On March 14th, 2018, the “Digital Experiment Training for Shanghai Primary School Nature/Science and Technology Teachers and Researchers” was jointly organized by the Shanghai Education Committee Teaching Research Office and the Shanghai Primary and Secondary School Digital Experiment System R&D Center at Shanghai Fenghua Junior High School. A total of 20 teachers from primary school natural/scientific research institutes in 16 districts in Shanghai and publishers responsible for primary school science textbooks participated in the training.
The meeting was hosted by Mr. Zhao Wei Xin, a teacher and researcher of Shanghai Primary School Nature.Feng Rong Shi,director of the Shanghai Primary and Secondary School Digital Experiment System R&D Center, special grade teacher and special grade principal, introduced the development history of the DIS R&D center and encouraged teachers to actively use the new DIS technology to apply to the experimental teaching, and also bring more ideas to the R&D center.
