Faculty of Education and Human Development, Education University of Hong Kong

The WYNG Foundation is currently supporting two scholars from the Faculty of Education and Human Development to collaborate with the Faculty of Education of McGill University (Canada) to work on a project that aims to enhance Hong Kong pre-service teachers’ mental health and well-being. The project will have three phases: (1) need assessments and control group study to understand the mental health of pre-service teachers, (2) the development of the Hong Kong version of Regulating Emotions and Stress in Pre-Service Teachers (HK-RESST) program by adapting the McGill University’s Regulating Emotions and Stress in pre-Service Teachers (RESST) program and a pilot evaluation of the HK-RESST to inform program revisions, and (3) evaluation of the revised HK-RESST program and dissemination of the findings.
