Special Grant for Strategic Development of Virtual Teaching and Learning

Project Supervisor (2021-2023). Developing a Faculty-wide Video-based Pedagogy and Assessment Framework to Enhance Reflective Video-Engagement: Integration with the University-wide Learning Management System for Virtual Teaching and Learning ($997,128 HKD). This project is to design a series of video modules for blended learning, a common video-based pedagogical framework with lesson templates, and strategies for assessing students’ video-based reflections across six teacher education undergraduate programmes as well as one postgraduate diploma programmes in the Faculty of Education. 

Supporting Hong Kong ethnic minority learners’ multimodal mathematics learning through responsive teaching in technology-enhanced environments

Principal Investigator (begin in 2022). This study’s dual aims are: (1) to develop Hong Kong teachers’ expertise in supporting ethnic minority students’ mathematical learning in multimodal, technological learning environments, (2) to uncover ethnic minority students’ competences in mathematical activities in dynamic geometry environments through examining their multimodal discourse (e.g. words, gestures, and touchscreen dragging). Funded …

BMED 3091 — Contemporary Issues in Mathematics Education

Undergraduate course. This course surveys selectedcurrent topics and trends affecting mathematics education. Thiscourse aims to expand students’ horizon in frontier research andcontemporary issues in mathematics education. The goal of examining these contemporary topics is to empower students to become potential agents and leaders of curricular change in their future practice.

MAED 6163 – Researching Action in Mathematics Teaching

Graduate course. Offers an introduction to the theoretical aspects of mathematics teaching and learning in face of the challenge from the ever-changing mathematics curriculum. It will provide an overview of both cognitive and socio-psychological issues involved in both the teaching and the learning of mathematics. (Fall 2016-Present)

Bank Deposit Computer

Problem-based Digital Making Tasks Make a device that would display a student’s piggy bank balance after each deposit. Compare two offers:   The first offer is that the teacher gives her $3 today and $222 everyday thereafter.  The second offer is to give her $3 today; then each subsequent weekend (Saturday and Sunday), he gives her double the …

Prime and Composite Number Detector

Problem-based Digital Making Tasks Is 7081 a prime or composite number?  Make a prime or composite detector.   How CT may Support Mathematics Learning The use of conditionals and Boolean operators will come into play when checking whether a number is prime or composite. In particular, students will need to loop a function to check the divisibility of a …

Fibonacci Sequence Machine

Problem-based Digital Making Tasks To generate terms of Fibonacci Sequence and observe its parity.  How CT may Support Mathematics Learning Recursive repetition will support the generation of terms in the Fibonacci Sequence. Problem solving will be encountered with the first two entries of the Fibonacci Sequence being 1 and 1. Naming of two variables will …
