Digital learning inspires students

August 3, 2025

The Government actively promotes the development of digital education, including through establishing a committee to formulate the policy direction, and schools are fully embracing the initiative through innovative teaching.

 

At The Hong Kong Management Association K S Lo College, the archery team utilises ARTEMIS - artificial intelligence (AI) technology that can track and analyse the user’s body position, developed by STEAM Club members - to support their training.

 

The detection system records the archers' movements in real-time as they shoot. With AI analysis, they have gained a more detailed understanding of their posture, helping them to improve their skills.

 

Archery team member Chow Kin-lam noted that with the system, feedback from the coach became more focused and objective.

 

“With this system, we can see the movement of the arrow in a delay camera after we shoot an arrow. We can also see the value of the key joint angle. In addition to giving me a more objective concept of my movements, the coach can also make a more precise specific guidance when adjusting the posture.”

 

Sports tech

The concept of integrating sports training with technology and AI originated from the school’s STEAM Club members. Under the guidance of their instructor, who also coaches the archery team, they spent six months developing the core functions of ARTEMIS.

 

Lin Ching-lui, a Secondary 5 student and one of the six developers, explained that one challenge was their limited programming experience, but their teacher provided significant support, assisting them in debugging the code and overcoming obstacles.

 

Archery coach and information technology teacher Lee Yik-tung highlighted that projects like this demonstrate the practical value of digital education.

 

“Some may think that too much guidance limits a student’s personal growth. However, I strongly believe that the first successful experience will spark their passion for programme development in the future, and I should be their strongest support.”

 

Beyond classrooms

The school’s Assistant Principal Lam Chun-lung pointed out that it promotes digital education both in the classroom and through its extracurricular programmes, emphasising that practical application is as crucial as academic content.

 

“We review and improve our computer and design-related subjects every year. This helps us make sure our lessons stay up-to-date with the skills needed in today's world. For example, we have added virtual reality (VR) design in our Secondary 2 curriculum because creating VR content is becoming an important skill.”

 

To enhance understanding of digital education trends, the Education Bureau recently held its first Digital Education Week. One flagship event was the three-day Learning & Teaching Expo, which included a special zone showcasing AI in teaching.

 

Continuous enhancement

Speaking at the expo, Secretary for Education Choi Yuk-lin outlined that last year’s Policy Address announced the formation of the Steering Committee on Strategic Development of Digital Education, which has now set the main focus and directions for Hong Kong’s digital education.

 

“The Education Bureau has integrated digital technology, including AI and coding, across school curricula. We also emphasise media and information literacy as part of values education to promote ethical and effective use of innovative technology both for learning and in daily life.

 

“Central to this digital transformation are our teachers, who serve as the driving force behind these changes. The Education Bureau supports them through targeted professional training, including AI applications and the use of AI tools in key learning areas and across the curriculum.”
