Step Forward to the University Title Bid 向大學正名之路進發 香 A 港教育學院( 教院) 致力發展成為一所以教育為本、 提供多元學科的教育大學。為配合教院的策略性發 展，人文學院自2012年7月1日重整學系架構，建立更多 學科，在過去一年已取得了顯著的成績。首先，本學院的語 文研究榮譽文學士——教院首個非教育學士課程，已於2013 年11月成功通過了香港學術及職業資歷評審局( 評審局) 之 質素保證機制課程覆審，這為本學院之後申請中文研究及英 文研究之學科範圍評審奠定了穩固的基礎。 此外，在2014年4月中，人文學院順利地完成了評審局的 中文研究及英文研究學科範圍評審之實地考察，評審小組在 中期報告中給予非常正面的評價，使本學院將來能從傳統教 育研究擴大到其他重點學科領域，同時亦標誌著向大學正名 之路邁進一大步。為進一步開拓更多的人文學科相關科目， 我們計畫在已獲認可的中文研究及英文研究學科範圍之下， 為學生提供更廣泛的學科選擇、引入雙學士學位課程，及發 展其他相關課程等。 我亦藉此機會祝賀語言學及現代語言系副教授王立勛博士， 憑藉他卓越的教學表現及對教育的熱誠，王博士在傑出教 學、研究及行政服務表現校長獎項2013-14，奪得了「傑出 教學表現獎」之個人獎項。 在學院發展的過程中，我見證著各位教學同工、行政同事、 同學和校友為學院努力不懈，並且被他們的熱誠及支持深深 地感動。在同仁擕手協力下，人文學院將繼續秉持教研相長 的宗旨，憑藉專業的知識和態度，致力推動人文教育，積極 培育學生，為社會作出貢獻。 人文學院院長 陳國球教授 ince the restructuring on 1 July 2012, the Faculty of Humanities (FHM) has been developing into "an Education-focused, multidisciplinary institution with research capability" in line with the strategic move of HKIEd. With this end in view, the FHM has made remarkable achievements over the past year. First of all, our Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Language Studies (BA(Lang Studies)), the first undergraduate programme complementary to Education in HKIEd, was successfully revalidated by the Hong Kong Council for Accreditation of Academic and Vocational Qualifications (HKCAAVQ) in November 2013, laying a solid foundation for the Faculty to subsequently apply for the Programme Area Accreditation (PAA) in the programme areas of Chinese Studies and English Studies. Secondly, we completed a smooth panel visit for the PAA exercise in mid-April 2014 and the Institute has received a positive interim report from HKCAAVQ which signifies a big step towards the university title bid, extending the strengthened key discipline areas outside the traditional education studies. To further develop more Humanities-related disciplines, we plan to offer a wider variety of courses for students, introduce double degree programmes and develop other undergraduate programmes in the accredited discipline areas of Chinese Studies and English Studies. I also take this opportunity to congratulate Dr. Wang Lixun, Associate Professor of the Department of Linguistics and Modern Language Studies, for winning the "Award for Outstanding Performance in Teaching" of the President's Awards for Outstanding Performance in Teaching, Research and Administrative Services 2013/14 for his achievement and dedication in teaching. In the course of development in several endeavours, I have witnessed and was impressed with the vigour, enthusiasm and support shown by everyone involved – academic/teaching staff, administrative colleagues, students and alumni. With the concerted efforts of all FHM members, our Faculty will continue to leverage on our expertise to strive for excellence in teaching, research, as well as academic development with a view to nurturing our students, contributing to the advancement of the Humanities education and the betterment of the community.
