Talk Series on Emerging Technologies – Science, Opportunities and Challenges 2024: The Solar Energy Solutions Towards Carbon Neutrality in Hong Kong

Date:

24 December 2024


Talk Series on Emerging Technologies – Science, Opportunities and Challenges 2024: The Solar Energy Solutions Towards Carbon Neutrality in Hong Kong


Venue:

Online via Zoom


Description:

Hong Kong government has set an ambitious goal of reaching carbon neutrality by 2050, and a critical strategy in its overall planning is to increase the deployment of renewable solar energy. In this talk, the speaker will discuss how we can rely on technological innovation to tackle this grand challenge; particularly, we have identified a new generation of printable, flexible, transparent, and colour-tunable solar cells as the most prominent photovoltaic technology to promote solar energy deployment in Hong Kong. Such a new generation solar cell technology can be integrated as tinted solar windows, façades, or curtains with buildings to generate significantly more solar electricity in an urban city, which usually has limited lands and rooftops for installing conventional silicon solar panels.

The speaker, Prof. YIP Hin-Lap, Angus is a Professor at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and School of Energy and Environment at City University of Hong Kong. He is the associate director of Hong Kong Institute for Clean Energy. His research focuses on understanding the structure-property relationships, device physics and photophysics, device design and optimization of 1) organic solar cells, 2) perovskite solar cells and 3) perovskite light-emitting devices(LEDs).

CoolThink@JC – “CoP on CT Implementation and Catering for Learner Diversity”and “CoP on Integrating CT into Subject Learning” Activities (Coding Education)

CoolThink@JC – “CoP on CT Implementation and Catering for Learner Diversity”and “CoP on Integrating CT into Subject Learning” Activities (Coding Education)

Date:

From November 2024 to March 2025

Introduction:

The Education Bureau is actively promoting STEAM in primary and secondary schools, and has announced the “Enriched Module on Coding Education for Upper Primary Level”, to help schools implement coding education more systematically. The curriculum units are adopted and adapted from CoolThink@JC programme. The Education University of Hong Kong, through the CoolThink@JC programme, will provide free teacher workshops related to coding education. The Artificial Intelligence and Digital Competence Education Centre (AIDCEC) at The Education University of Hong Kong has established two communities of Practice (CoPs) for teacher professional development, named “CoP on CT Implementation and Catering for Learner Diversity” and “CoP on Integrating CT into Subject Learning”. These communities aimed at providing teachers with opportunities for mutual exchange and helping teachers gain a deeper understanding of computational thinking education, specifically: (1) how to implement it in schools, (2) how to cater for learning diversity, and (3) how to integrate computational thinking into subject learning. Seven schools, which have rich experience in implementing computational thinking education (CTE), co-lead these communities of practice:

  • Chan Sui Ki (La Salle) Primary School
  • Fukien Secondary School Affiliated School
  • King’s College Old Boys’ Association Primary School No. 2
  • Li Cheng Uk Government Primary School
  • PLK Women’s Welfare Club (WD) Fung Lee Pui Yiu Primary School
  • Tuen Mun Government Primary School
  • W F Joseph Lee Primary School

We sincerely invite primary school teachers to participate in the Communities of Practice and related activities.

Should you have any questions, please contact Ms. Siu (corasiu@eduhk.hk) or Ms. Yip (ipwh@eduhk.hk).
