Overview
English for Transdisciplinarity
ArTech eCorpus for English Learning Across Boundary-Crossing Spaces (TDG/2223/03)
What We Focus On
Welcome to the Transdisciplinary Resources Hub!
This TDG project develops targeted English language support for students in HKBU's new transdisciplinary (TD) programmes. It delivers core components including a hub for publicity and a co-workspace for collaboration among students, language teachers, and subject teachers.
At its core is a word-pattern and article eCorpus with detailed annotations guided by the Multiliteracies Pedagogy framework. As the project and the wider university community have evolved, its scope has broadened to serve the growing number of transdisciplinary students seeking support from the Language Centre—extending beyond the original Art and Tech focus into the platform you see today.
Why This Project
This project responds to a critical need identified across several HKBU strategic documents published after 2023. The Language Education Paper highlights effective transdisciplinary academic communication as a vital student competency—aligning with the Language Centre's commitment to develop these skills and pilot a transdisciplinary e-learning platform.
