving common problems relating to language teacher education.
Enhanced perceptions of the value of existing achievement of the School are
expected to have a beneficial effect on staff morale, their perception of
their place within the School and a willingness to experiment with different
approaches. |

It
adopts the qualitative research approach and focuses on the role of women. It
examines the fictions in Shanghai in the 1930s and 40s to find out the
relationship between the role of women and the development of society. A
literature search on the works of writers in Shanghai will be conducted.
Psychological and metropolian theories will be utilised for analysis. It is
hoped that the characteristics of women as depicted in the works of the
writers can be identified and its changing roles in the transformation of the
city be analysed. With the help of the questionnaire, an attempt is made to
study the attitude of teachers to gender role with a view to promoting better
awareness and critical reflection. |

MIND 負責製作初小的識字教材套（小學中國語文學生輔導教材套）共十六個單元，已基本完成，但仍需文字學的專家作跟進的修訂校對。 |

小學中國語文科授課語言與教學活動的關係—─廣州話與普通話的比較 |
|
研究主要比較同一位普通話能力甚佳的教師在使用廣州話或普通話教授課小學中文科時課堂活動的差異。老師分別用廣州話及普通話任教兩班的讀文教學，比較各教學程序的時間分配的差異及其原因，以師生答問的情況。教師在普通話組用較多的時間指導糾正學生的發音，其他部分的教學重點及內容較廣州話組簡略。廣州話組學生自願作答的次數多，亦較多主動提問，氣氛較活潑。同一問題老師要求廣州話組較多學生作答，而且內容是比較開放的問題，更會進一步追問。總的來說，教師授課雖用普通話，但其他學習還是廣州話。 |

本研究從形成文學思潮的三大要素即社會文化思潮、文學理論導向及作家作品狀態出發，探討中國當代散文思潮的發展流變規律。認為90年代以後的中國散文，縱向接受了二、三十年代新月派、語絲派的遺風，橫向接受了港台散文的影響，突出体現了通俗與閑適的審美基調。研究成果是發表在《西北大學學報》2001年第三期的論文:《通俗與閑適:90年代中國散文潮流》。 |

方言語匯與香港文學的身份認同

香港回歸前後，西岸掀起了一股研究香港文學的熱潮，其中香港文學的定義成為各方關注的核心。在教育界推廣普通話教學，注意規範的情況下，在文學的領域郤開始大膽地運用不規範的方言，這種不規範的方言是否嚴重威脅到共同語的存在，並且阻礙不同地區的中國人互相溝通，還是反過來，對共同語有一種沖擊的良性作用，將是這個研究的關心所在。 |

Celebrating
and Sharing Excellence of Innovative Teaching Practices |
|
Staff
of the School of Language in Education are responsible for a number of
excellent teaching and learning practices and innovations. These are known to
colleagues working in the various contexts in which they have been developed,
but not by staff of the school as a whole. This means that many excellent
practices are unknown to a wider audience of staff with the result that the
impact on teaching and learning in general is less significant than it might
be. The school seeks funding to support the purchase of materials and
resources and the recruitment of two research assistants to assist staff in
bringing these excellent practices and innovations to the attention of this
wider audience so that more staff of the School can learn from each others'
work. This is intended to lead to a general improvement in the quality of
teaching and learning in the Schools, an improved culture of sharing and
exchanging good practice among academic colleagues. Incidental benefits of
the project might include cross-linguistic, inter-departmental benefits such
as greater understanding of approaches adopted by staff in other departments
and units to solving common problems relating to language teacher education.
Enhanced perceptions of the value of existing achievement of the School are
expected to have a beneficial effect on staff morale, their perception of
their place within the School and a willingness to experiment with different
approaches. |

lesson planning and implementation and how do they address the problems in
the practicum? 2) how do the pre-service teachers structure and formulate
their lesson plans to cater to the real needs and interest of their pupils in
the schools? The methodology: In order to explore the two
questions, the project will collect data through learning journals,

English as a second language during short-term immersion? 4. How do
participants respond to home placements in a foreign country and how might
participant response impact upon language learning during the immersion

This
project is to find out how students of the post-colonial generation perceive
their ethnolinguistic identity, and the status, value and importance of the
three spoken varieties (i.e. Cantonese, Putonghua and English) in the new
socio-political context of Hong Kong. A total of 1048 F.3 students from 28
Hong Kong secondary schools participated in the project. They answered a
questionnaire which includes a matched-guise test. In addition, focus-group
interviews were conducted with a selection of 48 students. The purpose of
this study is two-fold: 1) to
provide an overview of the ethnolinguistic identity of the first
post-colonial secondary school generation and their attitudes towards
Cantonese, Putonghua and English; 2) to identify the factors which are the
most significant in the construction of language attitudes. |

Task-based
learning in English in Hong Kong Secondary Schools |
|
Schools
are the crucial agent of change and teachers are key elements in the process (Fullan,
1991). This study focuses on the micro level (school organisation and teacher
levels) and charts the impact of a wide-ranging intended reform in an area of
the curriculum (secondary schools) in Hong Kong which is particularly
resistant to change because of the prevailing conceptions of teaching,
learning and of knowledge, and the backwash from public examinations. The potential for tensions to appear
is great, which makes this an especially fruitful study. This study is not adopting a fidelity
model which measures TBL in schools against intended or planned use. It is using a mutual adaptation
perspective to look at how and why TBL is manifested differently in different
schools and classrooms in which their unique contexts interplay with various
factors mentioned earlier. |

Teaching
and Learning Action Research Project:
The Relationship between the Teaching-learning Process and Assessment |
|
The
general aims of the whole project are to find out the modes of assessment that
can provide evidence for: i)
establishing a sustainable process of free and open dialogue with students on
how to improve their learning; ii) supporting self-evaluation of students'
learning and the development of lecturer's teaching; iii) the way the
students participate in this programme shapes their understanding of
themselves as teachers (professional identity) in relation to their
understanding of themselves as a person (personal identity). |

Development
of a Classroom Language Data Bank Based on an Exploration of Teachers'
Language Use in Hong Kong Language Classrooms |
|
This
project aimed at setting up a data bank of digitised video-taped authentic,
naturally occuring classroom language episodes in Chinese, Putonghua and
English. Data collected were
analysed in order to identify the characteristics and key components of effective
teacher language output with particular attention to the language of
interaction and the language of instruction. Based on the results of the analysis, teaching materials
have been produced in the purpose of developing competence in the effective
use of language for classroom instruction and for encouraging the interaction
necessary for language learning to take place. |

Development
of a Medium of Instruction Policy for HKIEd |
|
This
project aimed to gather information pertinent to the formulation of an
Institute wide Medium of Instruction policy. It involved a contextual review looking at local
precedents and gathering the views of HKIEd staff and students on key MoI
issues by means of focus group discussion and interviews. The interview protocol was developed
into a questionnaire and after piloting administered to all staff and a
representative sample of students.
Results were analysed with a view to making recommendations for a
provisional policy statement submitted to the Institute's Academic Planning
and Development Committee for finalisation of the policy. |
