“Writing computer programmes is like playing a jigsaw puzzle. You first finish the edges, and then move on to the inner sides. At last, you are going to find out the wrong pieces and put them back to their right places. I enjoy having programming lessons. It is the first in my lifetime that I feel fun in a classroom. I would like to see the ideas in my mind turn into reality. I hope I can apply what I learned in lessons to projects.”

“How do we create smartphones? The Internet? Artificial Intelligence? How can we control 1 and 0 in the digital world? These are all related to programming. It is not only a language, but also a tool to flip our world around, starting from nothing to everything. It trains you to be a fast learner, a logical thinker, and, most importantly, a person who never says never. It is exciting to see how we change the world with programs. With the aid of education, I believe that programming will be a frequently used language in our world, and even a core school subject one day.

“My hobby of coding was interestingly developed from being a robot builder of international robotics competitions. It is amazing to teach a machine to think and move. I always wonder why teams from other countries could have better performance with similar hardware design and I realise good programming is the key. I enjoy playing games, and also developing games. In which we can create a whole new world in a virtual environment.”

“Sciences and Technology enhance our education. Students’ smiles always remind me that teaching and learning can be so fun. Enjoyment facilitates active learning, that’s the reason I devoted to exploring how education can be empowered with IT. As a music lover and educator, I feel excited to implement Flipped Classroom in Music Education. It creates flexible curriculum including interactive activities in class. I’m thrilled to see that students were able to apply the knowledge taught in the videos afterwards. In the future, I wish to participate in researches on IT in Education and apply my experiences on music pedagogy.

“To flip or not to flip? That’s the question. Question of what you think Education is. When I was still a student, chances were given to me to think about what we can do, to flip our traditional teaching. Our 21 century of education is to offer students more time and space to learn independently. I found Information Technology is a key to this open this door. Thereafter, I learnt how to flip the classroom, how to use IT tools to teach interactively. That’s all IT opens my eyes.”
