Title:
SciPOP Science Presentation Contest
Description:
To foster the pursuit of science knowledge among secondary school students, to enhance their presentation and communication skills, and to nurture young scientists in Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Science Museum, the Faculty of Science of The Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Education Bureau are jointly organising the “SciPOP Science Presentation Contest” and the “Young Scientists Study Tour” in 2017.
Natural phenomena such as earthquakes, landslides, super typhoons, floods and severe droughts are happening from time to time. They are devastating and catastrophic, and usually cause heavy casualties. Their occurrences seem uncorrelated but actually they may have direct or indirect interaction with each other. The study of these natural phenomena is related to the Earth sciences and astrophysics. To elevate students’ interest and to broaden their knowledge in the latest research of Earth sciences and astrophysics, we are organising the contest and the study tour with the theme of “Sky and Earth”.
