The teaching of large classes might be challenging. In view of this, the latest round of CityU’s Teaching Development Grants (TDG) with the specific theme “Enhancement of Learning Experience in the Teaching of Large Classes” supports projects adopting innovative approaches in tackling such a challenge.
The TDG application result in Semester B 2015/16 has been announced and six projects in CLASS are funded by TDG. The projects are expected to improve the learning environment for students in large classes and to promote a professional development of staff in teaching large classes.
