Self Introduction
Hi, I am Simy Leung. I am the chairman of the Creative Teachers Association. Having been a curriculum developer in a primary school, then an educational developer in a non-profit organization and then a guest lecturer at the Hong Kong Institute of Education before, I am realizing my dream to design and promote the interdisciplinary curricula and teachers’ development.
It is a miracle to finish my research on the alignment of summative assessment and the interdisciplinary curriculum aims of Liberal Studies. Overcoming difficulties and finding out evidences to prove the truth made me surprised, enjoyable and worried.
Here I express my heartfelt thanks to the University of Bristol and the City University of Hong Kong. With people here support and the quality knowledge management in both of the libraries, I have explored my research questions effectively. The library of CityU has come my research comfort zone and the university is my second home.
