The Faculty of Education has been organising interactive workshops to share knowledge on teachers' research work with targeted groups in the community since 2016. The topics of the workshops include healthy swallowing and communications, reading comprehension difficulties, interesting dictation, parent-child dictation, developmental dyslexia, etc., which were well received by the public.

The knowledge exchange workshop on “Strengths and Weaknesses of Autistic Children’s Language Communication” will be organised in late June 2021. Dr Carol To, Associate Professor of our Faculty, will discuss the difficulties of children with autism spectrum disorders encounter in busy mainstream classrooms, and share practical tips with parents and teachers on how to support these students in their studies and help them perform better in class.
