Guizhou, Hong Kong and Macao share education resources

Nowadays, teachers can impart foundational knowledge of mainstream computer programming languages during lessons, guiding students through engaging case studies to explore the real-life applications of algorithms.

Such standardized teaching scenarios are now being replicated in Guizhou, Hong Kong, and Macao, where many young people are enhancing their digital literacy and cultivating skills needed in the digital era through free programming courses.

In 2022, the Macao China Innovation and Technology Development Promotion Association identified challenges in Guizhou's primary and secondary schools, including a shortage of information science education resources and weak teacher training systems.

To address this, the association collaborated with Sun Yat-sen University's National Supercomputing Center in Guangzhou to establish the online "Guizhou-Macao Science and Innovation Classroom" learning platform.

Since the end of 2022, the association has donated artificial intelligence and computer science programming introductory courses to 32 primary and secondary schools in Guizhou. It has also extended these resources to two schools in Macao and Hong Kong that have established sister-school partnerships with Guizhou.

This initiative enabled students across Guizhou, Hong Kong, and Macao to study the same information science curriculum. The program has directly benefited over 70,000 teachers and students across the three regions.
