Date: Wed 24 Sep  Time: 15:10-16:20 Venue: Rm 3301 (HKUST Academic Building) and on Zoom

Speakers: Dr. Julia Chen (PolyU), Dr. Aditi Jhaveri (HKUST) and Ms. Eunice Tang (HKUST)

Join us for a professional development session launching a new UGC-funded website for teaching multimodal communication. This session will highlight the significant development work completed over the past year by our expanded project team. 

Working alongside Dr. Julia Chen and Dr. Grace Lim (Hong Kong Polytechnic University) and Ms. Christy Chan (City University of Hong Kong), the team from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), including Dr. Aditi Jhaveri and Ms. Eunice Tang, has driven the project's development over the past year. Building on the foundational work of former team members like Dr. Elza Tsang, they have designed and built a comprehensive suite of practical resources. 

You will be among the first to explore our new modules, which feature complete lessons on essential digital genres for English Across the Curriculum, including academic blogs, explainer videos, infographics, digital stories, podcasts, video abstracts and CVs (among others). This hands-on session will allow you to experience these resources firsthand and discuss strategies for integrating them into your own teaching context.
