Using Technology in the NET Lessons at Precious Blood Primary School... and it's time for a new school year. 2026-27 is already upon us.

Over the last decade here at PBPS we have made a concerted effort to embed important tech life-skills and knowledge into our NET English lessons. We hope our students develop a good foundational knowledge of how they can use technology such as computers, iPads and smartphones to learn. From simple starts such as using a QWERTY keyboard to complex self-studying with VR, we want students to learn more than just 'English' in the NET lessons.  And of course, now that AI has arrived, we all need to learn the pros and cons: Teachers, Students, Parents.

Nowadays, with the right tech skills, we can teach ourselves so much. Becoming independent learners is very important for everyone these days. Instilling this self-reliance through a systematic approach to e-learning, whereby students build on skills from year to year, is one of the priorities of the NET lessons. This website is a showcase of some of the things we do at our school to encourage students to view technology as a very useful tool, not just something that enables gaming. And to do it through the medium of English. 

在過去的十年裡，在 PBPS，我們齊心協力將重要的技術生活技能和知識融入我們的 NET 英語課程中。我們希望我們的學生能夠掌握如何使用電腦、iPad 和智慧型手機等技術進行學習的良好基礎知識。從使用 QWERTY 鍵盤等簡單的開始到使用 VR 進行複雜的自學，我們希望學生在 NET 課程中學習的不僅僅是「英語」。 當然，現在人工智慧已經到來，我們都需要了解其優點和缺點：老師、學生、家長。

如今，只要掌握正確的技術技能，我們就能自學很多。如今，成為獨立學習者對每個人來說都非常重要。透過系統化的電子學習方法培養這種自力更生的能力，讓學生逐年提陞技能，這是 NET 課程的重點之一。該網站展示了我們在學校所做的一些事情，旨在鼓勵學生將科技視為一種非常有用的工具，而不僅僅是可以玩遊戲的東西。並透過

Last year students also used their tech skills to make a mini-movie for the HK EDB Filmit! Competition. 

Script-writing and storyboarding with the help of AI, then filming and editing - all in English. 

Great 'real-world' practice of the language skills they are developing in their regular English lessons. 

They were awarded a special recommendation for their work from the compeition organizers.
