Inclusion: The old, elderly women, and us

Our project was developed to help the old and people of all ages should benefit. We used a previous unappreciated approach to facilitate education to the old and made different formats of materials. We test and confirmed our approach was effective. Throughout our project, all areas of experts were consult interviewed.


The old

For an extended period, the old, mostly female individuals of the older generation are a long-neglected social community whose health problems are ignored due to the lack of knowledge and traditional social roles. So, we emphasized the whole-life education of the old and paid attention to their feelings.

Not only does education helps the senior to gain a higher level of happiness, but also it helps stabilize the whole society. And thus, we developed a previously unexplored education approach that takes care of both the old’s emotional needs and physical health. We tried to inform the younger generation and to instruct them on educating their grandparents.

Instructing high school students
Figure 1. We instructed several high school students on informing their grandparents of the correct way to wash their hands.

Compared with traditional education strategies, our approach offers emotional support from the younger generation and is more comfortable for the old. In many Asian countries where the bond between grandparents and grandkids is incredibly tight, our approach is undoubtedly significant.

We also wrote a textbook for the young and explained how to impart the older generation knowledge. We hoped that we could make the world a better place for the unique, large, and essential social community through our hard work.

Elderly women

Since post-menopausal women are more likely to suffer osteoporosis, we paid more attention to them. Chinese women favor traditional art crosstalk, so we combined interesting art with basic synthetic biology knowledge. When we went to the nursing house to visit the elderly, we performed it for them, and they all laughed and enjoyed our performance.

Another thing we did is to promote a traditional Chinese sport-Mu'lan'quan to them. Many older women liked the sport because it is both elegant and healthy.The movements of mu'lan'quan combine dancing and Kungfu and is preferred by many females. It is convenient to practice it-anybody can do it with a fan. We hoped that we could help the elderly women to strengthen their health and prevent osteoporosis.
