導 師 簡 介

名譽教育顧問廖秀卿博士 (Dr. Sylvia Liu) 於香港大學取得教育博士,專注研究資優教育和才華發展。廖博士自2004年研究互動團隊遊戲如何發展社交能力和個別才華。她成功策劃[小棟樑計劃]以互動遊戲培訓學童,該計劃於2006年獲香港教育局優質教育基金資助,其後一直在小學推行。她的研究證實,互動團隊遊戲對資優學童和其他學童在社交溝通自律等能力都有正面而可持續的成效。其中一項研究貢獻是「社交閃星星」的學習概念模型,如何有系統地運用團隊遊戲去提升社交等能力。廖秀卿博士及其團隊會負責設計和實行社交遊戲和培訓。

Laboratory and Programme for Creativity and Talent Development (CATD)

About the Lab

In July 2014, the Programme for Creativity and Talent Development was established within the Centre for Advancement in Inclusive and Special Education under the Faculty of Education at The University of Hong Kong. The aim was to advance research and services for gifted and talented individuals, as well as their parents and teachers. The Centre has since launched various workshops for these learners, their teachers, and parents. In collaboration with the Hong Kong Academy for Gifted Education, research on gifted individuals in Hong Kong has been ongoing since July 2019. As of June 2022, the Programme has formally been renamed the Laboratory and Programme for Creativity and Talent Development.
