Experiential Learning Week 2013-2014– Teacher’s Reflection

I took part in organizing some of the activities in the Experiential Learning Week, e.g. S.1 Macau Study Trip, S.4 Cheung Chau Field Trip etc. Although I did not join the Macau Study Trip with my S.1 students, I had a lot of fun in preparing the Trip. The students had to come up with their own research topic, draft their own proposal before the Trip. They felt excited and very curious about the Trip. It was probably the first time for many of them to travel without their parents! Most of the students were able to cooperate with each other very well. Though sometimes they faced difficulties which hindered their performance on the research, their subject teachers acted as facilitators to guide them the appropriate way to deal with the problems.

In addition, I went to Cheung Chau for a field study with S.4 students. Students went to different checkpoints, e.g. St. Paul’s Hospital, the Rock Carvings of Cheung Chau etc. to investigate whether conservation is taking place in these cultural heritages. This was a valuable opportunity for them to understand more about the history of Cheung Chau.

In conclusion, our school provides a great variety of activities to our students in the Experiential Learning Week. These serve as another way to learn outside classroom, or even in the world since we also organized study trips to Guangzhou and Taipei for S.2 and S.3 students respectively.

Experiential Learning Week 2013 – 2014 – Student’s Reflection

Last week was the Experiential Learning Week, it was a lot of fun. The school arranged many activities for us. I think the most interesting thing was going to Macau to conduct a research project. We did many things in Macau, they will forever be part of my memory.

We English teachers would like to express our appreciation to the students at LTPSS for showing your respect to the English works and working really hard and seriously on them. We have been really impressed by the originality of the students’ work. In order to show our respect for these pieces of creative and thoughtful work, the English teachers decided to put them up for display on 4/F – the English subject floor. Every English teacher is fully committed to establishing a nice and positive English learning environment here in which students’ every piece of hard work is recognised and valued.

The English subject floor has been decorated with the concept of ‘LEARNING HARVEST’. We regard the receiving of students’ successful work as reaping the harvest of quality teaching. The floor is decorated with doors painted in brown as the brunches and the corridors and pipes filled with green and strong leaves clinging to the walls and Students’ work hanging among the leaves. We would like to thank our VA teachers Mr. SKK and Mr. YYT for their kind help with the onerous purchase of materials, Ming Suk for putting up everything for us and Sai Suk for painting the doors. We would also like to say a big thank you to our lovely senior form students for helping to put up the students’ work. Thank you for your support to the department!

It’s the school’s CR soon but I think it’s just the time for the celebration of success and looking into how to bring the quality teaching and learning to another stage of development.

This is my new art work 'Heart Beating'. This is an abstract painting, I tried to paint it after I saw the work by John Beckly. I experimented different technique, such as dripping colour, scratching out the outlines and shading with cold colours. I am very much satisfied with this work and I hope you like it also.
