Learning & Teaching Expo 2018 學與教博覽2018

How do we make students fall in love with STEM from an engineering point of view? How can teachers propel STEM education in the classroom?

Dr. Woo will introduce different ideas and methods to engage students in learning STEM, such as competitions and workshops that can be replicated in a classroom setting. The popular Underwater Robot Competition is also a great opportunity for both teachers and students to get hands-on experience in building a robot on their own, and learn problem solving skills during the process. Teachers can also get some inspiration for STEM education from a diverse range of activities organized under STEM@HKUST, which is a joint effort by a group of enthusiastic and innovative faculty members at HKUST aiming to support teaching and learning of STEM subjects in local schools.

我們如何從工程學的角度啟發學生提升對STEM的學習興趣？老師又如何能在課堂推行STEM教育？

胡博士將為大家介紹多種讓學生能主動學習STEM的意念及方法，例如一些可以在課堂環境中進行的競賽及工作坊。水底機械人大賽亦為師生提供自製機械人的實戰經驗，並從過程中學習解難技巧。同時，為支援本地學校在STEM相關科目的教與學，香港科技大學一群熱心教育、勇於創新的教授聯手策劃STEM@HKUST平台，老師可從參與STEM@HKUST所舉辦的一系列活動中，獲取推動STEM教育的靈感。
