Hong Kong organisation pushing STEM learning for all

By ITS Education Asia

STEM education is increasingly gaining traction in Hong Kong as the government continues to emphasise its importance to future scientific and technological developments, but one non-profit group has noted a problem: not every teacher is trained to teach these disciplines well.

Hong Kong Children in Need Foundation Limited (HKCIN), sees opportunities in providing more resources for lower-income primary school students by empowering teachers with the necessary knowledge to educate the younger generation.

HKCIN will adopt a unique “train the trainer” approach, in which teachers will be trained by STEM professionals, providing them with the skill sets to teach primary school students. Full report in SCMP.
