Project Element

What information tools & technologies did you used to complete your CyberFair project?

Online Resources are popular nowadays, the most common way to do research is to “ask Google”. However, some resources are not reliable, so the team decided to interview Dr. Wang to get accurate and straightforward information. In addition, the team also designed a survey related to the theme, which was sent to school teachers, students and parents, from the data we could understand the fillers' understanding of mountain rescuing.

 

In what ways did your students act as "ambassadors" and spokespersons for your CyberFair project both on-line and in person?

In order to complete the research, the students conducted an oral interview with Dr. Wang. Most of the students knew Dr. Wang through his companion of the school’s elite program. Therefore, the students started by scheduling a meeting when Dr. Wang came to our school to lecture. One afternoon, the students acted as ambassadors and represented the school to conduct the interview. Through the interview, Dr. Wang shared his personal experiences and stories, which was valuable to the students for their research and website. Dr. Wang shared his motivation and reason for participating in the mountain medical industry. Dr. Wang was impressed by the outstanding performances and well-prepared questions the students came up with because his son is also the same age as most of the team members. Therefore, Dr. Wang was fascinated by the team and was willing to share more information and anecdotes for our research.

What has been or will be the impact of your project on your community?

There are several impacts of our project on not just our community but the society. Our CyberFair project teaches people about basic hiking information, we also try to use this opportunity to make propaganda of the information to a country-wide level. During a short period of time, I do not think our project will make a difference. However, through time, I do think the information we collect could benefit the safety of hikers. Student’s parents have seen the web page and thought the web visual design was advanced. A parent stated that the web delivered new knowledge to her, now she knows more about hiking. Therefore, knowing there are PACs on the mountain, she is no longer scared of climbing a high altitude mountain. Kang Chiao students have climbed at least one mountain that is 3000m above sea level, but they still learned a lot after reading through the website and watching the vocal interviewing video. A student said that he did not know Dr. Wang is such an important character in Taiwan mountain medical industry, he finally understands why the mountain guide measured students’ oxygen level while they were hiking. In addition, we received positive feedback from students, teachers, and parents. Thanks to CyberFair, it gives us an opportunity to share more knowledge with people.

How did your project involve other members of your community as helpers and volunteers?

Throughout the process, we received a lot of help from school teachers and Dr. Wang. They gave the team beneficial suggestions. For instance, the students didn’t know how to set up a website. Therefore, the school’s computer teacher walks the student step by step through the process of setting up the website. He was patient and helped the team solve multiple issues. Helping the team to finish the project in time and resolve any possible problems. In addition, we thank Dr. Wang for his help. Dr. Wang is a busy doctor, he has his own clinic to run. However, he managed to find time and accepted our interview. Throughout the interview, he answered our questions, taught us knowledge of how to be safe while climbing mountains. These knowledge can also benefit the people who visit our website, which we hope to help reduce the number of mountain climbing injuries.
