2021年1月23日,以「不」对称 [(A)symmetry]为主题,由五位来自香港的讲者透过「Zoom」举办的TEDxEdUHK 2021圆满结束,活动非常成功。
香港教育大学学术及首席副校长李子建教授作为活动揭幕的讲者,分享了他在「教学上的『不』对称关系」的经验,当中探讨如何透过增进师生关系来提升学习成果。香港教育大学旧生黎幸蓉女士接着分享了她扩展个人潜能的经历,包括她如何作出不同的人生抉择和培养「强大的习惯」以达至理想的生活。人称「挚友」的简迈豪先生则谈及他对「重新定义香港人」的主张及宣传工作,并分享他作为香港的混血少数族裔所遇到的困难。随后,吕舜贻女士阐述了「体育如何划分香港」,提及种种影响女性参与体育活动的因素及顾虑,亦强调了体育如何在社会上充当着平衡的角色。最后,笑匠维韦克·马布巴尼先生以「笑匠眼中的世界」为题,透视笑匠跟其他人观察事物的分别,为活动划上完美句号。
受疫情影响,是次活动的演讲均为预先录制,再透过「Zoom」播放,但无损观众的参与度。观众不但能对演讲内容作出反思及展开讨论,也能透过「Kahoot」参与互动游戏,藉此对演讲内容有更深入的了解。
香港教育大学旧生翁舜尧女士已将五位讲者的演讲内容以生动的图画呈现出来,并已上载到语文教育中心的网页供浏览。
筹备委员会谨此向五位讲者、观众、全体工作人员及学生助理表达最诚挚的谢意。是次活动的成功全赖各方的支持、投入和合作。
