KW - liberal arts education, all-rounded education, higher education.
AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">Education has had a long journey in different societies with different cultural backgrounds. All-rounded education has long been advocated in this long journey. Education today should emphasise not only teaching knowledge and skills but also nurturing
people with morality and integrity. While liberal arts education has flourished in the
West in recent years, by revisiting the approach and practice of education in the East
and West throughout history, traditional Chinese education is suggested to be highly
akin to the liberal arts education of today. Knowledge explosion, recent rapid scientific
development, and also the impact of COVID-19 present severe challenges to higher
education of our time. To deal with these challenges and for building a better future,
a liberal-arts approach to education should be seriously considered by universities all
over the world.</p>
