Award Citation
The team, led by Professor Leung Mei-yee, with Dr Julie Chiu and Dr Wong Wing-hung as team members, works on the design and implementation of the University's General Education Foundation Programme, a "common-core" programme introduced in 2012. The programme has received positive responses from students. The team has developed innovative learning aids and enrichment activities for students, ranging from specially-designed mobile apps, Peer Assisted Study Sessions, reading and writing workshops to documentary appreciation and movie nights. The award grant will enable the team to organise a sector-wide General Education Institute aiming to nurture potential future leaders for general education programmes.
