Professor CK Woo attended the reception for Awardees of the International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva 2021 Special Edition
On 17 May 2021, Hong Kong’s Chief Executive hosted a reception at the Hong Kong Science Park to honour awardees of the International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva 2021 Special Edition, which according to the Swiss Consul of Hong Kong had attracted over 600 entries. Professor Woo Chi-Keung attended the reception as one of the two gold medal winners from the EdUHK for his Online Assessment System for Individual Scores (OASIS) that implements a transparent mechanism for scoring individual contributions to a team project’s completion. Using team members’ peer assessment data to compute performance-based scores, OASIS discourages free riding before project commencement and punishes free riders upon project completion. Adopted by 28 teachers across 9 universities in the U.S and Asia, OASIS has improved team-based learning of ~1,800 students enrolled in 23 diverse courses.
