What is CoolThink@JC?

EdCity, in collaboration with The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, will launch Level 1 of the self-learning course at the end of October. Specifically designed for primary school students, this course has been restructured based on the content of CoolThink@JC and will be presented in a brand-new format, continuing to cultivate students’ programming knowledge and helping them become pioneers and creators in the future digital world.

CoolThink@JC is an award-winning computational thinking curriculum, created and funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust and developed in collaboration with local educators and world-class academics, with the aim of inspiring students’ digital creativity. As an online self-learning course, students can now explore coding at their own pace, in a way that best suits their learning needs and time.

CoolThink@JC aims to mainstream computational thinking education in Hong Kong. To date, the curriculum has supported nearly 100,000 primary school students in developing their computational thinking skills. Through a hands-on, minds-on, joyful learning experience, students are empowered to become creators of technology, in preparation for a fast-changing digital future.
