The Second Professional Development Symposium: Futures of Learning and Teaching

Organised by the School of General Education and Languages of the Technological and Higher Education Institute of Hong Kong in June 2022, the Second Professional Development Symposium: Futures of Learning and Teaching brought together teachers, students and industry representatives interested in sharing their visions of possible, preferred and hopeful futures of education. The symposium featured fourteen talks by teaching professionals and students from across various institutions in Hong Kong as well as abroad. They showcased some of their most recent initiatives and discussed their implications for what educational futures may or should look like. In addition to this lineup of speakers, we had a panel of industry representatives who shared their views and engaged with the audience in discussing audience-generated questions.
