SUMMARY:COVID-19 Writing Competition 2020-2021
DESCRIPTION:Result Announcement\n\nOverview\nOf all infectious disease outbreaks in recent times, none have had such an impact on Hong Kong as COVID-19. Secondary school students have been uniquely affected by the outbreak. Not only have their current studies been significantly disrupted but their future plans have been challenged by the disease. The question is how?\nTo answer this question, we would like to invite secondary school students to submit short essays for a winter writing competition on COVID-19. These essays will directly address the challenges facing students today and in the future. With this in mind, there will be two topics for the essays:\n(1) Oral History: What has been the impact of COVID-19 on your life in Hong Kong?\nFor this topic, we would encourage authors to talk with their families, their friends as well as members of the local community. Identify common themes and topics and write an essay using the oral comments from those you have spoken with.\n(2) Back to the Future: What was the impact of COVID-19 on life in Hong Kong?\nGo fifty years into the future. Look back on your own experiences and on how the disease shaped Hong Kong’s future direction. Be as creative as you want. You could write from your own perspective – such as a diary entry or a letter – or tell a fictional story. Up to you. Just remember to place the impact of the virus at the centre of your story.\nCategories for Submission\nTwo Topics :\n(1) Oral History\n(2) Back to the Future\nTwo Streams: DSE or Open\ni. Junior (S1-3)\nii. Senior (S4 or above)\nPrizes\nWinners in each category/stream will receive:\nFirst: HK$1,000 book coupons\nSecond: HK$500 book coupons\nEvent Details\nPlease refer to the event poster.\n Instructions for Submission \nPlease read the instructions for submission, and submit your work to COVID19.competition@cityu.edu.hk ( mailto:COVID19.competition@cityu.edu.hk ).\nClosing Date\n22 February 2021, Monday, 5pm\n
