Projects


The Development and Validation of Teacher Accountability Scale in Chinese Societies The aim of the project is to develop and validate a scale, which is the Chinese Version of Personal Accountability Measure (PAM-Ch), to assess the subjective aspect of teacher accountability in Chinese societies. To achieve this aim, the PI conducts studies in Hong Kong and Beijing to test the validity and reliability of the PAM-Ch. The two cities are selected because they share similar cultural backgrounds, namely Confucian tradition, but share different education systems – Hong Kong is a more decentralized and neoliberal governance system, but Beijing is a more centralized and social governance system. Therefore, the research findings are likely to apply to both education systems in different Chinese societies. Project Start Year: 2022, Principal Investigator(s): TSANG, Kwok Kuen
