1. Description of Our Community
Fucheng Senior High School is located in the Fengshan District of Kaohsiung City, adjacent to the Qianzhen River Waterfront Trail and right next to Exit 2 of the MRT Qianzhen Senior High School Station, offering excellent accessibility. To ensure student safety, the school has established a dedicated promote learningpedestrian path. The surrounding area is highly developed with comprehensive amenities where a KFC stands directly opposite the school, and the neighborhood is lined with restaurants, clothing stores, hotels, and night markets, satisfying all the needs of 'food, clothing, housing, and transportation.' As these functions evolve, the Wujia area has seen a steady population increase, becoming a vibrant emerging hub in Kaohsiung.
2. Summary of Our Project
This project aims to build a website through the Cyberfair activity to introduce Kaohsiung, a city that blends modernity with tradition, and embeded nature with humanity. Our theme is 'Deep Rooting in Fengshan.' As the most populous district in Kaohsiung, Fengshan possesses the dual characteristics of a historic old town and a modern metropolis.
The 'Deep cultivation Fengshan' initiative focuses on cultural preservation, community cohesion, and sustainable development:
Cultural Preservation: By maintaining assets like the Fengshan Old City and Fongyi Academy, we promote local education and guided tours to foster a sense of identity among residents.
Community Engagement: Through community building, markets, and arts activities, we encourage social interaction and develop local cuisine, night markets, and crafts to form a unique 'Fengshan Brand.'
Urban Improvement: We aim to improve transportation, public facilities, and environmental sustainability to enhance the quality of life.
Our future goal is to connect historical sites, temples, and cultural heritages into planned tourist routes, creating an exemplary livable community that balances culture, lifestyle, and economy.
3. Our Computer and Internet Access

B. Number of workstations with Internet access in the classroom:more than 6
C. Connection speed used in the classroom:dedicated connection
D. Number of years our classroom has been connected to the Internet:more than 6
4. Problems We Had To Overcome
1.Data Filtering and Organization: Given the vast amount of information about Kaohsiung, we utilized official data and conducted field research to ensure the content was accurate and representative. 2.Web Development Challenges: Initially unfamiliar with web design, we mastered the necessary skills through self-learning and guidance from our teachers, successfully building a user-friendly platform. 3.Time Management and Division of Labor: Balancing academics with the project was tough. We improved efficiency through clear task allocation and regular discussions. 4.Team Collaboration and Communication: Since team members had different perspectives on Kaohsiung, we overcame internal differences through frequent communication and coordination. 5.Promotion and Outreach: We utilized school social media and word-of-mouth marketing to increase the website's exposure and attract more attention.
5. Our Project Sound Bite
Our goal is to gain a better understanding of Fengshan. By honing our collaborative skills and mastering web development, we aim to foster a stronger connection with our local community.
6. How did your activities and research for this CyberFair Project support standards, required coursework and curriculum standards?
This research project explores the cultural landscape of Fengshan through an interdisciplinary framework, leveraging information technology to enhance data processing, collaborative research, and presentation efficiency. By integrating various academic domains, we have bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. The project’s execution relied on the synthesis of several key disciplines: Technological Integration: We utilized AI-assisted organization, web design applications, and multimedia editing software to streamline information architecture. Analytical Frameworks: Mathematics provided the logical structure for our research, while Social Studies facilitated spatial analysis of the Kaohsiung Metro and Light Rail systems alongside historical documentation. Communication & Aesthetics: Language Arts and Humanities guided our briefings, English oral communication, and the aesthetic layout of our digital findings. Central to this project was the transition from classroom learning to authentic inquiry. Our methodology included: Direct Observation: Conducting field visits to analyze local environmental and urban development. Stakeholder Interviews: Engaging in formal dialogue with local residents and the Executive Director of the Weiwuying National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts. Collaborative Synthesis: Iterative discussions and data revision based on primary source materials collected during site visits. This project demonstrates that integrating Information Technology with traditional curricula fosters advanced problem-solving skills and environmental awareness. By documenting Fengshan’s evolution, we have not only deepened our academic understanding but also cultivated a spirit of collaboration, successfully embedding rigorous learning into real-world contexts.
