Applied Learning (ApL) is working towards the eighth cohort (2017-19 cohort) of implementation at the senior secondary level. Students at all ability levels could take ApL courses as elective subjects. The design principles of ApL courses are the same as those of other school subjects, focusing on the development of knowledge, skills and attitudes. ApL offers studies with equal emphasis on practice and theory linked to broad professional and vocational field. For holistic learning, a flexible combination of ApL with core subjects, elective subjects and Other Learning Experiences helps provide theoretical and applied learning opportunities to cater for students’ diverse learning needs. Students can opt to take a maximum of two ApL courses as elective subjects in Secondary 5 and 6.

由今個學年開始，教育局會全數資助學生修讀應用學習課程，加強支援學校為更多學生提供應用學習課程。

由2018年香港中學文憑考試開始，學生的成績匯報細分為：「達標」、「達標並表現優異(I)」和「達標並表現優異 (II)」，以進一步反映學生於應用學習的表現，以及提高大專院校及僱主對學生表現的了解。

在2016-18學年，已有22個應用學習課程與資歷架構第三級掛鈎。我們會進一步將更多應用學習課程與資歷架構 掛鈎。

In order to strengthen the support for schools in offering ApL courses to more students, the Education Bureau will provide full subsidy for students to take ApL courses, starting from this school year.

Effective from the 2018 Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE) Examination, the reporting of students’ performance is refined to “Attained”, “Attained with Distinction (I)” and “Attained with Distinction (II)” to better reflect students’ performance in ApL, as well as to enable post-secondary institutions and employers to have a better understanding of students’ performance and abilities.

In the 2016-18 cohort, 22 ApL courses have been registered in the Qualifications Register as certificate programmes at Qualifications Framework (QF) Level 3. More ApL courses will be linked to QF in due course.

最新發展

ApL aims to enable students to understand fundamental theories and concepts through application and practice and to develop beginners’ skill set and generic skills for further studies and work. ApL helps students explore their career aspirations and orientation for lifelong learning.

Starting from the 2014/15 school year, two Applied Learning Chinese (for non-Chinese speaking students) (ApL(C)) courses are also introduced to provide an additional channel exclusively for non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students fulfilling the specified circumstances* to obtain an alternative Chinese language qualification to prepare them for further studies and work. ApL(C) is designed from the perspective of second language learners and provides a simulated applied learning context for students to learn Chinese through different modes of activities. The duration of each ApL(C) course is 270 contact hours, extending over three school years at the senior secondary level.

* Students have learnt Chinese Language for less than six years while receiving primary and secondary education; or students have learnt Chinese Language for six years or more in schools, but have been taught an adapted and simpler curriculum not normally applicable to the majority of students in local schools.

應用學習旨在讓學生從應用及實踐中學習基礎的理論和概念，培養他們促進未來升學及就業的入門技能和共通能力，以幫助學生探索及了解就業及終身學習的路向。

由2014/15學年開始，教育局亦提供兩個應用學習中文（非華語學生適用）課程，旨為符合特定情況*的非華語學生提供額外途徑，獲取另一中文資歷，為升學及就業作好準備。應用學習中文（非華語學生適用）是從第二語言

學習者的角度設計，提供模擬的應用學習語境，讓學生透過不同的活動學習中文。每個應用學習中文 （非華語學生適用）課程的總課時為270小時，修讀期橫跨高中三個學年。

*學生在接受中小學教育期間學習中國語文少於六年時間；或學生在學校學習中國語文已有六年或以上時間，但期間是按一個經調適並較淺易的課程學習，而有關課程一般並不適用於其他大部分在本地學校就讀的學生。

成績匯報

Students taking ApL courses are required to attend lessons and participate in learning activities organised by course providers. The minimum attendance requirement of all ApL courses is 80% of the total number of contact hours.

ApL subjects are Category B subjects in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE) Examination. There is NO public examination for ApL subjects. The assessment of each ApL subject is comprised of 6 to 10 tasks undertaken over the course of study. Assessment information regarding each ApL subject is available on the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority (HKEAA) website below:w w w . h k e a a . e d u . h k / e n / H K D S E / a s s e s s m e n t / s u b j e c t _information/category_b_subjects/

學生必須出席課程提供機構的課堂，並參與相關的學習活動。所有應用學習課程的最低出席率不得少於總課時的80%。

應用學習科目屬香港中學文憑考試中的乙類科目，科目不設公開考試。每個應用學習科目的評核，包括六至十個評估作業，於修讀期間進行。有關評估方面的資訊，可瀏覽香港考試及評核局以下網頁：w w w . h k e a a . e d u . h k / t c / H K D S E /assessment/subject_information/category_b_subjects/

應用學習科目的成績會記錄在香港中學文憑上。由2018年香港中學文憑考試開始，學生的成績匯報細分為：「達標」、「達標並表現優異(I)」和「達標並表現優異(II)」，作為升學及/或就業用途。「達標並表現優異(I)」的表現水平等同香港中學文憑考試甲類科目第三級的成績，而「達標並表現優異(II)」的表現水平等同第四級或以上的成績。至於應用學習中文（非華語學生適用），則沿用「達標」和「達標並表現優異」的等級。有關再細分等級的問題，我們會收集更多資料，作進一步考慮。學生如表現低於「達標」的水平或出席率少於總課時的80%，其成績會被評定為「不達標」，並不會在證書上匯報。

