NanoBio Lab's Prof Jackie Ying on the teaching of STEM subjects: "When students can grasp the context of what they are learning and digest difficult topics, they will feel much more motivated to learn. It would be important to give students more opportunities to do experimental work. Such hands-on learning will give them a deeper appreciation of the physical context of the subjects in addition to just understanding them from a theoretical standpoint."
