The British Council is organising the “What's next for inclusive education?” - A forum on Learner Diversity and Creative Teaching: Gathering Perspectives on Tuesday 12 December 2017.
The British Council has run the World Voice project for the last two years in 17 primary schools in Hong Kong thanks to the generosity of The Swire Group Charitable Trust. The project trains teachers to use creative teaching approaches such as singing and rhythm as a teaching pedagogy in their English lessons to address the diverse classroom.
The aims of the forum is to provide educators with a platform to share perspectives and experience on learner diversity in Hong Kong and internationally; teachers with practical, creative teaching ideas to use in their classrooms to promote learner diversity; and to connect academics and policy makers with those who are working at the front lines (e.g. teachers, educational specialists) and those experiencing the effects of government policy (e.g. parents, NGOs) to gain new or update perspectives.
Details of the forum:
Date: Tuesday 12 December 2017
Time: 10.00 – 16.00
Venue: 3/F & 4/F, British Council, 3 Supreme Court Road, Admiralty, Hong Kong
