#Tech Meets Her # After the launch of the initiative
We received nearly 200+
6-12 year old girls are curious about science
Very many of these children are from the countryside
Among them, there is a special group of children
They asked scientists questions in the form of poetry
✦
Poetry from is light
Why

Scientists
I have a lot of questions I want to ask you
Like what:
Why is the earth round, but not square?
Why is the sun far away from us, but the light is very big?
Why are plants in the wild more vigorous than houseplants?
When you're done answering,
I still have a lot of questions.
(Shiguang Teacher: Yu Hui)

Introduction of guests
Siyi Zhou
Postdoctoral fellow in theoretical physics after the 90s
Zhou Siyi is a postdoctoral researcher in theoretical physics after the 90s, whose research directions cover cosmology, field theory, and string theory, and is praised by everyone as a "genius girl in physics". Excellent, she not only has made achievements in academics, but also is willing to publish popular science videos on social platforms, and her difficult and obscure knowledge of physics has become more understandable under her interpretation. She wrote in her own popular science introduction, "I like to tell children interesting physics knowledge, especially to very cute little girls."
On tomorrow's Quantum Day, she will share her background and discuss the knowledge of quantum physics with everyone.
Kang Yu
The non-profit organization is the founder of Light Poetry
Kang Yu is the founder of the non-profit organization "Is Light Poetry", and after graduating from the School of Economics of Chinese Min University, he taught for two years. And in 2018, together with Zhang Tiantian, he founded this poetry public welfare organization.
In the form of poetry, it solves the social problem of rural children's lack of emotional expression and spiritual attention.
Is the introduction of the Light Poetry Project
"Is the light poetry", Kunming Chenggong District is the light four seasons poetry youth service center (referred to as "light poetry"), the first and largest rural poetry education public welfare organization in China. The slogan of "poetry of light": children who can write poetry do not smash glass. Since October 2016, we have been serving rural left-behind children, providing systematic poetry curriculum toolkits and training for local teachers in grades 3 to 8, addressing the lack of emotional expression channels and spiritual concerns of rural children. As of September 2021, "Poetry of Light" has served more than 1,200 rural primary and secondary schools in 27 provinces including Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi and Henan, allowing 110,000 children to have their first poetry lessons in life. These children are the children of "light.".
