Campus Weather Station: A Bridge Connecting Students, Campus and Society

The Campus Weather Station is an extremely valuable educational platform.

Firstly, in terms of its impact on students, it holds significant educational meaning. It is of great importance to popularize meteorological science in primary schools, and the Campus Weather Station undertakes this crucial mission. It can provide curious primary school students with a way to explore the mysteries of meteorology, presenting complex and mysterious meteorological knowledge in an intuitive form. Through observing and understanding various instruments in the weather station, such as thermometers, rain gauges, anemometers, etc., children can figure out how the temperature changes, how rain is measured, and how the wind speed is known, making abstract knowledge concrete and perceptible, thus getting to know meteorological knowledge. This way of learning through personal experience can greatly stimulate children's enthusiasm for science, especially meteorological science, and perhaps plant the seeds of becoming meteorologists or scientists in their young minds.

Secondly, in a broader sense, the Campus Weather Station has a positive effect on the whole campus and society. On campus, it can serve as a distinctive educational resource, enriching the school's curriculum system. Teachers can carry out a variety of rich and colorful science courses, practical activities, interest groups, etc. around the weather station to cultivate students' observational ability, practical ability, and scientific thinking.

For society, the existence of the Campus Weather Station is a frontier position for meteorological popularization. After learning meteorological knowledge, students can pass on this knowledge to their parents and people around them, thereby improving the whole society's awareness level of meteorology and making more people understand the important significance that meteorology is related to people's safety, social prosperity, as well as the sound development of production and ecology. Moreover, the meteorological data accumulated over a long period can also, to a certain extent, provide some supplementary materials for local meteorological research, further demonstrating its value.
