Matrix 矩陣

(Course Code 課程編號：M104)

Description

課程簡介

：

Matrix is the foundation of advanced mathematics. Matrix arises from the need to solve systems of linear

equations. Despite its humble origins, matrix ends up playing a profound role in both pure and applied

mathematics, as well as in all science and engineering, computer science, statistics, economics,

mathematical biology and many other disciplines. Topics to be covered in this course include systems of

linear equations, Gaussian elimination and inverse matrices.

矩陣是學習高等數學的一個重要工具，它最初用於解線性方程組，看似微不足道，但對於純數學、

應用數學、科學、工程、電腦科學、 統計學、經濟學、數學生物學的研究發揮重要貢獻。本課程將

討論線性方程組、高斯消去法及逆矩陣等內容。

Molecular Science in Personal Care Products 個人護理品的分子科學

(Course Code 課程編號：C102)

Description

課程簡介

：

Proper use of personal care products (including skin-care products, sunscreen/ sunblock products,

deodorants, hair-care products, etc.) translates to an art of enhancing physical beauty and personal

attractiveness. But what is a chemist’s viewpoint - a molecular approach? For example, the texture,

whitening effect and anti-oxidizing functions of a skin-care product are the results of structural differences

in the molecules which are invisible to the naked eyes. Indeed, abundance of knowledge lies behind common

personal care products that we encounter in our everyday life. By understanding the science behind the

products, we could stay clear-headed in judging what the TV commercials and advertisements are trying to

instill in us every day. For example, does the foam hair dye work better than the traditional ones? Can some

specific hair treatment products really prevent frizzy hair?

In this course, students will not only learn the chemistry involved in these products and work on a

presentation focusing on a topic of their interest, they will also carry out a hands-on experiment using a

modern chemical instrument for quantitative analysis of a personal care product.

談及個人護理品（包括護膚、防曬、止汗、護髮用品等），一般人只想到這些是美化外觀及增加吸

引力的工具，但是從化學家的分子觀角度來理解又是怎樣的呢？例如一瓶護膚品的質地、美白效果

和抗氧化功能，是靠著肉眼看不到的分子結構差異，達到多樣化的護理功能，背後的分子科學知識

實在不少。只要了解產品背後的科學原理，我們便能夠理性分析廣告中所灌輸的產品功效。例如：

泡泡染髮劑比傳統染髮劑是否更加有效？某些護理產品是否真的能預防頭髮乾燥問題？

在本課程，學生除了有機會認識個人護理品背後的化學知識，以及就自己感興趣的題目進行專題研

習，更可動手利用現代化學分析儀器，就個人護理品進行定量分析的實驗。

Programming Fun with Scratch. Scratch 趣味編程

(Course Code 課程編號：D001)

Description

課程簡介

：

The ability to code computer programs is an important part of literacy in today’s society. Coding allows you

to use computer as a tool to express yourself and realize your creative ideas. Most programming languages,

on first glance, "look like Greek" to the untrained eye. Is programming hard to learn? Am I capable to do it?

Which program language should I learn first?

Scratch is a programming language developed by MIT Media Lab. By representing programs' building

blocks with color-coded blocks, Scratch "lowers the bar" to programming, allowing you to focus on

problems rather than syntax. With drag-n-drop, you can easily create projects with audio and video effects,

and share your creations with others.

This course starts with basic operations in Scratch. Via lectures and hands-on labs, you will program your

own interactive stories, games, and animations. Learning to program is ultimately about learning to think

logically and to approach problems methodically. Basic programming principles, e.g. variables, arrays,

controls, loops, data abstraction and objects, are introduced in the course too. These are universal principles

for any modern programming language, and will be beneficial if you want to go further in coding.

每個人都可以學習編程！學習寫程序可以讓電腦成爲你的工具，幫你表達自己、實現創意。但程式

語言不斷更新換代，不同語言有不同適用目的，該學哪一種呢？一行行密密麻麻的代碼，看起來只

有專業人士才能勝任。

Scratch 是由美國 MIT 開發的可視化計算機編程語言，方便易用的「拖放」界面，可幫助你輕鬆愉

快的編寫有動畫聲音效果的程序，更可以與他人在線分享。

本課程從教授 Scratch 的基礎知識開始，通過編程實踐，幫助你創建互動式故事、遊戲或是動畫。

但課程不止於此，它同時滲透了計算機科學的基本概念，例如面向對象、參數、控制、交互等；學

生的邏輯思維及分析問題能力會得到強化。這些概念適用於任何編程語言，可以幫助你在未來接觸

更加深入、真正的編程。

subject. The Scratch course (first offered in Summer 2016) was very well received by students. Dr. Li uses

fun, inspiring examples and interactivity to promote creativity in her classes.

Young Electronics Engineer 少年電子工程師

(Course Code 課程編號：E101)

Description

課程簡介

：

This course aims at providing students a learning opportunity for university level courses on electronics

engineering through the teaching of reverse thinking skills. Different from conventional teaching which

normally starts from theory, in this course, we start from an engineering design problem. Students will be led

to the solution and understand the theories behind the solution during this experiential learning process.

