International HE Reform Initiatives : refocusing on UG Education
Curriculum Structure: standardization & portability of credits; flexibility for student choice, career change; recognition of prior experience
International experience: global outlook
Curriculum content: broadening; early specialization questioned
Breaking down barriers: vocational vs university training; university vs community
Emphasis on generic skills and life-long learning

“The growth of the conceptual component of output has brought with it accelerating demands for workers who are equipped not simply with technical know-how, but with the ability to create, analyze, and transform information and to interact effectively with others.”
Knowledge Economy Conceptual Economy
Alan Greenspan, 1997, speech at U. of Connecticut

“The future belongs to a very different kind of person with a very different kind of mind—creators and empathizers, pattern recognizers, and meaning makers.”
Daniel Pink, 2005, A Whole New Mind: Why Right Brainers will Rule the Future (Riverhead Books); translated into 34 languages.

“…technology alone is not enough. It is technology married with liberal arts, married with humanities, that yields us the result that makes our hearts sing.” (Steve Jobs, CEO, Apple Computer and Pixar Animation)
Innovation: crossing boundaries

• It is no longer sufficient to teach skills or even meta-skills (e.g. learning how to learn).
• Skills are important but so are mind sets and dispositions. … passion, imagination, and “arc of life” learning: activities in our daily lives which keep us learning, growing and exploring.

Operationalization and Implementation
Questions from teachers
• These aims are motherhood and apple pie. How do we achieve them?
• How can they be realized in the curriculum?
• How do we teach them?
• How can we assess values and dispositions?
Response
• What do we need to do to generate university-wide discussion?
• What are the key ideas and concepts in this reform process ?
• Do we have a common language to explore them?
• How do we know whether things are working?

Induction into University Learning
• To ask questions instead of looking for right or wrong answers
• To see things from different perspectives• To see things as connected
The student who can begin early in life to think of things as connected … has begun the life of learning.” (Mark van Doren, 1943, Liberal Education, p. 115)
Mark van Doren (1894-1972) American poet, writer, critic; winner of Politzer prize for poetry (1940)

Theme 1 Science, technology and society – Key issues
i. Can science and scientific discoveries be value-free? How are scientific findings shaped by beliefs and value systems?
ii. Can science be error-free? What are the possibilities and consequences of the misuse of science?
iii. What are the benefits of technological innovations and what kind of unwelcome and unanticipated side effects could they bring?
iv. What are the moral and ethical dilemmas created by scientific discoveries and new technologies? …. How can we formulate our position and plan appropriate action as we face these dilemmas?

"I want students to think about where the food they eat comes from and the human and environmental costs of providing food. They find out very quickly that the key issue is not biotechnology, it's much more to do with economics and politics. Social science departments may teach some of this, but they tend to skate over the technological issues. But if it were taught purely as a food science course, students wouldn't learn about the bigger issues."

Investigation of issues in real-life contexts
Experiential Learning: from peripheral to central

Dialectics of Knowing and Doing
“When you know something but don’t act on it, your knowledge of it is still superficial. After you’ve personally experienced it, your knowledge of it will be much clearer and its significance will be different from what it used to be.”
Zhu Xi, 朱熹 philosopher, Song Dynasty, 1130-1200)
![Page 45: Re-imagining Undergraduate Education Amy B M Tsui Pro-Vice-Chancellor and Vice President The University of Hong Kong.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551a5a2a55034643688b48df/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• “Give the pupils something to do, not something to learn; and the doing is of such a nature as to demand thinking; learning naturally results.” John Dewey (1895-1952)
• Learning as social participation: learning is not just a cognitive process, it is fundamentally social and experiential(Jean Lave, 1988; Lave and Wenger 1991; Wenger 1998).

Characteristics of real-life working environments:• Situations are often unfamiliar• Problems are not well-defined• Contextual factors are crucial• No perfect solution – learning to live with dilemmas
Experiential Learning: Embodiment of knowledge, skills, disposition and
values
Skills and disposition cultivated:• Adaptability; thinking on one’s feet• Empathy; passion• Resourcefulness; imagination; creativity• Communication, collaboration, negotiation• Decision-making: making informed decisions driven
by core values

Reflections on Leading and Managing Curriculum Reform
Shared “Vision” • Seeing the big picture• Seeing the need for change : evidence-based
Goal-setting: What do we want to achieve?• Building “consensus” Building a common discourse
and a shared repertoire (ideas and concepts)Operationalization and implementation
• Innovation: New ideas is only part of the equation, execution is just as important.
• Participation and ownership: willingness to live with imperfection
• Resource supportSustaining change

• Incorporated into everyday practice
– as part of quality assurance and enhancement mechanisms
– as part of performance indicators, with resource implications
• Infra-structures to support and sustain change
• Monitoring and disseminating progress
• Celebrating and sharing good practices
• Strategic allocation / re-allocation of resource support
Challenge: Sustaining Change

Qualities of a Leader

• Don’t presume you have the answer.• Initiate open discussions and interrogation.• Look for “positive deviants” – they see solutions where
others don’t.• Use innovative behaviours to shape new thinking, not
the other way round.
