Background

Paul Lam joined the Centre for Learning Enhancement And Research at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) in January 2003. He has extensive interest and experience in teaching and learning principles, case-based teaching and learning, web-assisted teaching and learning, and evaluation of elearning and mlearning. He also has experience in designing educational tools. uReply (http://web.ureply.mobi) is a classroom student response system developed under his supervision.

Formerly he was the Language Programme Design and Materials Development Officer in the Neuro-Cognitive Science for Language Education Project, CUHK, where he wrote the English teaching materials for several English enhancement courses with a focus on a cognitive approach. He was the Senior Research Assistant in the Centre for the Enhancement of Learning and Teaching at the City University of Hong Kong from 2000 to 2002. Before working in the universities, he was a secondary school teacher for nine years (from 1988-97) in a number of schools, the last being Tang King Po School in To Kwa Wan, Kowloon.

Research

Paul Lam’s research interests range widely across several key aspects of teaching and learning: web-supported teaching and learning, cased based teaching and learning, and English language teaching.

  • Web-supported teaching and learning
    He has assisted in the evaluation of close to 100 web-supported teaching projects in many discipline areas in three Hong Kong universities. He has also been involved in a CERG in this area.
  • Case-based teaching and learning
    He has assisted the implementation and evaluation of case-based teaching in science courses at universities and at secondary school levels.
  • Gifted education and learning styles
    There is an ongoing study on the perceptions of gifted education by various stakeholders in Hong Kong, and a study of the learning styles of these better students. The study uses data collected from the project ‘A Science Enrichment Programme for Secondary 3–4 Students’.
  • Self and peer assessment in Science
    He is interested in issues related to the learning enhancements induced through students self-assessing themselves and peer-assessing each other. The data come from a project in the Science Faculty: ‘Engaging Science students in the design and enactment of assessment’.
  • eBooks
    ‘Promoting the use of eBooks through better understanding students’ needs and preferences’ is an ongoing project to study the usability and acceptability of eBooks as teaching and learning tools for teachers and students. The project involves investigation of user performance and users’ preferences in test-trial sessions ranging from short to extended periods of time.
  • eLearning evaluation
    He is interested in evaluation strategies of eLearning activities on various levels (individual teachers, programmes, and university). The experience and data come from various eLearning projects and services at CLEAR.
  • English language teaching (ELT)
    He has applied cognitive linguistic insights to ELT. This work includes bringing to learners’ awareness of the differences in conceptualization held by speakers of another language. He has written experimental course content, developed teaching materials, and trained teachers to teach using this cognitive approach.
