Small villages usually have dozens or a hundred households.
Villages like Qianjia Village are not small towns, but medium-sized villages, and there is a town nearby.
There are at least six hundred households in the village alone.
Based on the current average of about 3.3 people per household in the countryside, the number of people is nearly two thousand!

###Continuation and Challenges of Education
Under Xu's promotion, projects such as the "Dream Mentor Program" and "Parent-Child Learning" have achieved remarkable results, but the road to educational equity is still long. As the project progresses, some new problems gradually emerge, which not only test Xu's wisdom, but also make him realize that true educational equity requires deeper changes.
####New problem: rebalancing resource allocation
Although the "three-in-one" education model has achieved initial results, in actual operation, the uneven distribution of resources is still a difficult problem to solve. For example, in some remote mountainous areas, although there is the support of "mobile classrooms", due to limited teaching staff, teachers often need to teach students of multiple grades at the same time, and the teaching quality is difficult to guarantee. In addition, some parents still do not attach enough importance to education, believing that whether their children study or not does not affect the survival of the family, which suppresses the learning enthusiasm of many children.
Xuoho knew that to completely solve these problems, we must start from the root. He began to think about how to further optimize the resource allocation mechanism and at the same time raise parents' awareness of the importance of education through various means.
####Innovative attempt: Establishment of community education center
In order to solve the problem of insufficient teachers and scattered educational resources, Xuoho decided to set up "community education centers" in each township. These centers are not only places for children to learn, but also places for parents to receive training. The centers are equipped with modern teaching equipment and regularly invite volunteers and experts to give lectures. In addition, the centers also have psychological counseling rooms to provide help for children with heavy psychological burdens.
Xiaofang is one of the first beneficiaries. Since her mother attended the center's parent training course, she has been more supportive of Xiaofang. Her mother not only learned how to help Xiaofang with her homework, but also took the initiative to participate in various activities at school, which made Xiaofang very proud. And Ajie also made many like-minded friends in the center's painting class, and his works began to go out of school and be appreciated by more people.
####The role of parents: from spectator to participant
In order to get more parents involved, Xuoho designed a series of incentives. For example, children of families who actively participate in parent training courses will be given priority to receive scholarships or grants. This policy has greatly increased the enthusiasm of parents, and many parents who were originally on the sidelines about education have signed up for training.
At a parents' meeting, a father said excitedly: "I used to think that as long as my children were well fed and well clothed, that was enough. Now I know that education is the most important guarantee for their future." This change in concept made Xuoho feel very gratified. He understood that only when parents truly realize the importance of education can their children grow better.
####The power of technology: a bridge across time and space
In order to further narrow the gap between urban and rural education, Xuoho continued to promote the application of technology. He worked with a number of technology companies to develop a "virtual teacher system" based on artificial intelligence. This system can answer students' questions in real time through voice recognition and image processing technology, and adjust teaching content based on students' feedback. Even in the most remote mountainous areas, children can access high-quality educational resources through this system.
However, the application of technology is not without challenges. In some areas, due to low literacy levels, many parents and teachers are not very receptive to new technologies. To this end, Xuoho organized a series of technical training activities to teach everyone how to use these devices. He also emphasized that technology is only an auxiliary tool, and it is the interaction between people that really determines the quality of education.
####Social cooperation: a shared responsibility
As the project continued to expand, Xu realized that the efforts of an individual or a few parties alone were far from enough. He began to seek more social cooperation, hoping to achieve the goal of educational equity through multi-party collaboration.
A large enterprise offered to sponsor the "Dream Mentor Program" and sent employees to serve as part-time mentors. These mentors not only brought rich industry experience, but also provided more career options for the children. One mentor said when communicating with the students: "I hope you know that no matter what your background is, as long as you work hard, everyone has the opportunity to realize their dreams."
In addition, some international organizations have also joined Xuoho's cause. They not only provided financial support, but also brought advanced educational concepts and methods. For example, an education expert from the UK, after inspecting several rural schools, proposed a new teaching evaluation system that can more accurately reflect students' learning outcomes and potential.
####Challenges and persistence: Never forget your original intention
Despite the many achievements, Xu knows that the road to educational equity is still full of challenges. Especially in some extremely poor areas, many projects are difficult to implement due to the harsh geographical environment and inconvenient transportation. To this end, he constantly tries new solutions and strives to break through existing limitations.
For example, in response to the problem of poor network signals in mountainous schools, Xuoho worked with several technology companies to develop a teaching system based on satellite communications. This system can transmit high-quality educational resources to any place in need via artificial satellites, no matter how complex the terrain or how far the distance.
At the same time, he also proposed a concept of "mobile classroom". That is, using modified buses as mobile classrooms, carrying various teaching equipment and books and materials, and regularly going to areas where it is impossible to build fixed campuses. This method is flexible and efficient, can cover a large number of people in a short period of time, and greatly improves the accessibility of educational services.
####The power of universal participation
In the process of promoting various plans, Xuoho always emphasizes the importance of universal participation. He believes that only when everyone realizes the significance of educational equity and is willing to take action for it can this goal be truly achieved.
