Abstract

The project is designed to achieve four purposes, (1) to disseminate excellent teaching practice, (2) to promote a culture of teaching excellence within CUHK, (3) to enhance input for the Professional Development Course (PDC) for new teachers; and (4) to acknowledge the commitment and dedication of exemplary teachers. A series of 8 to 10 video-based teaching cases which document the teaching philosophy and practice of outstanding CUHK teachers receiving the University Education Award / the UGC Teaching Award will be developed and housed in a web platform. Each teaching case will consist of multi-modal materials including video-clips of teaching in a real instructional setting, interviews, student voice, teaching materials, statements of teaching philosophy, etc. These teaching cases will be disseminated to all teachers and also used as input materials for the PDC. New cases can be developed by the Centre for Learning Enhancement And Research (CLEAR) in future to sustain the impact of the project.