Specifically, students will have the chance to construct various electronic gadgets (e.g. electronic calculator,

electric piano, etc.) using common electronic components available in market (e.g. integrated circuit, LED

and infrared receiver, etc.). Ultimately, the course will stimulate their interests in electronics engineering.

本課程透過逆向思維教學讓學生提早接觸在大學所教授的電子課程。與一般從理論出發的教學不

同，本課程以解答電子工程設計問題為起點，學生將利用坊間可購買的電子零件（如集成電路 IC、

LED、紅外線收發器等），製作多項電子習作（例如電子計算器、電子鋼琴等），從實際體驗中明白

背後的運作原理，藉此提高對科技的興趣。

Plants, Fungi and Insects 植物、真菌及昆蟲

(Course Code 課程編號：B103)

Description

課程簡介

：

Living creatures are ubiquitous on planet earth. Various kinds of organisms are basic resources for mankind,

and are used for food, medicines, building materials, land protection and ornamentals. The threats of global

warming in recent years alert everyone to protect our natural environments. It is our fundamental

responsibilities to know more about plants, fungi, insects, and protect these organisms.

This course will introduce some interesting aspects of plants, fungi, and insects, including their species

diversity, classification, structures and functions, their ecological roles, and interactions within the

ecosystems - including their relationships with mankind. Students will explore more on the topics through a

series of instructional activities such as lectures, field trip, laboratory exercise, etc. Ultimately, the students

should develop a sense of respect to and appreciation for the mother nature.

生物在地球上隨處可見，許多生物是人類的基本資源，如提供食物、中草藥、建築材料；應用於水

土保持及園藝等。全球暖化日趨嚴重，大家均應關注自然環境，共同竭力創造更美好的生活環境。

而認識及保護人類周遭的植物、真菌及昆蟲，更是大家的基本責任。

本課程將配以實地考察，讓同學了解常見的植物、真菌及昆蟲的形態特徵、分類系統、在生態系统

的角色，以及物種之間的互動關係──包括與我們人類的關係。導師將以深入淺出的教學方法，透

From Genes to Behaviors 行為遺傳學

(Course Code 課程編號：B807)

Description

課程簡介

：

Long before the era of molecular biology and human genome project, people have often questioned: What

makes up animal and human behaviors? And how true is the saying "like father, like son"? According to

Mendelian genetics, simple inheritance like eye colors and blood groups are passed from parents to progeny.

Then how much do genes influence basic behaviors like foraging and sophisticated behaviors such as social

interaction and intelligence? This course aims to provide an introduction to the elements surrounding the

subject of behavioral genetics and how they interact with each other. Students will learn about the basics of

genetics, various animal models, classic and modern human studies, e.g. twin studies and genomic screening

that have been applied to reveal genes that associate with interesting behaviors, such as the “anxiety gene”

and the “happy gene”. In-class interactive activities not only will facilitate a better understanding of the

principles and methods behind behavioral genetics, they will also help students develop their critical

thinking and presentation skills.

在人類開始研究分子生物學及進行第一次人類基因計劃的多個世紀前，我們早已經常有這樣的疑

問：是什麼在驅使各種動物和人類的行為？俗語有云「有其父必有其子」，又是否準確？孟德爾遺

傳學告訴我們，子女身上一些簡單的遺傳特徵，例如瞳色和血型，是經過基因從父母繼承過來的。

在類似的推理下，我們的日常行為，不論簡單如覓食，或複雜如人類智慧、社交互動等，究竟有多

少是源於基因遺傳或受其影響的呢？本課程旨在對行為遺傳學，以及行為跟基因之間如何相互影響

的主要課題，作入門的介紹。學生將學習基本的遺傳學原理、運用動物及人類的經典和嶄新行為遺

傳學研究，當中包括具標誌性的雙胞胎研究與基因組篩選，及科學家是怎樣應用這些技術來揭示一

些跟我們生活息息相關的人類行為，如「焦慮基因」和「快樂基因」。課堂中將融入互動元素，不

僅有助學生理解行為遺傳學的理論和應用，更有助他們發展批判性思考與表達能力。

Look Inside Our Body - Animal Physiology 「解剖」動物生理學

(Course Code 課程編號：B808)

Description

課程簡介

：

In this course, we will use a comparative approach to examine the physiology of selected animal systems

(such as the circulatory, nervous and sensory systems) with an emphasis on vertebrates. We will also

examine how physiological systems are integrated and thus allow animals to respond in different

environments. Moreover, dissection demonstrations will be conducted by the instructor, through which

students can observe the structures and feel the textures of various organs, including frog heart, pig lungs

and ox eyes.

本課程會以脊椎動物的生理結構為基礎，集中觀察幾個重要的系統，例如循環、神經與感官系統等，

進而探討不同物種怎樣透過系統與系統之間的聯繫，去適應不同的生活環境。導師亦會在課堂上進

行解剖示範（如青蛙心臟、豬肺、牛眼），讓學生可以第一身觀察器官的結構和感受器官的質感。
