Championing Students as Partners @ HKU – Peter Lau and Ronnel King

Students as Partners (SaP) is drawing increasing attention across the globe. SaP helps engage students in curriculum design, pedagogical conceptualisation, decision-making, implementation, investigation, and analysis. It is also provides an excellent opportunity for Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, curriculum development, and faculty professional development.

Last November 2021, we we invited global practitioners and researchers to talk about their best practices and projects in different universities in Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Aside from these external speakers, we also interviewed two of our HKU colleagues who are engaging in SaP, Ms. Tanya Kempston from the Faculty of Education and Dr. Julie Chen from the LKS Faculty of Medicine.

We then interviewed them about their experiences in relation to SAP. Let’s hear from their stories below and learn more about how we can make students our partners:
