The New Territories South (NTS) Regional Headquarters and Tsuen Wan District (TWDIST) jointly invited Professor Eric Tsui of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University to conduct an inspiring webinar entitled “Use of Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) to facilitate Modern Organisational Needs” on May 20, drawing the participation of more than 20 officers.


Professor Tsui is an expert scholar in areas on “Automatic knowledge acquisition”, “Natural language processing”, “Case-based reasoning” and “Knowledge engineering tools” and he is the Honorary Advisor of the Hong Kong Police College on Knowledge Management (KM). During the webinar, Professor Tsui vividly illustrated ways and tools to make online training interesting and effective. In the question and answer session, when being asked if the use of online training could totally replace traditional training, he affirmed the value of traditional training. The webinar, well received by the participants, ended with a discussion session during which Deputy Commander of Shatin District Chan Kam-kuk, in the capacity of NTS KM Regional Coordinator, expressed appreciation to Professor Tsui for the valuable sharing.


Sergeant Li Chung-kai of TWDIST has used online teaching software for conducting training. He was glad that Professor Tsui had demonstrated some interactive tools used in a webinar to display statistics and enable participants to express opinions and answer questions in an interactive way.


Sergeant Chak Chi-sau of NTS Road Safety Team has earlier offered online teaching to kindergarten and junior primary school students. He said, “Professor Tsui introduced some advanced functions of teaching software, such as voting and group discussion, which could make webinars more interesting and interactive. Besides, the speaker could have a quick feedback to check if participants understand the content and make necessary adjustment.”


Inspector Kot Chung-ling of the Miscellaneous Enquiries Sub-unit of Tin Sum Division said that if all possible security problems were resolved, webinar software would be an innovative and useful tool for community engagement and supporting frontline officers’ work.
