The Dilemma of Matching Learning Styles and Teaching styles in English Language Classrooms<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Dr Holly Chung explored the\u00a0provision of English courses in a self-financed degree-granting tertiary educational institution within the context of \u201cmassification.\u201d She sought to examine the underlying principles of the curriculum design and change in the development of the English courses in private higher-education institutions in Hong Kong. Dr Rebecca Ong investigated the retention of high-caliber academic staff in tertiary institutions all over the world. Her focus was to identify factors that affect faculty\u2019s intention to quit and investigate the potential factors and strategies used to motivate and thus successfully retain high quality faculty members. Dr Heidi Wong presented the difficulties of understanding the learning style preferences of students and how it correlates with the teaching style of educators. She discussed how many researchers believe that learning styles and teaching styles should be matched in order to enhance students\u2019 learning motivation, while some scholars advocate other methods. Thanks to all the lecturers for their presentations!<\/p>\n
