Information & Communication Technology / Computer Literacy

Learning objectives

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is crucial in our contemporary society, with its importance extending beyond the technology itself to its role as an enabler of knowledge access and communication. Its rapid advancement has significantly influenced economic growth, business structure, education, and employment. It's particularly vital for Hong Kong's competitiveness in the global economy, necessitating educational focus to develop student interest and talent in ICT.

 

The senior secondary ICT curriculum in Hong Kong equips students with the necessary knowledge, practical skills, and understanding of technology-involved problem-solving processes. It's relevant across various aspects of modern life and diverse study fields, presenting intellectual challenges in problem-solving and communication. The course not only prepares students for ICT-related careers or further studies but also cultivates crucial skills such as critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving. 

 

The senior secondary ICT curriculum intends to:

 

  1. Offer students comprehensive knowledge, concepts, and applications of information, communication, and computer systems;

  2. Foster problem-solving and communication abilities in students, promoting critical and creative thinking;

  3. Shape students into proficient, ethical, and confident ICT users to facilitate their lifelong learning;

  4. Allow students to understand the impact of ICT on our knowledge-based society, cultivating positive values and attitudes towards this field.
