The idea of NSS (334) is good. However, the feedback from frontline teachers are really mixed. Some of them complained not enough support, and some of them are overloaded with administrative works to report quantitative results back to EDB. Sometimes I really doubt there are just too many objectives and requirements in the NSS curriculum that HK teachers have a hard time to be trained to meet these over optimistic and broad objectives.
In addition, the Liberal Studies (LS) curriculum and the way that EDB/HKEA assess it will just overload the teachers. Most of the senior secondary school teachers I know they don't have enough personal experience/knowledge in the areas covered in LS (Morden China, Public Health, Energy Technology and the Environment, Hong Kong Today, Personal Development and Interpersonal Relationships). For example, if a student pick a topic on carbon capture and global warming for his Independent Enquiry Study (IES) project, I have real doubt that how many teachers in HK have experience and knowledge to coach this student in a way that his final product won't be too superficial.
Now, under NSS curriculum, science students can select less science subjects than before, plus the syllabus of the science subjects and the structure of the assessment are more or less emphasis on facts rather than reasoning (My high school chemistry teacher told me he had a F.6 student got 4As in school cert including chemistry, but he told this student not to take chemistry in A-level as he will fail after my teacher assessed his knowledge & skills. That teacher told me a student with good memory to memorize all the model answers can get A in school cert chemistry). Possibly after a few years, the general science knowledge of our kids will go much lower. |
