Partnering Ho Yu

與可譽合作

The Biotech Lab, which is the headquarter for the MobileLab Program, was established at Ho Yu College and Primary School (Sponsored by Sik Sik Yuen) in Tung Chung in April 2004. The Biotech Lab is well-equipped with advanced instruments and equipment at the university level. The Biotech Lab serves as the venue and functional platform on which the MobileLab Program launches the Biotech Education Program to schools across Hong Kong.

流動實驗室計劃的總部生物科技教研室於2004年4月在嗇色園主辦可譽中學暨可譽小學成立。教研室配有大學水平的先進生物科技儀器與設備,是流動實驗室向全港學校推廣生物科技教育的平台。

We have collaborated in developing the school-based Biotech Education with Ho Yu science teachers since 2009. This Biotech Day Program is offered to all students from Primary Three to Secondary Six, focuses on the two major areas of biotechnology, namely, DNA and Genetics (from “Paper and Candy DNA Models” to “DNA Fingerprinting”), and Microbiology Exploration (from “Where are the Germs?” to “Effects of Antibiotics on Bacterial Growth”).

從2009年起,我們就與可譽科學組老師合作發展校內的生物科技教育,推行生物科技日,向小三至中六學生提供不同程度的生物科技課程,內容主要是DNA與遺傳(從「摺紙和糖果DNA模型」到「DNA指紋分析」)以及探索微生物世界(從「何處覓細菌?」到「抗生素對細菌生長的影響」)。

Promotion of Science Education at Ho Yu 在可譽推行科學教育

In addition to the school-based Biotech Education, we have collaborated with Ho Yu in developing and delivering the “Science@Lunch” and “Science@Home” programs to Ho Yu students and their parents.

除校本生物科技教育之外,我們還與可譽合作推行了「午間科學」和「家長也科研」計劃讓可譽學生與家長參與。

Science@Lunch 「午間科學」

We have launched the “Science@Lunch” Program at Ho Yu since 2006. We deliver the program to all students at Ho Yu at the primary and secondary levels during lunch time in order to promote science and biotechnology among students. Topics presented in the program range from microbiology to food technology to human genomics.

我們自二零零六年開始在可譽推行「午間科學」計劃,專門在午膳期間為中小學生提供活動,旨在更廣泛普及科學與生物科技知識。活動主題囊括微生物學、食物科技乃至人類遺傳學。

The program includes short lectures, discussions, and hands-on experiments. Students are excited and thrilled by the comprehensive lecture contents and the practical lab work.

計劃包括簡短的講解、互相討論和親手做實驗。無論是易於理解的課題,抑或是可親自動手的實驗,都深受學生歡迎。

We also apply this concept to other schools as the “Science@Your School” Program.

我們亦以「趣『至』科學」計劃的形式在其他學校推行類似活動。

Science@Home 「家長也科研」

The “Science@Home” Competition is offered to for primary students and their parents every summer to explore the fun of science at home since 2009. The topics are related to daily lives, for example, “Lemon Power”, “Phantom Speedboat”, “Melting Ice Cubes”, “The Quest for Longevity”, “Feeble Attraction”, “Persistent Bubbles” and “Floating Eggs”.

自二零零九年起,我們每年暑假都舉辦「家長也科研」比賽供小學學生與家長在家中探索科學的奇妙。主題都與日常生活息息相關,如:「鮮檸發電機」、「幽靈船」、「快速融冰」、「『徐福』茶」、「『弱』即若離」、「不破泡泡」與「浮蛋」等。

Student Science Projects 學生科研項目

Ho Yu Students carried out scientific investigation on various projects in the biotech lab, including, “Preserve and Serve”, “Edible Paper”, “The Secret of Ginger Milk Curding”, and “Beefase”, etc.

可譽學生在生物科技實驗室內進行過多項不同的科學探討活動,包括「『漬』之物語」、「點『紙』咁環保」、「薑汁撞奶—成分與機制」與「牛肉鬆」等。
