Abstract

For this volume we invited several colleagues from 3 institutions –University of Hong Kong (HKU), National Institute of Education (NIE) (Singapore), and National University of Singapore (NUS) – to reflect on the issue of experiential/ service learning as they understand and practise it in their respective disciplinary domains. This volume is divided into four sections; in the opening section we start with two different perspectives offered by Amy Tsui, Pro-Vice-Chancellor and Vice-President of Teaching and Learning at the HKU and Alex Ip, Professor in Biological Sciences, NUS. We begin with Amy Tsui, who was one of the four invited speakers at the Universitas 21 Educational Innovation Conference held at the NUS in November 2012. At the conference, she spoke about experiential learning in the context of nurturing global citizens, and for this volume we invited her to share her views on the matter with JNUSTA readers.
