Embedding AI Literacy in School Mathematics: A Design-Based Study of Curricular Innovations in Data Handling and Probability

Principal Investigator (2027-). This design-based study envisions a mathematics curriculum centered on data handling and probability, embedding real-world AI contexts into conventional mathematical topics. Rather than focusing on introducing new and rapidly evolving technologies, this study adapts existing curricular materials to reflect students’ everyday experiences with AI. Topics such as statistical charts, central tendency, data dispersion, … Continue reading Embedding AI Literacy in School Mathematics: A Design-Based Study of Curricular Innovations in Data Handling and Probability

Investigating the Secondary–Tertiary Mathematics Transition in Hong Kong: Toward Local and Global Significance

Principal Investigator (2026-). The study surveys and informs the curricular learning and instructional practices of upper secondary and tertiary mathematics, drawing upon different methodologies (quantitative/qualitative) and epistemologies (cognitive/sociocultural). It will develop an instrument and quantitatively assess the participating teachers’ and students’ mathematical competence in the topics of pre-calculus and calculus, which are major domains in … Continue reading Investigating the Secondary–Tertiary Mathematics Transition in Hong Kong: Toward Local and Global Significance

Mathematical Problem Solving through Digital Making: Envisioning a Computationally Enhanced Mathematics Curriculum in Hong Kong’s Primary and Secondary Schools

Principal Investigator (2021-2024). This study builds on the PI’s previously developed conception of “learning as Making” to envision a computationally enhanced mathematics curriculum. It will inform the “big picture” of how using computers might fundamentally change mathematical thinking, with an emphasis on mathematical problem solving (and more generally, STEM learning). Funded by the Research Grants … Continue reading Mathematical Problem Solving through Digital Making: Envisioning a Computationally Enhanced Mathematics Curriculum in Hong Kong’s Primary and Secondary Schools
