Description:

Keynote Speaker: Prof. Carl Bereiter, OISE, The University of Toronto<br>Guest of Honour: Mr. Chris Wardlaw, the Deputy Secretary for Education and Manpower<Br><br>
Since the launch of the scheme in late September this year, students partook in the collaborative learning on the Knowledge Forum according to the curriculum plan designed by their teachers. Students are going to report their learning outcome in mid-November so as to consolidate their learning experience and to conduct peer tutoring with their fellow classmates. In order to increase the increment for participation and to promote good practice, we will present awards to individuals and groups who have outstanding performance in the forthcoming award presentation ceremony on the 6th of December.<br><br>
To our great honour, Mr. Chris Wardlaw, Deputy Secretary for Education and Manpower will present awards to the award winners. In addition, it is our great honour that Prof. Carl Bereiter, OISE, UT, the inventor of the idea knowledge building, will deliver a keynote speech, and Dr. Elizabeth Morley, principal of Institute of Child Study, OISE, UT will share with us her frontline experience in conducting knowledge building activities in school.
