Abstract

The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government, China, promoted the use of IT in education and aimed to have one-fourth of the curriculum incorporated the use of IT in assisting teaching and learning within five years. Three teachers in a primary school in Hong Kong were invited in this study. Each of the three teachers taught part of the subject syllabus with IT. They were then interviewed to express opinions, show feelings, share experience, and give suggestions. They are encouraged to report the encouragement and difficulties encountered during the teaching and learning process. All these first hand experience and challenges they faced are invaluable and are expected to be useful to shed some light on the implementation of IT in education in HK.
