Award Citation
The team, led by Professor Gary Feng, with Professor Cheng Shuk-han, Dr Ron Kwok, Dr Linda Lai and Dr Eva Lui as team members, has pioneered and championed the implementation of the Discovery-enriched Curriculum (DEC) at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) through strategic planning, innovative and supportive initiatives, frontline work with students and careful monitoring. The team has displayed a bold commitment to this new approach, and worked tirelessly to empower both colleagues and students alike. The team will use the award grant to further enhance the understanding of the DEC among CityU staff and students, and also to share the challenges, experiences and successes with other tertiary institutions through organising a symposium and a conference plus publishing a book.
