Programme at a Glance

Keynote Speech:
Pioneering AI and AI-Enhanced Education in Hong Kong: Student Empowerment through Curricular Innovations, Interactive Learning, GenAI Competence, and Ethical Literacy

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping the educational landscape, and Hong Kong is proactively driving innovations in pre-tertiary AI and AI-enhanced education. This keynote will showcase cutting-edge curricular advancements that empower students with foundational AI knowledge, toolkit-based interactive learning, comprehensive GenAI competencies, and essential ethical literacy. Additionally, we have developed a curriculum-guided, knowledge-grounded question-answering system powered by generative AI to enable personalized learning with secure on-premises deployment. The talk will also illustrate how we leverage AI technologies to effectively personalize English language education, enhancing essay writing, reading comprehension, listening skills, and interactive group discussions. Ultimately, our aim is to nurture learners who are not only technically proficient in AI but also ethically responsible and confident digital citizens, fully prepared to thrive in an increasingly AI-driven future.

Panel Discussion (I):
Foundations for the Future: AI Literacy in Primary Education

    How can primary classrooms introduce Artificial Intelligence (AI) in ways that are meaningful, engaging, and safe? Join us to explore practical strategies for embedding foundational AI concepts into early learning curricula. Discover creative activities that spark curiosity, boost language and STEAM skills, and nurture students’ emotional growth. Explore inclusive, ethical approaches to AI education that empower young learners to become confident, compassionate, and digitally competent citizens.

Panel Discussion (II):
The AI Advantage: Empowering Secondary Students with Innovative Thinking and Skills for Tomorrow

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping education, transforming how students learn and interact with the world around them. How can secondary schools thoughtfully integrate AI to nurture innovative thinking and provide students with essential skills for the future? This panel will explore practical strategies for incorporating AI into secondary curricula, highlighting approaches that promote creativity, critical thinking, and socio-emotional well-being. Panelists will also discuss key ethical considerations and broader societal implications of AI, offering educators valuable insights to empower all students as confident, responsible, and engaged digital citizens.
