本學系在教學中運用不同的網上學習平台，如Moodle 與 Mahara，大部分的課程均要求學生主動參與每週1至2小時的網上討論。學生透過這些平台，能重溫課堂筆記和影片，讓他們加深對課堂內容的理解，又能推廣自主學習，讓他們切磋砥礪與交流意見。
此外，這些網上平台能讓教師隨時發放教材、管理評測與問卷、收集作業；同時給予學生機會發問及回應來自老師或同學的問題。通過網上平台，教師亦可安排學生與海外學生交流，讓他們體驗和學習文化之間的異同。

To give students a real experience of explaining cultural differences in a non-essentialising way, she added online, cross-cultural interaction between students of EdUHK and the University of British Columbia. Positive impact on student learning, especially in terms of avoiding stereotyping, was evidenced.
