In this regard, the Knowledge Fair on “Learning to Learn” 2002 is organized to provide such a platform and opportunity for all school heads and teachers to participate directly and actively in the intellectual discourse. All the presentations in the Knowledge Fair are based on the findings and analyses of a series of Collaborative Research and Development (“Seed”) Projects conducted in schools since 2001-2002 school year as one of the curriculum reform initiatives. In the conduct of each “seed” project, schools work together with officers of the Curriculum Development Institute of the Education Department and local / overseas expert advisors from tertiary institutions. The projects are geared towards promoting the learning capabilities of students, serving as an impetus to school-based curriculum development to generate useful knowledge and experiences as well as connecting theories into actual practice. These research projects are vital not only to develop teachers as reflective practitioners and curriculum change agents in schools but also help schools and teachers to make informed decisions. Moreover, they offer a diverse range of effective means for the reference of other schools and teachers to improve pedagogical practices and student learning. THEMES OF KNOWLEDGE FAIR The main themes of the Knowledge Fair cover the following areas: curriculum planning, learning and teaching strategies in Key Learning Areas development of critical thinking and creativity through learning activities assessment for learning (to improve learning and teaching) four key tasks (moral and civic education, reading to learn, project learning and information technology for interactive learning) school-based curriculum development PRESENTATIONS The presentations will focus on deliberation of the “seed” project process such as how classroom observations, student interviews, analyses of student work and teachers’ self reflections are adopted for triangulation and generation of useful experiences or knowledge. The purpose is to help participants interpret information or data collected, construct knowledge and deepen their understanding on specific areas concerned. 2 OVERVIEW OF PARALLEL SESSIONS Area Session 1 Session 2 Session 3 Session 4 9:30 – 11:00 a.m. 11:15 – 12:45 p.m. 2:00 – 3:30 p.m. 3:45 – 5:15 p.m. Keynote KS-01 PS KS-01 PS Speech Learning to Learn : Learning to Learn : Teaching for Learning Teaching for Learning (Language Medium : (Language Medium : English) English) CF Hall (p.)
