It is a must to raise the English standard of Hong Kong students in order to meet the need of the society. Reading is an essential requirement for the learning of the speaking, listening and writing skills of a language. It is also important for the promotion of lifelong learning, individualized and independent learning, collaboration and critical thinking skills, sense of appreciation, sense of participation or involvement in the reading process and taking responsibility for ones' own learning. It is unavoidable for life-long learners to read in the course of their study so as to understand ideas and concepts in texts, find relevant data and understand instructions and guidebooks. The government document "Learning To Learn --- The Way Forward" (EMB,2004) pointed out the importance of reading by putting 'reading to learn' into one of the four key tasks. There were three main objectives of this research. First, the correlation of ICT utilization and students' interest and understanding in reading were studied. Second, the possible ways of promoting critical thinking through ICT incorporated reading activities were sought. Third, the possible means to measure and record critical thinking were investigated. In this research, 32 students' abilities in the sub-skills, interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, explanation and self-regulation, of critical thinking skills were tested before and after the research to see if the reading programme could help to improve students' critical thinking ability. Students' opinions about reading English stories were collected by means of questionnaires before and after the research. iiExperimental lessons were observed to see the effect of the reading and discussion tasks on the learning of the students. One subject teacher and five students were interviewed to collect their opinions about the reading project. At the end of the research, it was found that ICT could probably make on-line English stories more interesting and easier to be understood and thus arouse students' interest in reading English stories. It was also found that discussing thought provoking questions in the discussion forum about stories improved ones' critical thinking power. In the course of designing the tools for finding out students' critical thinking abilities, it was found that there were many commercially made critical thinking tests. Teachers might use them as reference and design their own tests. iii DOI: 10.5353/th_b2995379 Subjects: Reading (Elementary) - Computer-assisted instruction - China - Hong Kong Critical thinking - China - Hong Kong - Evaluation School children - China - Hong Kong

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important text synthesizes the state of knowledge related to thinking and technology and provides strategies for helping young people cultivate thinking skills required to navigate the new digital landscape. The rise of technology has resulted in new ways of searching and communicating information among youth, often creating information “overload”. We do not know how the new technologies will affect the ways young people learn and think. There are plenty of warnings about the dangers of information technology, but there is also enormous potential for technology to aid human thinking, which this book explores from an open-minded perspective. Coverage Includes: - An up to date review of the literature on thinking skills in general, and in relation to technology.- Practical guidelines for thinking with technology.- A scholarly review of the characteristics of the digital generation.- A discussion of the various steps involved in the thinking process.- A historical context of the Information Age and the transition from oral history, to printing press, to the Internet. Thinking Skills for the Digital Generation: The Development of Thinking and Learning in the Age of Information is an invaluable reference for educators and research professionals particularly interested in educational technology, and improving thinking and problem-solving skills.
