Our Story

WIST delivered outstanding results at the 9th Project Contest, an international academic competition hosted by UK universities, securing 1st place in the Social Science category and 2nd place in the STEM category, along with scholarship recognition in the final round. These achievements highlight students’ academic excellence and strong global competitiveness.

WIST於「第九屆英國大學專題競賽（9th Project Contest）」中表現亮眼，一舉拿下 Social Science 組冠軍與 STEM 組第二名，並於決賽階段獲頒獎學金肯定，充分展現學生卓越的學術實力與國際競爭力。

Gabriel, who won first place in the Social Science category, focused his research on aging societies. He proposed an innovative integrated model combining nursing homes and kindergartens, promoting intergenerational interaction to reduce loneliness among the elderly while enhancing children’s emotional development. Gabriel shared that his idea was inspired by observing the living conditions of elderly family members, and he hopes to advocate for more human-centered long-term care policies to improve overall social well-being.

在 Social Science 組榮獲冠軍的 Gabriel 同學，以高齡化社會為研究核心，提出結合養老院與幼兒園的創新共融模式。透過跨世代互動，不僅能降低長者孤獨感，也能促進幼童情感發展。Gabriel 表示，此構想源自於對家中長者生活的觀察，期望透過政策倡議，推動更完善且具人本關懷的長期照護制度，進一步提升整體社會福祉。 

In the STEM category, a team consisting of Jason, Winfred, and Wesley earned second place for their impressive performance. Their project explored the application of artificial intelligence in education, conducting an experimental study with fifth-grade students to compare robot-assisted teaching and traditional teaching methods in English-based science learning. Despite challenges such as low student engagement and technical operation issues, the team successfully improved learning motivation and experimental quality by implementing incentive mechanisms and optimizing instructional design. Their work received high praise from the judges, who remarked, “You’re the future data scientist!”

在 STEM 組方面，由 Jason、Winfred 與 Wesley 組成的團隊同樣表現優異，榮獲第二名佳績。團隊聚焦人工智慧於教育現場的應用，以國小五年級學生為研究對象，進行自然科英語教學實驗，比較機器人輔助教學與傳統教學的學習成效。面對學生參與度不足與設備操作等挑戰，團隊透過設計獎勵機制與優化教學流程，有效提升學習動機與實驗品質，獲得評審高度肯定，並以「You’re the future data scientist!」讚許其發展潛力。
