TALES 9 – CHTL x GEO workshop series – Enhancing Students' Sustainability Competences through General Education with Authentic Assessments

 

The workshop coorganised by CHTL & GEO spotlights the category of Sustainable Communities (GTSU) under Level 2 Interdisciplinary Thematic Courses in the new GE curriculum.

 

Two GE course instructors, Dr Yao-Tai LI and Ms Lai-Yin Anna QIN, will share the design and delivery of the authentic assessment tasks in their GE courses. Dr Li from the Department of Sociology, will introduce how he assesses students’ learning progress via short documentaries and learning journals and, more importantly, how these tasks facilitate students’ understanding of social sustainability in contemporary China. Ms Qin from the Academy of Visual Arts, will elaborate on the assignment of project pitching, which aims at nurturing students’ design thinking and problem-solving skills to address sustainability challenges.
