The University of Hong Kong (HKU) welcomes the move by the UGC and the QAC to provide additional funding for universities’ virtual teaching and learning (VTL) initiatives. Professor Ian Holliday, Vice-President (Teaching and Learning) said: “In the past 15 months, HKU has engaged deeply with VTL as first the social unrest and then the pandemic moved much teaching and learning online. Additional funding from UGC will enable us to intensify our efforts to build on the many innovative practices developed by teachers and students throughout the campus. It will help us ensure that VTL is fully integrated into our strategic plans for T&L as we navigate the ‘new normal’ in the 2020s.”
