"Science is a very advanced thing!"
"In real life, AI can bring more changes to our lives!"
"I hope to make friends with academicians, they should be able to give me a lot of advice and support."
"Creative manufacturing" is one of the most popular topics among students in the science class of Chengdu Longjiang Road Primary School Wuhou Xincheng Branch. Every time they "brainstormed", the children's eyes were wide open and their little heads were full of infinite ideas.
On May 13th, the long-awaited "Juvenile Academy of Sciences" and the 5th "New Movement, Science and Technology Future" Lexin Festival finally unveiled the mystery, and the Juvenile Academy of Sciences was officially established.
Why is there a juvenile academy in elementary school? What can students learn at the Junior Academy of Sciences? Through the links to various resources, how do teachers view the changes that are taking place in the classroom?
There are many kinds of ecological classes
"This is the microecological bottle that our group has built. Here, creatures and animals can circulate and grow together with us. Chen Xiyuan, a student in the third class of the fifth grade of the Wuhou Xincheng branch of Longjiang Road Primary School, is in a group where everyone not only has a clear division of labor, but also constantly adjusts the research objectives according to the real-time situation of the microecological bottle.
"At first, we thought the more snails we had, the better, but we found out the problem within a few days. In order to compete for limited resources, they began to fight and even kill each other. Chen Xiyuan said that from books to life, from arguments to agreement, the group members have learned to discover, ease and reconcile in continuous attempts, and scientific research needs the strength of a team.
The first batch of Longxiao Xincheng Juvenile Academy of Sciences has set up 5 research institutes of life science, technology and engineering, and 5 off-campus science and technology activity bases, and will invite academicians, vice presidents of science and technology and other experts to serve as consultants, take academician teaching, doctoral guidance, and support the growth of "little academicians" in Longxiao Xincheng through training, joint training, and project training.
At present, in the Institute of Life Sciences, special projects such as "Plant Picture Book", "Silkworm Raising", "Microecological Bottle", "Campus Plant Guide Manual" and "Plant Electronic ID Card" are being carried out.
Cultivating "little academicians" starts with scientific thinking
The Juvenile Academy of Sciences will select young researchers for all students of the school, organize scientific expeditions and scientific and technological innovation projects from time to time, and recommend students who have achieved results in their research fields to participate in various scientific and scientific and technological innovation competitions, so that the Juvenile Academy of Sciences will become a place where students' scientific dreams set sail.
"I hope to make friends with academicians, because I especially need them to have new materials to support me!" A third-year boy, Wen Yi, is a "science fan", and he said that what he is best at and loves most is "artificial intelligence".
At the scene of the school's Lexin Festival, there are special exhibition areas such as creative Lego, creative intelligent manufacturing, creative programming, microecological bottles, science fiction paintings, computer paintings, etc., and Wen Yike served as a popular science commentator, and during this week's exhibition time, he will introduce the highlights and characteristics of each science and technology project in detail for other students.
"The Juvenile Academy of Sciences also puts forward higher requirements for our teachers, especially in terms of subject integration and curriculum development, which requires us to guide students and develop their practical inquiry ability." Science teacher Zhao Chunmei said that the Juvenile Academy of Sciences can link more resources into the school and go to the students, and the establishment of the Juvenile Academy of Sciences is also an important measure for schools and communities to further communicate and integrate with each other, and create a "four-in-one" environment for children and adolescents of family, school, society and Young Pioneers.
With scientific knowledge as the carrier, ability training as the key, and scientific literacy cultivation as the core. As one of the first batch of national primary and secondary school science education experimental areas of the Ministry of Education, Wuhou District has cultivated a number of science and technology education demonstration schools with distinctive personalities, great influence and popularity, focusing on the reform of teaching curriculum, the construction of teacher teams, innovative practice activities, and the construction of scene resources. The establishment of the Juvenile Academy of Sciences in the primary school will establish a scientific education system with the connotation of innovative consciousness, innovation ability, innovative spirit and innovative personality cultivation with the help of high-quality resources such as Sichuan University and Chengdu Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the region.
