(1) Regular Curriculum
STEAM Education Committee evaluates and develops the current S1 and S2 STEAM regular curriculum constantly. The objective is to create the “Maker Culture”, which is one of the world’s educational trends. Starting from the school year 2022-2023, the teaching elements of aerospace science, aviation and artificial intelligence (AI) have been included.
(2) Large-scale Plans and Activities
The school was funded by QEF in May 2021. In the school years 2021-2023, a large-scale STEAM project was carried out: renovation of the STEAM laboratory, procurement of a large number of equipment and hardware, and conducting of teachers’ training workshops and students’ enhancement activities.
In addition, the school applied for “Secondary School IT Innovation Lab Funding Project” and was approved. Since the school year 2022-2023, the school keeps holding various STEAM activities and purchase diverse facilities and apparatus in order to make the activities even more interesting and intellectual. The school will keep applying for the funding project in the future with the aim of promoting sustainable development in STEAM education.
