In response to the increasing number of UM faculty members who are experimenting with different modes of e-learning, this Half-Day Workshop features experts who will share with us a range of student-centred and teacher-centred pedagogical designs. This half-day event will begin with a plenary led by Prof. Ting-Chuen PONG, an award-winning faculty in teaching excellence and teaching innovations at HKUST, then followed by UM Faculty Panel Presentations and a hands-on technology workshop. This half-day event is open to all UM members particularly to the seasoned and new faculty at UM, as well as other members of the Higher Education community in the region. >>REGISTER NOW
