Congratulations to Professor Yeung Yam of our Department and his team for receiving the Gold Award in the Smart People (Smart Education and Learning) Category in the Hong Kong ICT Awards.

Project: CUHK Jockey Club AI for the Future Project (led by Professor Yeung Yam)

Funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, CUHK Jockey Club AI for the Future Project brings together the strong expertise of CUHK Faculties of Engineering and Education. The Project’s objective is to create a new AI curriculum and a sustainable AI education model, with relevant supporting infrastructure, to establish an ecosystem conductive to AI education for Hong Kong’s secondary schools and to equip the next generation with AI knowledge and ethics. In 2021, the Project’s curriculum team, together with six local pioneering schools, published the first-ever AI Teaching and Learning Pack for junior secondary students.
