Teaching Innovation Awards 2001
Today's fast moving world demands that teachers and students are open-minded in their approaches to higher education and that graduates enter professional life with a wide range of critical thinking skills and technological knowledge and are able to demonstrate a self-reliant approach to acquiring new knowledge and skills.
In order to recognize and encourage faculty and instructors who have made a sustained effort to improve the quality of their students' learning by the introduction of innovative practices or technologies, the University has instituted the biennial Teaching Innovation Awards.
As you read through the citations for each of the Award nominees, you will see elements of both sets of principles being displayed. These innovations fall into two broads categories:
- those that are a single innovation embodying a number of areas of best practice in higher education, and
- those that involve a cluster of innovative best practices whose combination produces a synergy in terms of gains in student learning.
All nominees are recognized by HKUST as educational innovators through their effort in implementing these best practices and through the acknowledgment of this effort by the students and colleagues who nominated them.
