Law Cheuk Ecology Laboratory (羅焯生態實驗室) Print E-mail

To facilitate the learning and teaching in Geography, Law Cheuk Ecology Laboratory was set up in September 2012.  The Laboratory was converted from the former Geography Room.  The upgrade work aims to provide a wide range of support in the studies and projects on the ecology and the environment.

為促進地理科的學與教,羅焯生態實驗室於2012年9月成立。實驗室由前地理室改建而成,以支援生態和環境方面的研究。

Major upgrade work includes installation of gas supplies and additional drainages which support the needs of enquiry-approach pedagogies.  Geographical experiments and fieldworks are facilitated by the Laboratory.  Students are encouraged to take samples from the field and analyze them in the laboratory.

實驗室的改善工程包括新增煤氣供應和額外水源。這些設備改善大大促進了地理實驗及實地考察工作。學生能夠在野外搜集環境樣本,並帶到實驗室進行分析。

A series of curriculum modifications have been applied to the Social Science subjects in junior and senior forms, integrating experiments as a part of the teaching and assessment in Geography.

同時,初中和高中的社會科學科亦進行一系列的更新,把實驗融入教學和評估的一部分。

On 19 March 2015, the Laboratory was named Law Cheuk Ecology Laboratory to recognize the generosity of Mr Law Cheuk who kindly donated one million Hong Kong dollars.  The Grand Opening of Law Cheuk Ecology Laboratory was officiated by MsFlorence HUI, Under Secretary for Home Affairs, Hong Kong SAR Government and acknowledged by Po Leung Kuk Board of Directors 2014-2015 chaired by Ms. On-Kei Leong.

2015年3月19日,實驗室正式命名為羅焯生態實驗室,以表揚羅焯先生慷慨捐贈港幣一百萬圓予校方。羅焯生態實驗室的開幕禮由民政事務局副局長許曉暉女士主禮,並由2014-2015年度保良局董事會主席梁安琪女士答謝。

 

Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department of the Hong Kong SAR Government has kindly donated the Laboratory a number of products derived from endangered flora and fauna species, including ivory tusk, hippo teeth, Leopard Cat skin, pangolin skin, fox skin, crocodile, lizard skin, cobra skin, turtle plastron etc. These exhibits remind and educate the students about the importance of natural conservation.

漁農自然護理署亦向實驗室捐贈了一批瀕危動植物標本,包括象牙、河馬牙、山貓皮、穿山甲甲片、狐狸皮、鱷魚、蜥蜴皮、眼鏡蛇皮、龜甲等。這些展品提醒學生保育自然的重要性。

 

Apart from Geography, the Laboratory offers a wide range of support and assistance to Liberal Studies, other Social Science Subjects and advanced-level research-based learning.  It also supports school-based assessment, which requires students to carry out individual research studies on environmental issues.

除地理科外,實驗室亦為高中通識教育科、其他社會科學科目,及「進深研究為本學習」提供支援。實驗室亦支援和科目的校本評核,讓學生就環境議題進行研究。

Together with the set-up of the Laboratory, a wide range of instrument, equipment and apparatus have been purchased.  These include heating oven, incubator, multi-parameter bench-top meter, spectro-photometer, deionizer, Aerosol Monitor, Logger and Receiver of Global Positioning System, pocket weather meters etc.

隨著實驗室成立,學校設置了各種儀器及設備,包括高溫熔爐、細菌培育機,多功能水質分析儀、光譜儀、去離子水生產器、懸浮粒子監測儀、全球定位系統記錄器和接收器、手提氣象儀等。

In the future, the Law Cheuk Ecology Laboratory will continue its development into a laboratory focusing on the studies of ecology and environment.

未來,羅焯生態實驗室將繼續發展成一個以生態和環境研究為主的實驗室,讓同學在研究為本活動上有更大的發展空間。
