Teaching construction of the University of Hong Kong;
HKU mainly teaches in small classes, with a small number of students and detailed classroom contents, and attaches great importance to teacher-student interaction. Thanks to the size of the class, teachers always ask questions to students in class, and they encourage students to ask questions very much. At the same time, teamwork has become an important part of daily study. In the courses of the University of Hong Kong, a large proportion of students need teamwork, which is very effective for improving communication and cooperation ability.
HKU has no compulsory measures to require students to attend classes. The best way to ensure students to attend classes is to improve the quality of their own courses and naturally attract students to attend classes. HKU adopts a step-by-step teaching mode to downplay the importance of the final exam. In order to evaluate a student's level more reasonably, teachers usually leave some targeted homework to examine the progress of students following the course. This step-by-step teaching method can not only ensure the normal learning quality of students, but also give them enough free time.
HKU attaches great importance to teaching evaluation in school buildings, which is one of the reasons why the teaching quality of HKU teachers is generally high. For a course, we should not only evaluate the chief teacher, but also evaluate the teaching assistants. The management department of the school is divided into two parts: one is the professors and teachers in charge of academics, and the other is the management department in charge of serving students. The two parts run in parallel, each doing its own job and not interfering with each other; This model guarantees teachers' teaching and academic freedom to a certain extent.
