About the course

We started the Teacher Development Course in 2014, aiming to provide systematic and on-site SL training. Since then, about 100 teachers from Hong Kong, Mainland China and other Asian regions have graduated from the course. We have received numerous positive feedback from participants and the course is refined every year to better fit the expectations and needs of teachers.

 

This year, the course will consist of three phrases:

Dr Ngai and Dr Chan have been involved in SL and community engagement for over 10 years. Together, they oversaw the early implementation of a university-wide initiative into using SL as a key educational strategy for undergraduates. They pioneer innovative pedagogical practices such as multicultural student teams through partnerships with local NGOs, SL exchange programmes, and “global SL classroom” initiatives, etc. They have been invited to share SL experience in many local, national, and international academic activities and published a number of book chapters and papers on international journals about SL. Their contributions have been recognized by the Hong Kong Government in its University Grants Committee Teaching Award (2016). Under their leadership, SLLO won the 2020 International Research Award of International Association for Research on Service-Learning and Community Engagement (IARSLCE). They have been the course instructors for the Teacher Development Courses since 2014.
