本書作者於2016年出版首本中文著作《50個教育法—我把三個兒子送進了史丹福》後,引來巨大回響,大半年間十次再版,並高踞當年香港暢銷書榜榜首。每次出席香港及內地的分享會,均被家長、教師包圍簇擁,請教如何面對孩子的學習疑難。她感同身受,開始研究香港的教育問題癥結所在,並寫成《40個教育提案—把快樂帶回給香港學生》(中/英文),希望作為禮物送給香港人,以回報生於斯長於斯的地方。
本書的40個教育提案涵蓋學前教育、幼稚園、小學、中學、大專、老師及其他方面。前言探討思考教育的本質,從香港的教育歷史出發,指出殖民地時期教育理念的缺失,從而提出今天教育的精神,不再是留強汰弱,而是如何適應21世紀對人才的要求,如何提供更多的選擇,以如何發揮每個人的價值。因為有信念,亦有不同教育體系的經驗,因此令作者提出的40個教育改革,顯得一氣呵成,而非支離破碎。

Hong Kong education and its issues have captured significant attention in recent years. Notable examples include the education reform, national education curriculum, liberal studies, STEM, Chinese history and cultures, TSA, and extra HK$5 billion for education. While we believe that every policy is initiated by a sound vision, the education policies have created immense pressure and discontent on students, teachers, and parents. What are the root causes - problems with execution? Insufficient support? Lack of resources? Somethings wrong with our philosophy of education? In this book, Dr. Agnes Chan will give you 40 proposals to bring happiness back to education students.
