Impact Case Studies: Art and Social Change
Principal Investigator: Prof. LIM Kok Wai, Benny
2021-2024
Funding Source: Project Impact Enhancement Fund (PIEF), CUHK
Funding Amount: HKD 210,000
Project abstract:
This project will focus on arts for seniors and apply the research outcomes to specific projects in collaboration with an arts organization working with seniors in Hong Kong. The project has launched an open-access book project titled, Empower Arts, Animate Communities (co-edited by Benny Lim and Oscar Ho) in October 2021. The book documents all six editions of the Forum on Community Arts organized between 2014 and 2020. The comprehensive documentation includes the rationale of each forum and the summaries of the keynote speeches. Besides the documentation, the book has also included 13 new articles written by international scholars/practitioners on community arts. The project also led to the organization of two forums on art and social change in May 2021 and March 2022 respectively, where participants share their current practice and research on community arts as well as arts and ageing. The project will proceed to develop and document impact projects between 2023 and 2025.

“Bullet Screen” for Virtual Teaching and Learning: An Innovation for Online Collaborative Video Analysis
Principal supervisor: Prof. TAN Jia
Co-supervisors: Prof. CHUNG Peichi, Dr. LI Tiecheng
Sep 1, 2021 to June 30, 2023
Funding Source: Funding Scheme for Virtual Teaching and Learning, CUHK
Funding Amount: HKD 300,000
Project abstract:
The goal of this project is to develop and implement an online tool for video analysis as a virtual teaching and learning activity using the innovative function of “bullet screen”. Bullet screen, or danmu (彈幕), is a popular function in Asian video sharing websites where users can submit, view, and add textual commentaries flying in and out of screen like bullets while watching the videos online. The bullet screen as a learning tool enables students to watch the video at one’s own pace, pause anytime, and make comments in a virtual setting. Furthermore, it is designed to optimize collaborative online learning with video by encouraging interactions among students and between students and teacher while watching the videos as well as during face-to-face teaching by facilitate in-depth discussions of what was watched. The students can upload videos for others to comment on, which engages students to be partners in teaching and teaching development. As videos are increasingly effective across science, engineering, and humanities, this project serves as a pilot study that has the potential to be adopted by other courses university-wide for future uses. Ultimately, this project aims to develop a learning tool with bullet screen functions which is optimal for virtual as well as mixed-mode teaching and learning.
