Professor Jiao Jianli, Director of Future Education Research Centre at South China Normal University and Apple Distinguished Educator, conducted a forum entitled "Using ICT to Enhance Chinese Language (CL) Teaching and Learning" on 3 October 2019 on the invitation of Singapore Centre for Chinese Language (SCCL). Professor Jiao analysed the opportunities and challenges faced by CL teachers and guided the participants to brainstorm novel ideas of teaching. He shared best practices on how to infuse technology into language teaching and learning through the "Demonstration-Practice-Integrate-Sharing" mode. Participants gained practical ideas from the hands-on experience, which enabled them to integrate ICT tools to enhance their students' participation in the CL classroom.
An educator of Apple Inc. also presented the highlights of the two workshops conducted by Professor Jiao on 1-2 October 2019 at SCCL. Among other topics, she shared on augmented reality, screen recording, speech recognition, screen reading, video and audio recording tools, which greatly benefited all the participants.
Among the participants were representatives from Ministry of Education (MOE) Headquarters, MOE Curriculum Planning & Development Division, CL Heads of Department, Subject Heads, Lead Teachers, Senior Teachers, CL Master Teachers, SCCL lecturers and researchers.
