OBJECTIVES
What we hoped to achieve by inviting Professor Laurillard to visit is to:
  • Provide staff at all levels of the University with the opportunity to benefit from the considerable knowledge and experience Professor Laurillard has regarding technology enhanced learning in higher education settings;
  • Assist us to identify strengths and areas for improvement in our current practices as they relate to the use of technology to enhance teaching and learning;
  • Seek feedback on eLearning projects and activities undertaken at PolyU from someone with an internationally recognized expertise in this area;
  • Share our experiences and affirm our aspirations regarding the use of eLearning as a strategic tool in the provision of quality education at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.
Professor Laurillard has extensive experience supporting academic staff to teach effectively using technology and in providing guidance to senior management on policies and processes to support the use of technology in higher education setting. We very much appreciated the opportunity to work with Professor Laurillard and believe that we will be able to use what we learn from her visit to build on the successes we have already made.
