Most academics polarise the important practice of teaching and research into separate and distinct worlds – often rarely integrating them as complementarities in our pursuits towards better scholarship. This roundtable discussion brings together a distinguished lineup of three scholar/educators whom have successfully bridged this apparent divide. One thing they have in common is a passion for new ideas and for challenging our current taken-for-granted-assumptions in our scholarship of teaching, learning and research. This engaging and interactive session will showcase their experiences in “translating” their research into teachable moments and their teachable moments into research.

These monthly roundtable discussions aim to create a more of a COMMUNITY of like-minded colleagues from our entire university to come together on a regular basis and discuss important themes that have the power to stimulate new ways of thinking and new ways of doing our practice of educating life-long learners.

This event is organised by Community of Practice (CoP) on Developing, Recognising and Rewarding Excellent Teaching, in cooperation with Pao Yue-kong Library, Educational Development Centre and Student Affairs Office.
