| Background: |
At CUHK, teachers face many types of students as all students are unique in their own way. To achieve the best possible way of teaching, teachers have adopted different methods of teaching. Although sometimes teaching is difficult, it is rewarding and allows growth in individuals. This workshop is a continuation of the last Universal Design for Learning Workshop, and it aims to promote Academic Exchange and sharing of Teaching Materials to enhance optimization in teaching. Teaching optimization will help improve efficiency and effectiveness of teaching to enhance student’s learning and to achieve better learning outcomes. There will also be practical hands-on tips for teaching as well as case discussion sharing.
