Microsoft Hong Kong Sponsors Minecraft Edutainment Programme; HKT and Lenovo Hong Kong Donates SIM cards and Laptop & Tablet Computers
The Share for Good platform accepts a wide range of donations that include learning materials for underprivileged students. The initiative has been supported by many private enterprises, including Lenovo Hong Kong and HKT, which are donating Lenovo ex-demo laptop and tablet computers, and 4G cellular SIM cards with 300GB of annual local data, respectively. Microsoft Hong Kong is also sponsoring 10 hours of Minecraft Education online classes. These classes introduce students to coding through a game-based concept, while also immersing them in Minecraft Education’s virtual Tsim Sha Tsui map, where they will be brought on guided tours and learn about sustainable community development through the district’s surroundings, history and culture.
The online learning programme is designed for students between Primary 4 and Form 3. Together with the donation by HKT and Lenovo Hong Kong, the joint donation creates an online edutainment package that allows underprivileged students to learn about Hong Kong and coding in a game-based learning environment. The package will be donated to three non-profit organisations participating in the Share for Good platform, including Children's Cancer Foundation, Hong Kong Single Parents Association, and Principal Chan Free Tutorial World, benefiting approximately 300 underprivileged students.
