The Liberal Studies Project Competition was organized by the Liberal Studies Service and Learning Network (LSSLN) for new senior secondary students in Hong Kong. 75 teams of secondary school students enrolled in the competition. The prize presentation ceremony began with an opening speech given by our guest of honour, Mr Yiu Ming Tak, Principal Curriculum Development Officer (Liberal Studies/ Cross-subjects Learning), EDB. Mr Ken Chiu, Chairman of the LSSLN, then summarized the many activities (including workshops and tutorial sessions) organized for students. He remarked that the whole event was “meaningful and thought-provoking” for students from both secondary schools and Bachelor of Education (Liberal Studies) programme.
