Invited speakers for Language Education Conference 2024 at HKUST Theory-informed Pedagogy: Dissolving the Theory-Practice Dualism in Language Education
13/04/2024

Dr Lap Tuen, Michael Wong (Head of CAPLE) and Mr Pedro Lok (English Lecturer) were invited to speak at the Language Education Conference 2024 Theory-informed Pedagogy: Dissolving the Theory-Practice Dualism in Language Education organised by the Center for Language Education of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology on 13th April 2024.

 

Title of the Invited Talk: Using Learning Analytics to Enhance English Language Learning for Mainland Chinese Tertiary Students in Hong Kong

 

Synopsis

This presentation aims to explore the implementation of learning analytics to enhance online English language learning for Mainland Chinese tertiary students in two self-financing institutions in Hong Kong. With the rapid growth of Mainland Chinese students pursuing tertiary education in Hong Kong, it is essential to address the diverse English language abilities and needs of these students. In addition, there is an increasing trend for adopting technology in English language education. However, limited research has been conducted on Mainland Chinese students studying English for academic purposes in an online environment in Hong Kong, and existing research relies mainly on self-reported questionnaires, interviews, and classroom observations for data collection. The speakers will highlight the possible framework and potential challenges of implementing learning analytics in EAP learning in online contexts. It is believed that implementing learning analytics can facilitate a more personalised and effective English language learning experience for Mainland Chinese tertiary students in Hong Kong.
