Qingdao News, December 1st (By reporter Han Ruyi) — From November 27th to 28th, 2025, the Qingdao Science and Technology Museum brought its "Science Festival on Campus" event to Longshan Central Primary School and Jinkoudianji Primary School in Jimo District. The event delivered a rich feast of science to over 1,800 students from the two schools, sparking a passion for scientific exploration and innovation on the early winter campus.
To ensure the event precisely met the students' interests and thirst for knowledge, the Qingdao Science and Technology Museum conducted thorough research and meticulous planning beforehand. The activities were designed to be interactive, entertaining, and educational, aiming to stimulate the curiosity and imagination of young people through hands-on experiences.
The atmosphere at the event was vibrant, with various science popularization activities set up in different zones, captivating every student. In the "Mobile Exhibit Experience Zone," students gained an intuitive understanding of basic physics principles and scientific phenomena through hands-on operation. At the "3D Science Exhibition," children, wearing special glasses, marveled at the magic and mysteries of the three-dimensional world. An endearingly clumsy yet highly capable "robot dog" became the center of attention as soon as it appeared, with its agile interactive performance drawing waves of cheers and allowing the children to experience the charm of artificial intelligence amidst laughter.
The "Science Show Performance" brought the event to its climax. A series of fascinating chemistry and physics experiments created a dreamy and fantastical visual spectacle. The presenter explained the scientific principles behind the phenomena in an accessible way, earning gasps of amazement and continuous applause from the audience. During the hands-on workshop session, guided by science popularization experts, students built their own "Police" rubber-band-powered airplanes and solar-powered lunar rovers. From assembling parts to final adjustments, the children not only improved their manual skills but also learned about scientific concepts like elastic potential energy and solar energy conversion. The joy and pride were evident on everyone's face as their handmade airplanes soared into the sky and the lunar rovers started moving under the sunlight.
This "Science Festival on Campus" event broke the boundaries of the traditional classroom, sowing the seeds of science in the young minds of these rural children. The activities not only broadened the students' horizons and allowed them to experience the infinite charm of technology up close but also subtly cultivated their scientific thinking, innovative spirit, and practical skills.
