Experiencing Scientific Achievements and Feeling the Charm of Science - Some Teachers and Students from Our School Conducted Research and Study Activities at the Wuhan Science and Technology Museum

Summary： On May 9th, over 190 teachers, students, and parents from our school's elementary and junior high schools participated in a research and study visit to the Wuhan Science and Technology Museum, themed "Experiencing Scientific Achievements and Feeling the Charm of Science".

To broaden students' horizons, stimulate their interest in learning science and technology, and encourage them to love and learn science from a young age, on May 9th, our school organized over 190 teachers, students, and parents from the elementary and junior high school departments to visit the Wuhan Science and Technology Museum for a research and study tour themed "Experiencing Scientific Achievements and Feeling the Charm of Science."

 

   The Wuhan Science and Technology Museum stands on the bustling banks of the Yangtze River in Wuhan. Inside, there is a wealth of wondrous and interesting scientific knowledge waiting for us to explore and experience. With curious and excited hearts, the students entered the museum in an orderly manner. As soon as they entered, they saw a giant spiral-shaped colorful light, emitting a dazzling array of colors. The students, like a flock of chattering birds, gathered in small groups, heading towards their favorite exhibition halls.

The Wuhan Science and Technology Museum has dozens of exhibition halls, including Sound and Light, Exploration and Discovery, Human and Health, and Earth and Universe. The exhibits are dazzling, and many models can be operated by hand.

       The students first entered the Transportation Exhibition Hall. Inside, through pictures, multimedia, projections, models, and electromechanical interactions, the hall showcased the evolution of land, water, and air transportation, the scientific knowledge behind it, and its impact on the development of human society. Then, the students went to the Universe Exhibition Hall, where the exhibits described humanity's journey of exploring the universe and the achievements of contemporary aerospace technology.

      Next, they visited the Water Exhibition Hall, where they learned about the physical environment provided by water for the evolution of life, how water has changed the way life functions, and the importance of water to organisms on Earth.

Finally, they visited the Life Exhibition Hall, where they learned about the origin and evolution of life and the achievements of modern biotechnology.

 

Every corner of the exhibition halls was filled with the happy smiles, joyful figures, and cheerful conversations of the children. The seeds of science were unknowingly sown in their hearts.

The visit to the Science and Technology Museum provided a vivid and profound science lesson for every student and parent, allowing them to truly understand the meaning of science and technology and fully stimulating their scientific enthusiasm. On the way back, everyone was still feeling exhilarated. This research and study tour not only improved the students' scientific literacy but also broadened their thinking, encouraging them to approach their future studies and lives with an innovative spirit, to discover and explore more truths, and to achieve better results.