除香港中學文憑資歷外，部分應用學習課程已載錄於資歷名冊，屬於資歷架構第三級的證書課程。應用學習中文（非華語學生適用）亦與資歷架構第一級至第三級掛鈎。學生達到不同級別的評核及出席率要求，將會獲課程提供機構頒發相應級別的資歷架構證書。詳情可瀏覽資歷名冊網頁。www.hkqr.gov.hk

The ApL results are recorded in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education (HKDSE). Effective from the 2018 HKDSE Examination, the reporting of students’ performance is refined to ‘Attained’, ‘Attained with Distinction (I)’ and ‘Attained with Distinction (II)’ for the purposes of further studies and/or work. Performance of ‘Attained with Distinction (I)’ is comparable to Level 3 while ‘Attained with Distinction (II)’ is comparable to Level 4 or above of Category A subjects of the HKDSE Examination. For ApL(C), ‘Attained’ and ‘Attained with Distinction’ will continue to be used. Refinement of these levels would be considered when more data is collected. Candidates with performance below the standard of ‘Attained’, or attendance rate below 80% of the total number of contact hours, will be designated as ‘Unattained’, which will not be reported on the HKDSE certificate. In addition to the HKDSE qualification, some ApL courses are registered in the Qualifications Register as certificate programmes at Qualifications Framework (QF) Level 3. ApL(C) courses are also pegged at the QF Levels 1-3. Students will obtain QF certificate(s) issued by course providers in addition to the HKDSE qualification upon meeting the assessment and attendance requirements. Please refer to the website of the Qualifications Register for details.www.hkqr.gov.hk

在升讀學士學位課程方面，各大專院校普遍認同學生在應用學習所累積的學習經驗。各院校、學院、學系或課程會分別以應用學習科目作為選修科目、給予額外分數或作為額外的輔助資料。

在升讀副學位課程方面，學生如在香港中學文憑考試其中五科（包括中國語文科及英國語文科）達到第二級或以上的成績，便可報讀副學士學位課程及高級文憑課程。學生最多可提交兩個應用學習科目的成績，以報讀該等課程。

應用學習中文（非華語學生適用）的「達標」成績獲大學教育資助委員會資助院校及絕大部分專上院校接納為非華語學生報讀課程所需的其他中國語文科資歷的基本等級要求。

For further studies in undergraduate programmes, tertiary institutions in general value the learning experiences students acquired in ApL. ApL subjects are used as elective subjects, or considered for award of extra bonus or additional information, varying by institutions, faculties, departments or programmes.

For sub-degree programmes, students with Level 2 in five HKDSE subjects (including Chinese Language and English Language) are eligible to apply for admission to both Associate Degree and Higher Diploma Programmes. Students’ ApL results are also counted and up to two ApL subjects may be used in their applications.

ApL(C) is accepted by the University Grants Committee-funded institutions and most post-secondary institutions as an alternative qualification in Chinese Language for the admission of NCS students with “Attained” as the minimum grade required.

學生可透過應用學習課程所提供與職業相關的情境，加深對各行各業的認識，而實習環節亦讓學生獲取寶貴的實踐經驗。這些體驗不但可開拓學生的視野，更可協助他們在特定的範疇內探索及了解就業及終身學習的路向。

公務員事務局在聘任公務員時，將會接受應用學習科目在香港中學文憑的成績（最多計算兩科）。公務員事務局亦接納應用學習中文（非華語學生適用）的「達標」和「達標並表現優異」成績為符合有關公務員職級的中文語文能力要求。詳情請參閱公務員事務局以下網頁：www.csb.gov.hk/tc_chi/info/2170.html

Through the career-related contexts of ApL courses, students can familiarise themselves with a wide variety of professions and trades. They will also gain precious experience from the practicum sessions of these courses. These eye-opening experiences help them explore their career aspirations and orientation for lifelong learning in specific areas. For the Civil Service Bureau (CSB), students’ ApL results in HKDSE (up to a maximum of two ApL subjects) will be accepted for civil service appointment purposes. CSB also accepts “Attained” and “Attained with Distinction” in ApL(C) as meeting the Chinese language proficiency requirements of relevant civil service ranks. Details are available on the website of CSB below:www.csb.gov.hk/english/info/2170.html

The ApL“Applied Psychology”

course I took was more about

knowing different things of life and

ways to improve oneself rather

than memorising facts. Much of

the lessons required our active

engagement, reflected upon cases

and applied what we learned. After the first year, I received

the Law’s Scholarship because of my good performance

in the ApL course. That really built-up my self-esteem

and regained my confidence in studying. The ApL course

has inspired me to become a Forensic Psychologist in the

future. I am now taking the Associate Degree of Social

Science in Applied Psychology programme.
