Relevant learning and teaching materials and videos of teachers guiding and motivating students to develop their critical thinking skills through various teaching strategies were included in the online learning package:

In order to facilitate effective and innovative learning and teaching practices with the integration of ICT, LTTC has continually cooperated with academic departments in providing professional development activities. To achieve the CILOs with linkage to PILOs and GILOs, the classes with integration of e-Learning pedagogies were opened up as exemplars to encourage academic and teaching staff to apply effective e-Learning pedagogy practices in learning and teaching. Post-class discussions were arranged as well for experience exchange. The above good practices of e-Learning were recorded on videos and uploaded to an online archive.
