2. Summary of Our Project
The theme is Sichuan pickled cabbage in this study, our main task is filming, interviews, data collection, collation and research to the origin, value, production, use and other aspects of pickled cabbage, meanwhile we obtained the support of Cangxi county government departments, school and community, so we got a lot of materials. We tried to use our sites to reflect Sichuan pickled cabbage, to study on the relationship between the people's eating habits and the development of the productive forces in my hometown . We always adhere to the 'participation, solidarity' spirit, eventually we hope to share the unique charm of Sichuan pickled cabbage and the local conditions and customs of Sichuan with the friends all over the world through this contest, sharing our processes and happiness !
3. Our Computer and Internet Access
A. Percentage of students using the Internet at home:more than 50%
B. Number of workstations with Internet access in the classroom:2-3
C. Connection speed used in the classroom:dial-up modem
D. Number of years our classroom has been connected to the Internet:4-6
E. Additional comments concerning your computer and/or Internet access (Optional):
Our school can access the internet, there are 2 tutors and 2 students have Internet among the 6 players, the overall speed is quickly. But the school network can not be used all the time, we must surf online in the spare time.
4. Problems We Had To Overcome
1, Our surfing time is limited, we can only surf online in the computer room after school. So we make arrangements ahead of time,sorting out data in advance to improve the efficiency. Of course, we also asked the teacher to help us to do some, such as the web page making, photo processing, and works upload. 2, We are not very familiar with the web page making. We asked the teacher to teach our method of making web page, and don't hesitate to ask the teacher for advice. Sometimes we also can find the method on the Internet. 3, Activity funds is not enough. We need some expenses to interview outside, such as transportation costs, these costs can not apply to the parents, we're frugal about our living expenses, and some teachers sponsored some for us, so that we successfully completed the relevant work. 4, The time is sufficient. Because we have to learn our courses, and there are some other community activities, so the time is limited. so we make full use of the weekend.
5. Our Project Sound Bite
Through our interview, we deeply feel the pickled cabbage is just like the mountain and water in our hometown, it is like peas and carrots, so we choose the pickled cabbage as the research subject, the main purpose is to understand relationships between sauerkraut and life, also let people and the community have a deeper understanding for the pickled cabbage, in fact we have done. In the development of this project, we all understand the unity is very important, as long as we get together, many things will be successful. Although our strength is very weak, work is also very naive, we have delivered the 'participation and solidarity' to the people around. For months, to achieve our common goal, we lost a lot, but we got more!
6. How did your activities and research for this CyberFair Project support standards, required coursework and curriculum standards?
The school's teaching and students' learning is not only the 45 minutes in class, it is also including the extracurricular practice.Genuine knowledge comes from practice, which is very important. Let the students become the master of learning. This activity is the best lesson for the vocational school students.We are mostly the tourism professional students, and this kind of practice is never experienced. In the actual operation of the process, the students not only showed great enthusiasm, but also gained learning experience that had never been learned before. Under the guidance of the teacher, the first attempt to combine knowledge and extra-curricular knowledge in the classroom, especially in order to finish the web page making, the 4 students learned a variety of skills in information resource integration. Although many places are still not mature, the important is that they understand: the book knowledge can be rewritten, how to discover and create new knowledge.
