The project aims at facilitating Hong Kong teachers to learn and accumulate good practices of flipped classroom from neighbouring Asian/Chinese communities, establishing a professional sharing platform as a teacher training and resource centre to share and try out the good practices.
The proposed project aims at empowering early childhood educators (ECEs) with skills to develop a curriculum that not only cultivates resilience skills in kindergarteners, but also addresses the six learning areas, ultimately equipping these children with skills to face developmental challenges. The objectives of this project are: (a) to help ECEs understand resilience skills and the importance of play in nurturing related competences; (b) to illustrate how the resilience curriculum can be integrated into the KG curriculum; (c) to provide professional support to ECEs in designing their own curriculum; (d) to facilitate knowledge exchange for professional development through sharing sessions and online discussions; (e) to encourage the establishment of a professional community through the identification of “seed” schools to disseminate knowledge and share experiences with partner schools when program ends. It is expected that 5-10 kindergartens (approximately 100 ECEs and 1,000 K1-K13 children) will participate and benefit from the program.
The project aims to enhance the psychological health of the secondary school students through application of “art as therapy” techniques to help students to understand more about themselves, be more aware of their emotions, be more able to express their needs, develop their positive attitudes, and build up their good social relationships. Internet reference materials and a DVD will be the deliverables of the project.
The project aims at enhancing the gesture communication skills of students with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and mild intellectual disabilities (MID) through implementing a robot-based intervention programme.
