On May 31, the School of Communications and Electronic Engineering co-hosted a “June 1st Science Carnival” and a themed Science and Innovation Day with Jiading District General Primary School. The event also served as an exchange platform to promote integrated educational efforts across primary, secondary, and higher education. A total of 19 university students from the “Shuren Blue Tech Team” served as activity mentors for 57 students from grades 3 to 5, engaging them in a series of hands-on science and technology experiences.
The event began with an interactive science and technology exhibition. Vice Secretary Xu Yunfeng welcomed the visiting teachers and students and gave a detailed introduction to the day’s activities. Vice Dean Yang Chunlei inspired curiosity and excitement by engaging students in discussions about cutting-edge technologies like drones and AI. Participants experienced drone flight simulations, hands-on drone flying, and the RoboMaster AI battle experience, giving them a powerful first-hand taste of modern tech.
During the innovation practice segment, under the guidance of their mentors, the students explored AI-generated graphic design. Using pixel-based 3D modeling software, they deconstructed images into pixel blocks and recreated them using building bricks and base plates. This hands-on activity fostered their creativity, problem-solving, and innovation skills.
Throughout the sessions, students translated abstract ideas into physical creations. They brought to life the saying, “True understanding comes from doing,” as they applied what they learned in a tangible and creative way—building a solid foundation for future growth in innovation and technology.
During the school exchange, project leaders from both schools shared insights and reached a mutual understanding on furthering integrated educational development. Since 2015, the two schools have collaborated on initiatives such as the “Love and Protection” volunteer service program. This latest partnership marks a step forward in integrating classroom learning with broader social experiences, taking co-education efforts from campus into everyday life.
At the event’s conclusion, students were awarded certificates recognizing their achievements, such as “Little Craftsman of the Times,” “Creative Designer,” and “Hands-on Star.” Each student also received a Children’s Day gift. Mentors shared heartfelt messages encouraging students to keep their curiosity alive, continue exploring, and pursue their dreams in science and innovation.
The event was a successful example of inter-school collaboration, fostering creativity in young students while helping university students develop leadership and communication skills. With continued cooperation, the two schools aim to create a supportive environment for holistic talent development and contribute to nurturing a new generation of capable and well-rounded individuals.
