課程宗旨

完成此課程後，學生能夠：

·       認識及辨別「期望」的形成，促成因素和影響

·       進深發展對自我能力的理解和信任

·       掌握提升覺察力的技巧及以正念的力量應對未來的挑戰

 

課程大綱

鼓勵學生探索及表達在學習，社交互動和個人/生涯發展方面，「期望」是如何激勵或為他們帶來困擾。通過反思和正念練習，學生可以提高自我覺察力，從而能擁抱/接納自己的感受和脆弱。當學生感到能夠作出改變，就不再被「期望」所囚禁或限制。正念練習可以應用於各種日常生活層面，支持資優學生的全人發展。

Course Objectives

Upon completion of the program, students are able to: 

• Recognize and identify how expectations are generated, contributing factors and influences

• Develop deeper understanding and trust of self-competency

• Acquire skills to enhance awareness and generate mindful energy to tackle future challenges​

 

Course Outline

Students are supported to explore and delineate how expectations motivate or distress them in terms of learning, social interaction and personal / career development. 

 

When students are able to articulate their own situation, with reflective mind and the practice of mindfulness, they can embrace their feelings and vulnerabilities with enhanced awareness. Students are empowered to be the change agent instead of being prisoned by expectations. Mindfulness practices acquired can apply in various daily situations that support the continuous and whole-person development of gifted students.

 

Target Participants / Prerequisite

For students completed S1 - 3 (Junior Secondary)/ S4 - 6 (Senior Secondary) and are interested in knowing more about tackling expectations and practicing self-acceptance.
