Overview
We live in an era of constant change, and the development of science and technology, the formation of more new industries, have changed our traditional way of life. However, due to poor information, there are still many people can not understand the most advanced science and technology, such as straw feed as a kind of feed made from crop straw, it can replace the traditional corn, soybean meal and other feed, reduce the cost of breeding, but also can reduce the pollution to the environment. In our view, there are several benefits to sharing scientific results:
Promote the dissemination and sharing of knowledge. Scientific knowledge is the crystallization of human wisdom. By sharing science, more people can understand and master this knowledge, and promote the dissemination and sharing of knowledge.
- Promote progress in scientific research. Sharing science can help scientists to better communicate and cooperate, jointly solve scientific problems, and promote the progress of scientific research.
- To improve the public awareness and understanding of science. By sharing science, the public can better understand the principles and applications of science, and improve the public's cognition and understanding of science.
- Promote social progress and development. The application of scientific knowledge can bring about social progress and development. By sharing science, more people can benefit from scientific knowledge and promote the progress and development of the society.
To this end, we have developed corresponding education programs for children, teenagers and the public to
convey
our passion for biology further and further. In this process, our experience has become richer!
Shennongjia rural support education
In July 2023, we started from Wuhan and traveled thousands of miles to the Dragon Dragon shelf, where we
started
a 21-day volunteer teaching activity focusing on popular science and biological knowledge. The late
enlightenment
of science education has always been a pain point in China's rural education. Our arrival is not only a
simple popularization
of basic knowledge and project publicity, but also like the spread of fire, burying the seeds of science "
in the hearts
of rural children. At the beginning of the course, we introduced the children about the concept and
production method of
straw feed in our project. Through pictures, videos and other ways to show the production realization
process, so that the
children more intuitive understanding of the production of straw feed. We also introduced the children to
the advantages of
this straw feed. From the environmental protection, economy, nutrition and other aspects, let the children
understand that
the use of straw feed can not only reduce the environmental pollution, but also can reduce the cost of
breeding, improve the
production efficiency of livestock. In addition, we have also produced a series of biological characteristic
courses, such as
fun experiments, animal and plant science, etc. Through the above courses and explanations, the children
have a better understanding
of our project subjects and advantages, and enhance their understanding and understanding of environmental
protection and science.
At the same time, it also stimulates their curiosity and desire to explore, and encourages them to actively
participate in
environmental protection actions and scientific inquiry activities. From the effect of the explanation, the
children have a good
acceptance of the way we introduced.
In addition, during this period, we personally experienced the difficulty of education in poor areas, so we
held a charity fundraising
activity under the background of biological science popularization. Through offline lectures, distribution
of brochures, and setting up
independent donation stalls, social donations are collected while popularizing biological knowledge.In order
to repay every caring
donor, we made a lovely cultural and creative key chain and distributed it to everyone. After the
fundraising, we donated the money to
the charitable foundation that set up the Project Hope project. Once this activity was launched, it was well
received by college students
and teachers. Everyone actively participated in it and had a deeper understanding of philanthropy and
synthetic biology.
Goal
We hope to cultivate children's scientific literacy, stimulate their curiosity and the desire to explore,
help them to better cope with
the challenges of the future, contribute our strength to aid education and broaden the public awareness of
our project.
Make biological science teaching plans
We have also written a number of popular science teaching plans for teenagers with certain biological
knowledge reserves, respectively
for the two major themes of plants and environmental protection. Popular science plants have many benefits
for children's growth. First
of all, plants are an important part of nature. The knowledge of the growth, reproduction and protection of
plants can enhance teenagers'
cognition and understanding of nature. Second, plant is an essential part of our life, understand the plant
species, characteristics and
use and the important role of plants in the ecosystem, such as oxygen supply, soil maintenance, water
circulation, biodiversity maintenance
knowledge, help to cultivate the public awareness of environmental awareness and ecological protection,
promote people's attention to the
ecological environment and protection, can help teenagers to make better use of plant resources. In
addition, popular science plants can
also stimulate their curiosity and desire to explore, and cultivate their scientific literacy and
environmental awareness. Young people are the
future of the country, and their environmental awareness and level of environmental knowledge will directly
affect the environmental quality in
the future. Through the science of environmental protection, can help young people establish scientific
environmental concept, enhance environmental
awareness, improve the level of environmental knowledge, so as to better protect our homes. Fully aware of
the harm brought by the alien invasive
species to the local ecosystem, improve the awareness of prevention, and strictly restrain the release
behavior of themselves and the people around
them. Because the teaching plan is object-oriented and has a certain understanding of biological knowledge,
the knowledge will be relatively systematic
and detailed, and the content is more cohesive.
In addition, we also made brochures and posters related to the project, on which we printed popular
science
words of biotechnology knowledge related to our project. We distributed our manuals to all participants
in
the offline events, showing our posters, hoping to disseminate advanced biological technology knowledge
to
the masses while promoting our team project. From the perspective of practical results, such design
method
is more likely to arouse the interest of teenagers. Most of the young people listened to our explanation
carefully and maintained great enthusiasm for learning these knowledge.
Goal
To help young people to enhance their awareness of ecological environment, advocate ecological
environment
values, build ecological environment culture, and improve the scientific quality of ecological
environment.
Social Media Education
In addition to basic activities, we have regularly sent tweets on the wechat official account since the
beginning of the competition, aiming to let more
people understand basic biological knowledge and improve scientific literacy. So far, we have
successfully
published 22 high-quality popular science articles.
Through text, video and other forms to display scientific knowledge, so that people more intuitive
understanding of scientific knowledge. At the same time, the
WeChat official account can also interact with readers, answer readers 'questions, and enhance readers'
sense of participation and interest. Of course, in order
to make good use of the wechat public number for popular science, we need to pay attention to the
following
points.
- Determine the audience group and the communication content. Different audiences need basic biological knowledge, so the communication content needs to be determined according to the characteristics of the audience.
- Ensure the accuracy and scientificity of the content. Basic biological knowledge is very important, so it is necessary to ensure the accuracy and scientificity of the content when popularizing science.
- Use multiple forms for transmission. In addition to text, it can also be spread through pictures, videos and other forms, making the audience more vivid and interesting.
According to the long-term practice results, we found that there are several advantages to popularize
the
basic biological knowledge through wechat public account.
- Wide dissemination range: wechat public account can cover users all over the country, so that scientific knowledge can be more widely spread.
- Rich content: WeChat public account can release a variety of content, including articles, pictures, videos, etc., to make scientific knowledge more vivid.
- Strong interactivity: wechat public account can interact with users, such as replying to comments, private messages, etc., making scientific knowledge more close to users.
- Convenient and fast: users can acquire scientific knowledge anytime and anywhere through mobile devices and other mobile phones.
