Our education activities included posting posters and rolling banners, creating the team’s WeChat Official Account, designing an original game, editing a song, giving a mini-lecture for younger-age kids and we also set up an online shop to sell our derivative for promotion as well as fundraising.
Below is the mindmap of the whole education activities:

We designed some posters, including the introduction of our team, sales promotion of our peripheral products, the introdction of antibacterial peptide and its application. They were published on several social media platforms, like instagram and little red book, respectively.

After that, we also made a rolling banner to advertise in the square and elevator entrance of a office building to attract more people to pay attention to our project and our team.

We also set up a WeChat Official Account as an important communication channel with the public in China. So far we published a total of 8 articles. Each article is aimed at different topics.
Our first articles introduced our research topic, team name, and logo. After that, we published some articles on the introduction of antibacterial peptides, the use of antibiotics, and how the work of antibacterial peptides compares with antibiotics et al. We would like to lead our followers to understand our project and gather more knowledge about antibacterial peptide gradually. We also wish the public could feel the charm of synthetic biology and pay more attention to it.
Regarding the impact, some of these articles had been read by more than 500 people. There are more and more followers, now our WeChat Official Account has 400+ followers.

In order to promote synthetic biology and our antibacterial peptide, “Pepsick”, our team developed a puzzle and interesting game called "My Biological Warfare Team". Players can arrange their own biological fleets in the process of playing, and learn biological knowledge from them.

Two group strategy maps, whiteboard, 50 questions, two answer bells.

Two sides: Red country and Blue country.
Victory goal: Deploy your own biological fleet map. Get the right to attack by answering the questions correctly and destroy the enemy's fleet.
Fleet deployment: Both sides deploy their biological fleets on their own square map of 11*11. There are seven warships in each team: pep, bio, anti, synth, piscis, pepsick, medicine. All warships will be deployed in the battle map. Each warship can only be arranged horizontally and vertically. Each letter corresponds to a grid. Each grid can only have one letter.

Answer rule: Both sides have their own rings. The side who presses the bell first gets the right to answer the question. The host will give questions. Players think of the answer, press the bell. If one side answers correctly, the side can get the right to attack. If the answer is wrong, the game continues. Group communication can be carried out during thinking. If one side gets the right to answer the question and the other party answers first, the score will be counted as the party with the right to answer the question. Different questions indicate different attack times.
Attack rule: There will be blank strategic maps of both sides on the whiteboard. When attacking, the attacker can choose the grid coordinates of the opponent he wants to attack, such as (B, 8). If the warship of the other side is attacked, the host will draw an "X" on the blank map of the other side. If there is no attack, the host will draw "O". If you get an "X", this warship is regarded as "destroyed".

We want to express from this song that despite the numerous difficulties during the competition, such as the failure of experiments, the many documents to be changed, and the problems with the logic found after writing the business plan, we did not get discouraged, but faced these problems bravely and cooperated. We firmly believe that as long as we don't give up, we will always solve the problem together and win the final victory together.
Below are the lyrics of the Pepsick Song

We decided to conduct a mini-lecture for those younger kids to teach them about antibiotics and antimicrobial peptides. In order to invite more kids with their parents surely to attend our lecture, we posted a poster online and finally we had

As the target audience is young kids, we used a very cute PPT template and added a lot of animated characters to make the lecture more interesting. In order to win their favor and make the whole process more engaging, we added a Quiz With Award session at the end of the lecture, and this did work in that kids were active participants in answering questions. We were very happy about that and our lecture was very successful. This was also a rare experience for us as little teachers.

①　Mini Lecture Recording

We edited a video about our mini-lecture recording and posted it on Little Red Book in order to ppread the impact that we hope more people can gain these knowledge through our video.

②　Animation Video

We also edited another video by taking Peppa Pig as the main animation charactor to further introduce our project and our goal. It could attract more people to follow us and pay attention to our project.

In order to communicate with the public, our dry lab designed some merchandise with our logo and started a fundraising activity at MTOWN shopping square, in the meantime, we could talk to the public directly for promoting our topic and our project.
