The Conference will place special emphasis on the needs and interests of classroom practitioners, with a strand where teachers in Hong Kong kindergartens and primary/secondary schools can address practical classroom issues by means of presentations, practicals or workshop sessions, and share their experiences with colleagues and researchers. This strand will run parallel to the rest of the programme for one and a half days, starting from the afternoon of Day 2. Teachers who join the Conference from this point need to pay only HK$300 rather than the full fee.
