From June 27 to July 3, CFLC’s “Need for Stars” Summer Social Practice Team gave several lectures on Internet knowledge and staged a series of hands-on demonstrations featuring Internet technologies to students at the local Qianpu Elementary School. These activities were in anticipation of the upcoming China College Students “Internet Plus” Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition.

On the morning of June 28, the CFLC Social Practical Team arrived at Qianpu Elementary School to give third- and fourth-graders a talk on Internet security, the future of the Internet, and ways to prevent Internet addiction. To the amazement of the team members, the schoolchildren’s understanding of the “Internet Plus” exceeded their expectations. The schoolchildren also shared their ideas on the future of the Internet.

On the afternoon of June 29, under the theme of “Technology and Robotics”, the CFLC students introduced the existing types of robots to the schoolchildren and encouraged them to discover the robots around them.

To give the schoolchildren a better sense of the development of robotics technology, CFLC students played a video in which foreigners share their views on the development of the Internet in China, as well as “WALL-E”, an American computer-animated science fiction film. After the shows, the schoolchildren were encouraged to share their perceptions. The CFLC students also had the children draw robots and made robot models out of plasticine as an exercise to develop their innovative thinking and hands-on ability.

A good variety of fun games and knowledge contests were also held to challenge and develop the young children’s creativity, imagination and thinking skills and to facilitate comprehension of what they had learned over the past few days.
