Overview:

The e-learning Pedagogical Support Unit is offering a series of 3 workshops which focus on practical ways to successfully incorporate technologies into teaching and learning. Based on the University’s e-learning Strategy, the workshops will cover the following areas:

  1. Technology-assisted teaching and learning: Using a range of Moodle features to add and display content in a functional and meaningful way, including the use of visuals and different types of media.
  2. Technology-enhanced teaching and learning: Defining different forms of learning and rethinking the classroom space.
  3. Technology-enriched teaching and learning: Presentations from colleagues at HKU who have made innovative use of Moodle.

The first two workshops are scheduled to run for 2 hours and will include presentation, discussion and hands-on time to put the theory into practice. The third workshop will showcase good practice from colleagues at HKU. Although the workshops are designed as a series, it is not necessary to attend all three workshops. Please bring a laptop to participate in the hands-on component.
