The resource pack entitled International cooperation and regional politics since 1945 is published by
the Personal, Social and Humanities Education Section of Curriculum Development Institute, Education
Bureau (EDB). It supports teachers to promote learning and teaching in implementing the Senior Secondary
History Curriculum (updated version of 2014); and helps students study international economic, social and
cultural cooperation since 1945, and understand regional politics and cooperation of East Asia and Southeast
Asia from the perspectives of Sino-Japanese relations and ASEAN. The resource pack covers related topics in
both Themes A and B of the Senior Secondary History Curriculum. It will enhance students’ historical
understanding of the important trends which are affecting the world today, and develop their global
perspective.
With an aim to enrich teachers’ knowledge of these topics, EDB commissioned a team led by Professor
MAK King-sang of the Department of History, Hong Kong Baptist University to organize a series of 5
lectures for History teachers’ professional development in 2012 and produce this resource pack. The resource
pack contains lecture notes, five introductory video clips on relevant topics presented by seminar speakers,
and an assessment bank which is comprised of data-based questions, essays and extended learning activities.
The lecture notes and video clips are for knowledge enrichment, whereas the assessment bank facilitates
teachers to conduct assessment for learning. We suggest teachers to make adaptation to the assessment tasks
according to their own school contexts to cater for the diverse needs of their students. The content of this
resource pack has been uploaded to the website of Education Bureau for teachers’ reference and adaptation:
