In the remote island city of Sansha, Hainan Province, students are logging into virtual classrooms that connect them directly to Beijing educators—over 2,600 kilometers away. 📚✨ This "cloud classroom" initiative, highlighted in China's latest government work report, is turning geographical barriers into opportunities for equal education access.
From Four-Hour Flights to Instant Screens
Yongxing School, located in Sansha—China's southernmost city—now uses real-time online classes to bring subjects like math and science to life with top-tier instructors from Beijing. 🖥️🎒 "It's like having a Beijing teacher right here," said one student. The program tackles teacher shortages while fostering cross-regional collaboration among educators.
Tech Meets Equity
The project aligns with China's push for "high-quality, well-balanced" education nationwide. With 5G and livestream tech, students on Yongxing Island discuss lessons with peers in the capital—no long-haul flights required. 💬🚀 Teachers also benefit, sharing resources and strategies through digital platforms.
As one Sansha educator noted: "This isn't just about screens—it's about building bridges." 🌉👩🏫
