Annual Report 2015–16

New models of teaching and learning have been explored for the benefits of our students and teachers. New Programme Promotes Gender Studies The Gender Studies Programme introduced in 2015–16 a brand- new ‘Bachelor of Social Science Programme in Gender Studies’, Hong Kong’s first-ever undergraduate major programme in gender studies in its field. The multi-disciplinary programme offers a broad-based and in-depth understanding of local and cross-cultural issues related to gender ideology, institutions, and relationships, as well as the connection between gender, social justice, equality, and peace. E-Learning and Online Teaching The Centre for eLearning Innovation and Technology (ELITE) was set up in early 2016 to further improve teaching and learning at CUHK. ELITE provides professional facilities, technical support, and training to teachers who wish to adopt e-learning strategies. The Centre also assists teachers to apply multimedia courseware and implement Micro-Module, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and other e-learning initiatives. The Centre has in place studios and a working area (with editing workstations) for teachers to create video and multimedia contents. 大學尋找新穎教學模式，裨益師生。 新課程促進性別研究 性別研究課程於 2015 至 16 年度推出 嶄新性別研究社會科學學士課程， 為香港首個性別研究本科課程。課 程取材自不同學科，幫助學生深入了 解性別意識形態、制度、關係等本地 及跨文化議題，也探索性別、社會公 義、平等、和平之間的關連。 電子學習 中大 2016 年年初成立電子學習創新 科技中心，致力提升教學成效。該中 心提供專業設施、技術支援，以及培 訓老師應用電子科技教學，也協助 老師使用多媒體教材，推行大型公 開網上課程及電子教學。該中心擁 有攝錄室及設置剪接設備之多功能 工作室，方便教師製作錄像及多媒體 教材。 教學求新 與時並進 Enhanced Teaching and Learning: in Step With the Times 19 篤學能養志 樂育可樹人 Education—Nourishing Minds and Building Character
