An Experiment in Arts and Creativity Education in Hong Kong: The Case of HKICC Lee Shau Kee School of Creativity

The creation of the HKICC Lee Shau Kee School of Creativity in 2006 itself is an experiment of creativity. It is within a strong tradition that stresses conformity instead of creativity, which is reinforced in a factory-like education structure. Given that, the founders of the school believe that school education can be different. This exciting case study reports how the school experiments its arts programme at the senior secondary level of schooling, and the possible meaning it may bring to the individual kidults and the system as a whole.

發生於香港的一項藝術與創意教育的實驗：香港兆基創意書院個案

2006年誕生的香港兆基創意書院本身就是一項充滿創意的實驗。其背景是重視服從多於創意的悠長文化傳統，以及不斷強化這個傳統的工廠式教育制度。儘管如此，該校的創辦人深信真正的學校是可以不一樣的。這個令人興奮的個案研究將會說明，該校如何在充滿考試競爭的高中階段進行藝術教育課程的實驗，以及其對當中的青年學生以及整體教育制度所可能帶來的含意。
