Hours
Time Arrangement of Other Learning Experiences(OLE)
• OLE could be arranged within and outside normal school hours.
• Instead of rigidly allocating lesson time into a fixed number of lessons per week/ cycle, schools are encouraged to have an overall and flexible planning of lesson time for students throughout the three years of senior secondary education.
For example……..
For example:
• Career-related Experiences and Community Service could also be arranged after-school, post-examination, weekends, before or during vacations if required
• Aesthetic Development, Physical Development are most likely implemented in the form of structured lessons while Moral and Civic Education would commonly make use of the class teacher’s periods or assemblies. They could be flexibly built into both ‘weekly/ cycle’ timetable and other timeslots (e.g. an afternoon during weekdays, after school or Saturday) to ensure that students could have the the full opportunities to gain the experience.
School examples
Within Normal School Hours
(Proposed time-table for the NSS)
• PE lessons + structured programmes (40 hrs) – PE
• Class teacher period (20 hrs) - MCE
• Building on the existing practice, insert three sessions for OLE programme (Creativity / Art Workshop* - 40 hrs)
The content of the workshop will include all five components of the OLE
*work with an outside NGO
Example one: School A
Secondary 4
Activity curriculum (50 hours approx.)
Outside Normal School Hours
The activity curriculum covers the activities of five domains. They are
- Arts- Interest - Sports/PE - Leadership - Services
10 compulsory ECA sessions (20 hrs) + self-managed time (30 hrs)
As a policy of ECA, students are required to participate in every domain throughout the three years of school life. Totally ‘50 hrs participation’ is the recommended indicator (10 hrs on average for each domain).
OLE hours = 40 + 20 + 40 + 50 = 150 hours (150+150+105= 405 hr)

Creativity / Art workshop
The time table
- PE lessons (40 hrs) - PE
- Assembly / Class teacher period (40 hrs) - MCE
- Arts Education (e.g. Music, Visual arts ……) (20 hrs) - AD
- Religious Education (40 hrs) - MCE

• Charity Committee
• Chinese Society
• Christian Fellowship
• Community Youth Club

• Girl Guides……
Every student is required to participate in at least X numbers of Extra-curricular activity.
OLE hours = 40 + 40 + 20 + 40 + ECA = above 150 hrs (150+150+105=405hr)
Why OLE? Expected Outcomes of OLE
Whole Person Development: A balanced development Chinese virtues (Ethics, Intellect, Physical development, Social skills and Aesthetics)
Complement the examination subjects/ career-oriented studies
Building up life-long capacities:
To nurture informed & responsible citizenship
To respect for plural values
To adopt a healthy living style
To develop career aspirations and positive work ethics

Content
This approach aims to design a highly structured, ‘pre-packaged’ curriculum to incorporate most elements in OLE. Schools adopting this approach, usually have a strong tradition in testing out the curriculum among teachers through years.
This approach is usually adopted to create a structured framework/ ‘scaffold’ for slotting different kinds of activities for OLE into the school timetable. The strengths of this approach is its flexibility to change any programmes relatively easily d
ue to changes of situations over time. Strong staff consensus is needed
This approach is distinguished from the ‘pre-packaged’ Curriculum-based approach, by its non-sequential nature for OLE. NSS students would have the flexibility to a wide variety of activities. Usually schools will have a
strong ECA tradition and policy to ensure entitlements and quality.
This approach is adopted when schools have been enjoying a strong project learning culture in junior secondary students. Four main elements are usually found in implementing OLE, engagement, fun, learning, and ‘products that
matter’ (from Harvard Project Zero). Good for filling identified ‘gaps’.
Flexibility- An AD Example
• It is worth noting that the & suggested minimum time allocation * is to provide schools with guidance in planning and implementing OLE, in terms of curriculum time.
• Schools could implement Aesthetic Development (AD) in accordance with their own situation. The best way to deliver AD is to provide students with structured learning sessions, which are complemented with authentic arts activities outside the classroom. e.g. structured learning sessions - music and/or visual art lessons, seasonal structured arts programmes, structured arts learning days.
• e.g. authentic arts activities- extra-curricular/co-curricular activities and interest groups.
• However, the ratio between structured learning sessions and the related activities need not be rigid. What is more important is that schools should provide quality arts learning opportunities for their students.

A key to future success……
‘Students telling their own stories’
Every student is encouraged to build a Student Learning Profile SLP
What could be in the SLP? e.g.
1) Personal Particulars of the student
2) Academic performance in school (i.e. from school report cards)
3) Information of Other Learning Experiences
4) Participation and awards gained outside schools (if appropriate)
5) ‘Student’s Self-Account’ (if appropriate)

What are the existing school-based practice ?
• Most schools claimed they have their own system for OLE recording OLE inside the academic report
• Using different report sheets (non-academic reports)
• Multiple intelligence ‘Passport’
• Portfolio for on-going reflection
• Record inside the Student Handbook
• Powerful on-line system
• Learning diary ……..

Will SLP be considered in the university admission?
“Universities will consider taking account in their selection a broader range of information of student achievements in different areas and provide students the opportunity to demonstrate that they possess the range of competencies and personal qualities that they will need to benefit from undergraduate education. Schools will assist students to develop the SLP to provide comprehensive information about students’ performance in different areas and hence SLP has good reference value to universities.”

Some common Myths/ Misunderstandings about OLE & SLP
OLE = ECA SLP is assessment
All OLEs have to be highly-structured and in the lesso
n timetable
‘OLE entitlements’ mean everyone have to participate the sam
e programmes
OLE does not include ECA
Only teachers could take up OLE
CS means visits to Elderly homes
OLE needs
grading
OLE means abolishing PE lessons
CRE means only work attachment
Related experiences gained from subjects do not count
Experiences gained from ECA has less quality
Highly structured programme means high quality
Meeting hours requirement is all we need in OLE
What is Education?
“Education is not simply a technical business of well-managed information processing, not even simply a
matter of applying ‘learning theories’ to the classroom or using the results of subject-centered ‘achievement testing’. It is a complex pursuit of fitting a culture to the needs of its members, and its members and their ways of knowing to needs of the culture.” (Jerome
Bruner, The Culture of Education, 1966, p43)
