HKAECT International Conference 2022 “Innovation and Transformation: The Post-pandemic Landscape of Education and Beyond”
On 16-18 June 2022
Live Online & at Ingenium, Main Library, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong
There are two stories to be told about the post-pandemic educational landscape. On the one hand, some teachers and parents believe that the resumption of face-to-face classes is long overdue. In these circumstances, schools and universities mandate COVID-19 vaccinations on the assumption that face-to-face teaching and learning on campus should take place as soon as possible. On the other hand, statistical data have shown that since the inception of the pandemic lockdown, there has been an exponential growth of the use and investment of education technology worldwide. The online learning global market is forecasted to rocket by 18 fold from HK$145.5 billion to HK$2,730 billion. The learning habits of billions of affected learners across 186 countries have been forever changed. This is by no means just a temporary disruption, but a phenomenal digital transformation that is likely to stay indefinitely.

In the abstracts, you should clearly state research objectives, research questions, hypotheses (if any), research methods, findings, and implications/contributions.

Subject to authors’ successful registrations to the Conference, accepted abstracts will be included in a conference program booklet and you will be invited to make presentations at the Conference. The maximum number of an author’s submissions is two, irrespective of whether he or she is the first author of each manuscript or not.
