  • Biotechnology has become an important modern advance that has significant social implications. While it is getting more exposure in the news, awareness of its nature, applications, and social impact among teacher trainees and school teachers and students are limited. In Hong Kong Institute of Education, serious efforts have been demonstrated by science staff to incorporate biotechnology curriculum materials for existing and new Science & General Studies modules in sub-degree, degree and PGDE courses. A number of hands-on experiments on biotechnology have been continuously adopted from both foreign and local sources. Multimedia teaching resources on biotechnology, such as CDs, videos and relevant issue-based materials are obtained. Also, teaching guidelines regarding their use in the teaching and self-study purposes are being worked out. It is hoped that the trained graduates can help promote Biotechnology education to their pupils.
    生物科技近年取得突破進展,對社會影響日深。雖然有關的新聞報導越來越多,但一般老師和學生對其質、應用及社會衝擊所知有限。香港教育學院科學系,嘗試將生物科技課題併入証書課程、學位課程及教育文憑課程的科學單元和常識單元內。作者透過本港及外國的資料,引進了一些可行的實驗。此外,也發展了一些生物科技的多媒體教學資源,例如:光碟、錄像及時事輯錄等。同時還製備了有關的教學指引以供準老師教學及自修之用。
