Supporting students\u2019 wellbeing through curriculum development has become an important agenda for higher education. In this seminar, the speakers will discuss a teaching and learning initiative \u2013  compassion-based pedagogy (CbP) that intentionally cultivates students\u2019 compassionate communication in group work and their compassionate mind for everyday life through experiential learning. The speakers will share their experiences in embedding CbP across the undergraduate counselling curriculum including the capstone project for promoting a supportive learning environment at the University of Hong Kong. The discussion will explore into students\u2019 perception and experiences about CbP, the initial effects on learning outcomes and students\u2019 wellbeing, the potentials of deploying it to other programmes in higher education and the challenges of developing students\u2019 compassion in the digital era.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\">About the speakers<\/h2>\n<p><strong style=\"color:#64c7bb\">Jessica Tang<\/strong> is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Social Work and Social Administration at The University of Hong Kong and the Deputy Programme Director of the Master of Social Sciences in Counselling.
