Project Objectives

In view of the positive feedback collected regarding the Individual Interview Skills in English (ISDS), an online learning tool first launched by the Independent Learning Centre (ILC) in 2013 to help improve students’ interview skills in English, together with students’ needs for interview practice which also involve Cantonese and Putonghua (commonly used during interviews in Hong Kong), the ILC proposes to work collaboratively with the Office of Student Affairs (OSA) to develop an extended and upgraded trilingual online platform to help CUHK students, not only in developing their interview skills in English, Cantonese and Putonghua, but also in promoting reflection and independent learning via a range of interactive multimedia exercises and resources provided by OSA, other units across the university, as well as quality external resources.
