Student Ambassador Sharing for the One City One Book Hong Kong: The Arrival in Secondary School Classrooms

Sharing by Yan Tsoi Lam, Student Ambassador for One City One Book Programme and Year 4 Student of Bachelor of Education (Honours) (English Language) - I am delighted to be working as a Student Ambassador for Hong Kong’s first ever One City One Book Programme (1C1B)  organised by the Centre for Popular Culture in the Humanities (CPCH). 1C1B is a community reading initiative that aims to get as many people as possible in the city to be reading the same book during a period of time. The chosen book for 2019 is Shaun Tan’s delightful wordless graphic novel, The Arrival. As part of our Student Ambassador duties, we have been doing reading workshops and storytelling sessions in many schools, in order to share The Arrival with primary and secondary school students.

Updates from Centre for Language in Education

The Centre for Language in Education (CLE) plays an integral part of the students’ language learning in the University by offering the regular Chinese, English and Putonghua enhancement programmes and supplementing the formal curriculum with non-formal language learning activities including various workshops for preparing students for the public language tests. To address the diverse language learning needs of different groups of students in 2018/19, CLE works closely with different units of the University, eg the Department of Cultural and Creative Arts (on the music busking activities to connect people through music and languages), the Department of Early Childhood Education (on the support for non-Chinese-speaking students), the Faculty of Education and Human Development (on the pilot scheme of International English Language Test System [IELTS] and Putonghua Shuiping Ceshi for higher diploma students), etc.

Updates from Department of English Language Education

In the age of change and transformation, the Department of English Language Education (ELE) has been continuously building up its strength in teaching, research and community engagement and setting up a bridge between the past, present and future. ELE members have acquired research and teaching expertise in various areas, including language teacher education, e-learning, second language acquisition, language policy and sociolinguistics. ELE aspires to nurture graduates with a global outlook and multicultural awareness. The Department’s research outputs have appeared in the most respected international academic journals, such as Applied Linguistics and TESOL Quarterly. ELE’s multi-disciplinary research on language teaching and learning, as well as language practices and ideologies in schools and other social contexts set a solid foundation for classroom teaching in the Faculty’s undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.
