Zhongke Xiguang signed an education service cooperation agreement with Airport No.1 School, comprehensively deploying its aerospace science and education sector.

Zhongke Xiguang & Airport First School

Technology empowers education, and creativity translates into tangible results. Today, under the "double reduction" policy (reducing the number of schools and reducing the number of students), the country is placing increasing emphasis on science popularization, making science education for primary and secondary school students an important supplement to traditional school education. On September 20, 2022, Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics CAS Aerospace Science and Technology Group Co.,LTD signed an education service cooperation agreement with Xi'an Airport No. 1 School in Xixian New Area, and officially entered the school on September 29 to provide a complete aerospace science popularization and education curriculum system, marking a new step forward in Zhongke Xiguang's strategic layout in the aerospace science and education industry.

On the afternoon of the 29th, the professional science popularization teaching team from CAS Xiguang officially entered the Airport No. 1 School, launching the "first lesson" in aerospace science education. The first lesson focused on stars, combining modern information teaching methods such as audio and video, mainly explaining the concepts of stars and constellations, the role of stars, and the evolution process of different stars.

In class, the teacher delivered a humorous and engaging lecture on the topic, incorporating STEAM education concepts and methods to make learning fun. Students were guided to draw "The Life Cycle of the Sun," sparking their interest and enthusiasm for exploring stars and cultivating their scientific thinking, innovative thinking, imagination, and artistic drawing skills. The children were deeply captivated by the lively and interesting lesson, eagerly sharing their thoughts and questions, fully demonstrating their curiosity about the boundless universe and their boundless desire for scientific exploration. Amidst the laughter and joy of the teacher and children, the first aerospace science popularization class at CAS Xiguang University concluded successfully.

This agreement with Airport First School represents a deep integration of CAS Xiguang's presence in the Airport New City with the local high-quality educational resources. Going forward, both parties will adhere to the principles of comprehensively deepening the implementation of quality education in schools, as well as the cooperative principles of resource sharing and complementary advantages, to jointly promote club and extracurricular activities and strive to create distinctive clubs and extracurricular programs unique to Airport First School.

Based on its own scientific system advantages, CAS Xiguang has developed a unique aerospace science and education product system, which mainly includes customized science popularization satellite development and launch, a complete set of customized aerospace science popularization and education courses, aerospace campus construction, and aerospace science and education research. With the help of its self-developed hyperspectral satellite application system, it effectively connects aerospace resources with quality education through an educational approach that combines course theory with engineering practice.

In terms of fully customized courses, Zhongke Xiguang provides configuration suggestions, teacher training programs, and continuous technical support services for school teachers of different age groups and themes through systematic curriculum design. This meets the needs of schools for upgrading their subject systems, making teaching methods more diversified, dissemination methods more innovative, and coverage more extensive. It complements and cooperates with schools to cultivate students' hands-on skills and scientific exploration spirit.

In the future, CAS Xi'an Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics will continue to rely on the advanced technical standards, profound academic advantages, top-notch research team and strong innovation capabilities of the Xi'an Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, to fully launch the layout of the aerospace science and education industry, empower education with technology, creatively transform scientific and technological achievements, build a comprehensive and integrated aerospace science and education system, enhance the educational significance and commercial value of aerospace culture, and shape a leading domestic aerospace science and education brand and a benchmark for aerospace popular science education.
