Beyond Co-creation in Teaching and Learning: Sustaining Student-Teacher Collaboration

 

Co-creation is experiential as knowledge and skills are acquired through active participation, collaboration, and reflection on experiences. The Student-as-Partners (SaP) Symposium, "Beyond Co-creation in Teaching and Learning: Sustaining Student-Teacher Collaboration," co-organized by HKU, HKUST, HKBU, and the HERDSA HK Branch with support from the cross-institutional TDLEG project, Co-creating the Future of Education, will provide comprehensive insights into how co-creation can transform the teaching and learning process into a more interactive, engaging, and enriching experience. This symposium is an excellent opportunity for educators, students, and all interested parties to engage in meaningful dialogue about the power of student partnerships in education.
