Foreword

<Only Chinese version is available>


各位老師、同學:


虎年將至,先祝大家身心康泰,虎年進步!上半年平穩的疫情下,同學都能夠正常上課,怎料年關將至,疫情重臨,一下子又恢復到年前的景象。街上人流稀疏,高防護口罩上露出憂慮的眼神 ,電視上不斷呈現的是檢測站中的人龍。也許,禍福相依,跌宕起伏,就是這世界的新常態。

學校更已進入新常態2.0。大中小學停課一聲令下,學校不消一刻便由面授轉成網授。老師更是氣定神閑,Web Cam早架在屏幕上,什麼 Zoom, Google classroom, MS Teams.. 都已駕輕就熟。同學嗎,該是悲喜交集,少見些朋友,卻多了點自由,其實身邊也有不少學生說頗喜歡網課。不過,偌大的校園沒有人跑步、打球、Dem Beat,沒有了青春綻放的笑聲,顯得有點寂寞。

疫情令我們反思傳統教學的意義,難道老師不教,學生就不能自學嗎? 難道沒有考試的壓力,學生就沒有學習的動機嗎? 從教育效能看,中小學網授可能不如面授,特別對欠自律和動機的同學,但這恰好反映了香港教育的不足,也許這是個契機讓我們開拓另一片天空 !
