Background	To support teachers using the Right Technology at the Right Time for the Right Task, the Depository of Curriculum-based Learning and Teaching Resources has been developed for teachers’ use since February 2011. The Depository including resources with user tips is designed based on the Subject Curriculum Guide for Hong Kong junior secondary schools. One of our purposes is to alleviate the teaching load on teachers in preparing teaching resources and unleash the potential of using IT to enhance learning and teaching. Resources are of large varieties which cover different learning targets and objectives of the existing curriculum in order to cater teachers’ diversifying needs.
Objective(s)	This course aims to: 1. introduce and demonstrate the usage of the learning and teaching resources in the depository; and 2. provide suggestions for effective use of digital resources in implementing e-Learning in Life and Society at junior secondary level.
Programme Description	1. Introduction to the Depository of Curriculum-based Learning and Teaching Resources (PSHE KLA – Junior Secondary); 2. Teachers’ sharing on the usage of the learning and teaching resources in the Depository; 3. Demonstration of cloud-based presentation tool which can be used in learning and teaching; 4.
