Dear Educators and Parents
The Hong Kong Academy for Gifted Education (HKAGE) is pleased to bring together Hong Kong’s education leaders and parents in the Annual Hotung Lecture 2013 by Dr. David Yun Dai and Professor Yan Kong, two distinguished experts on gifted education.
The HKAGE recognises the significant role that education leaders and parents play in meeting the learning and emotional needs of our bright students. One of our missions is to engage with education leaders and parents so as to support them in their efforts to nurture high-ability students.
We are delighted to invite Dr. David Yun Dai and Professor
Yan Kong to share their views on gifted education with our
education leaders and parents. Dr. David Yun Dai is an Associate
Professor in the Faculty of Educational Psychology and Methodology
at the University at Albany-State University of New York in
the USA. Professor Yan Kong is Professor and Chair of the Department
of General Education of Humanities, School of Humanities and
Social Science at the University of Science and Technology
of China (USTC). She is also the Founder and Chairperson of
the Psychological-Education Centre in USTC.
In this annual lecture “Gifted Education: East Meets West in the Oriental Pearl”, the two speakers will have an interactive dialogue across a number of key GE issues, providing a valuable opportunity to examine the similarities and differences between Chinese and western perspectives on giftedness and to explore how we might best develop GE in Hong Kong to develop the full potential of our young generation.
We look forward to your support and participation.
Thank you.
