Outstanding Teaching Award (OTA) Individual Award
Professor Wing-sum Cheung
Department of Mathematics, Faculty of ScienceI teach from the perspective of the students. I would give timely motivation on what they are going to learn and why they are learning the materials.

Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine for A Medical Humanities Core Curriculum: Engaging Medical Students Through Experiential Learning
We believe that innovations in pedagogy i.e. curricula design and innovation, new formats of teaching, learning and assessment should not only drive our students to gain the capacity for greater awareness, self-reflection and transformation but also lead students to ‘connect the dots’ between disparate pieces of information which may appear to be unrelated and promote critical thinking to bring clarity to issues or conditions that appear uncertain or ill-defined.
