How has the digital revolution transformed the ways students participate in class? Furthermore\, should teachers strive to keep pace with these technological advancements and incorporate them into their classrooms? In this panel discussion\, we have invited three professors to share their insights and experiences in engaging students in classroom settings with various application of technology. They will debate the necessity of integrating new and emerging technologies and AI into teaching practices to enhance student engagement. The discussion will initially focus on each panelist sharing their personal experiences and perspectives. Subsequently\, the floor will be opened for all participants to contribute their view on what is the key to student engagement in the digital age. \nAbout the discussion panel\nProf. Joseph Chan has a biomedical engineering background and dedicates himself to applying bioengineering technologies in the field of ophthalmology. His research interest lies in the design and testing of ophthalmic biomaterials\, surgical tools and diagnostic tools\, and the development of eye-on-a-chip microfluidic platforms for physiologically relevant studies in eye research. In terms of teaching\, he is currently developing teaching innovations for promoting eye health\, in particular the use of augmented reality (AR) technologies to educate students from healthcare-related disciplines and public the visual symptoms of eye diseases. \nProf. Loretta Kim is an Associate Professor in the School of Modern Languages and Cultures\, University of Hong Kong. She is a historian of late imperial and modern China. Her primary research areas include the comparative history of borderlands and frontiers\, Sino-Russian cultural relations\, and Chinese ethnic minority languages and literatures. Loretta also works on the preservation of languages with relatively small user populations and support for ethnic and other social identities that reflect the internal diversity of these groups and organic changes to “tradition” that occur in response to political and economic factors through her research. \n\nProf. Thomas Tsang is an Associate Professor at The University of Hong Kong\, previously led the Program Director for the Master of Architecture. Founded dehowprojects\, a design practice that investigates architecture and performance environments\, informed by codified conventional practices and resolved by scaffolding experiments drawing broader histories\, narratives\, and spatial-material traditions. His research project includes Sounding Architecture (2016-)\, Soundtecture (2019-)\, Archeological Performance (2019-)\, and Prophecy of Furniture (2020-). He has received many honors\, including a Marion O. and Maximilian E. Hoffman Rome Prize by the American Academy in Rome\, a Civitella Ranieri Fellowship\, a Mellon Visiting Artist at Wellesley College\, and recently Matakyev Research Residency at Arizona State University. \nHis curatorial projects include the Cloud of Unknowing: A City with Seven Streets (2014) with Roan Ching Yueh at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum\, MTR Art in Architecture Station at the Hong Kong West Kowloon (2013-2015)\, and Hong Kong Exhibition 16th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia (2018)\, and the HKACT! Act 10 Daedalus Drones for the New Vision Art Festival (2021) at the Asia Society Hong Kong Centre. His exhibition was shown at the Social Factory 10th Shanghai Biennale (2014)\, Muzeul Național de Artă Contemporană al României (2017)\, Sandwich Gallery (2018) in Bucharest\, and Inside-Out Museum (2013) in Beijing.\nThomas Tsang is the Program Director for the Master of Architecture and Associate Professor at The University of Hong Kong.
