Members of the Education Commission (EC) attended the Learning and Teaching Expo (LTE) on 11 December 2024 to learn about the latest developments in learning and teaching, and educational resources and technologies. The LTE is a major event on the education scene, bringing together local, Mainland and overseas scholars, and education leaders and representatives to explore global education trends and engage in professional exchanges on learning and teaching development.
After attending the opening ceremony of the LTE, the EC members visited the exhibition highlights and interacted with students, teachers and exhibitors to gain insight into new high-quality educational resources, effective use of electronic tools in schools, collaboration in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics) education between schools and local, Mainland and overseas innovation and technology organisations and tertiary institutions, etc.. The EC members were glad that scholars and industry experts came to share views on information technology applications in learning and teaching, and students and teachers showcase their achievements in STEAM education, and their scientific and innovative thinking.
The EC Chairman, Dr David Wong, said that he fully supports the Government’s continuation of hosting international education conferences and exhibitions to further advance Hong Kong as an international education hub, attract global top talent, and promote higher quality innovative developments in Hong Kong education.
Participants of today’s activities included EC members Ir Dr Alex Chan, Dr Anissa Chan, Dr Sylvia Chan, Ms Mimi Cheung, Mr Eugene Fong, Mr Kwok Wing-keung, Professor Paul Lam, Dr Ling Yu-shih, Professor Isabella Poon, Mr Tony Tai, Dr Winnie Tang, Mr Donald Tong and Mr Dieter Yih.
