校長的話 香港教育大學 2020-2021 年報 7 New series of the Animated Chinese History for Curious Minds Project launched in July 2021 教大於二零二一年七月推出新一輯「看動畫•學歷史」 教材 World-class research and international recognition Part of our core mission is to make a positive impact on the school sector and the wider community, through knowledge creation and transfer. Our efforts paid off during the reporting year with many of our research projects bearing fruit. Particularly encouraging was the University’s impressive performance in the Research Assessment Exercise (RAE) 2020 conducted by the University Grants Committee (UGC). Covering the research output of the eight UGC-funded universities in the past six years, the RAE 2020 was considered the most comprehensive assessment of the local research community. Many of our submissions in education, earth science, geography, Chinese language and literature, and psychology, were judged to be “World Leading” or “Internationally Excellent”. The RAE results represented an affirmation of our Educationplus approach and testimony to the world-class standing of our research since our retitling in 2016. On research funding, we continued to rank first in education in the General Research Fund and Early Career Scheme. Our publications were widely cited in academia, with 23 EdUHK scholars named among the world’s top two per cent most-cited scientists by Stanford University. In the Quacquarelli Symonds World University Rankings by Subject 2021, EdUHK was ranked 3rd in Asia and 16th in the world in education. The year also witnessed the official launch of the World Bank-funded project in Cambodia, in partnership with five leading Cambodian universities, to enhance the quality of higher education teaching in the country. This is the second World Bank project the University has undertaken following the Vietnam project, which commenced in 2017. 世界頂尖研究 國際認許 教大的核心使命之一，正是創造及轉移知識，藉以貢 獻學界及廣大社群。年內，本校多個研究範疇成果輝 煌，備受認同。在大學教育資助委員會（教資會）進行 的「2020年研究評審工作」中，本校成績斐然，尤其令 人振奮。是次評審，涵蓋八所公帑資助大學過去六年的 研究表現，可說是本地學術界研究方面最全面的綜合評 估。教大提交的研究項目，大多獲評為「世界領先」或 「國際卓越」水平，包括：教育、地球科學、地理學、 中國語言及文學、心理學等學科。評審結果肯定了本校 「教育為本，超越教育」的方向，更見證了自二零一六 年正名為大學以來，本校的卓越研究表現，已達至世界 級水平。 研究撥款方面，本校在「優配研究金」及「傑出青年學 者計劃」教育學科範疇再佔鰲頭，撥款總額位列本地大 學之首。教大更有二十三名學者榮登史丹福大學全球首 2%科學家名單，反映他們的研究成果廣為學界引用。 而在二零二一年Quacquarelli Symonds世界大學學科排 名中，教大在教育領域名列亞洲第三與全球第十六。此 外，教大再獲世界銀行（世銀）委託，於年內開展與五所 柬埔寨公立高等學府的合作計劃，以提升當地高等教育 界的教研實力，是項計劃為教大繼二零一七年開展越南 項目後，與世銀再度合作。 Professor Cheung and Vice President (Research and Development) Professor Chetwyn Chan Che-hin host an online meeting to welcome new students in August 2021 張教授聯同副校長（研究與發展）陳智軒教授於 二零二一年八月以線上形式歡迎新生
