Teaching kit on "Decision About Sexuality"
To encourage secondary school teachers to use the teaching kit on "Decision About Sexuality", the Education Department has compiled the Chinese version of the kit and make it more readily to use.
The main objective of the teaching kit is to provide teachers with instructional materials for the development of skills in handling interpersonal relationships and the inculcation of proper attitudes towards certain sexual issues.
Principal Inspector (Biological Sciences), Mr Ho Chung-nin, today (Friday) said: "During critical moments in different stages of life, making decisions about sexuality is inevitable.
"These decisions bring about lasting effects. Appropriately made decisions bring about pleasure and contentment, otherwise, detrimental impact on personality development may result."
The teaching kit highlights the main issues demanding decision-making which arise at various stages of maturity.
The materials are divided into three parts: teacher's manual, students' worksheets and fact sheets.
"In the teaching kit, much emphasis has been placed on advising students to seek parent-child understanding and co-operation in handling issues requiring decision-making.
"Teachers should understand that the family and parents may provide strong support and guidance to young people when they have to make crucial decisions."