In order to inspire more people's enthusiasm, Xuoho launched a public welfare activity called "Light up the Future". The activity calls on people from all walks of life to donate unused items, such as books, stationery, clothes, etc., to support children in poor areas. At the same time, participants can also record their good deeds through the online platform and invite friends to join in, forming a virtuous cycle effect.
This event received an unprecedented response. In just one month, tens of thousands of people participated in it and raised materials worth millions of yuan. More importantly, this spontaneous behavior made many people realize their social responsibility again and injected a steady stream of motivation into the cause of educational equity.
####Looking forward to tomorrow: jointly writing a new chapter in education
Standing at the forefront of education reform, Xuoho is full of confidence in the future. He believes that as long as we stick to our original aspirations and pool our strength, we will be able to break down the barriers of region, economy and social status, so that every child will have equal opportunities to receive education.
"Education is a great cause. It concerns the dreams of every child and the future of the entire society," Xu said in a speech. "Let us work together to light up the future of every child with love and responsibility."
In this new era full of hope, Xuoho and his team will continue to move forward and interpret the true meaning of educational equity with actions. They know that the road ahead may still be long and difficult, but precisely because of this, every step of effort is precious.
####In-depth exploration: more possibilities for education
In the process of promoting the "Community Education Center" and "Virtual Teacher System", Xuoho gradually discovered that relying solely on the existing model may not fully meet the needs of children in different regions. Some children need more personalized education programs because of their special family background or personal interests. For this reason, he proposed a "Personalized Growth Plan" to tailor a learning path for each child.
Xiaofang is one of the first beneficiaries of this program. Her tutor designed a program based on her specific situation to help her improve her academic performance and reduce her psychological burden. For example, some relaxing and interesting activities such as handicrafts and music appreciation were added to her daily study tasks, which allowed her to relax after intense study. At the same time, the tutor also encouraged her to participate in the school's speech competition to enhance her self-confidence by practicing her expression skills.
Ajie found his future direction in the "Personalized Growth Plan". His mentor found that in addition to his talent for painting, Ajie also had a strong interest in architectural design. Therefore, the mentor arranged a series of architecture-related courses for him and took him to visit local construction sites and design studios. These experiences made Ajie full of expectations for the future, and he began to seriously consider whether to apply for an architecture university in the future.
####Family support: an indispensable force
In order to further consolidate the educational achievements, Xuoho paid special attention to the supportive role of the family. He realized that only when the family, school and society form a joint force can the goal of educational equity be truly achieved. Therefore, he launched an activity called "Family Growth Partner" to invite parents to participate in their children's daily learning.
The specific contents of this activity include: weekly homework tutoring time, monthly family reading club and quarterly family travel day. Through these activities, parents can not only better understand their children's learning situation, but also enhance parent-child relationship and provide more support for their children's growth.
A mother said with emotion after attending several family reading groups: "I used to think that accompanying my children to read was a hassle, but now I realize that this is actually the best time between us." This change in concept made Xu Oho feel very gratified. He knows that only when parents are truly involved in their children's education can better results be achieved.
####Integration of social resources: a win-win situation for all parties
As the project progressed, Xu began to try to integrate more social resources. He reached cooperation agreements with a number of companies, with the companies providing internship opportunities and technical support, while the project was responsible for training students with potential. This win-win cooperation model was widely welcomed.
For example, a well-known technology company provides summer internship opportunities for students participating in the "Dream Mentor Program". Students can learn knowledge that cannot be learned from books in a real workplace environment, and at the same time, they can understand their career development direction in advance. After completing the internship, an intern said: "This experience made me understand the gap between theory and practice, and also made me more determined to achieve my goals."
In addition, some cultural institutions have offered to provide art education resources for the project. They have organized a series of art exhibitions and lectures to give students the opportunity to be exposed to a higher level of cultural influence. After visiting an exhibition, a girl from the mountainous area said excitedly: "It turns out that art can be so beautiful. I hope to create such works one day."
####Continuous improvement: never-ending steps
Despite the many achievements, Xuoho has never stopped improving and perfecting the project. He knows that educational equity is a long and arduous task, and it is necessary to constantly adjust strategies to adapt to new challenges.
To this end, he established a complete feedback mechanism to regularly collect opinions and suggestions from students, parents and teachers. These feedbacks not only help him find problems in a timely manner, but also provide important references for subsequent improvements. For example, some parents reported that the content of some courses was too abstract, making it difficult for their children to understand. In response to this problem, Xuoho immediately organized a team to redesign the relevant courses, adding more examples and interactive sessions to make the courses more vivid and interesting.
At the same time, he also strengthened the training of volunteers and tutors. By regularly holding professional skills improvement classes and experience sharing sessions, he ensured that every participant could devote themselves to their work in the best condition. After participating in the training, a new tutor said: "This training has taught me a lot of practical methods. I believe I can help more children."
####Looking to the future: a common dream
Standing at a new starting point, Xu is full of expectations for the future. He plans to promote the "Dream Fund" and "Dream Mentor Program" to all poor areas in the country in the next five years, and gradually expand its international influence. At the same time, he also intends to develop a comprehensive evaluation system to measure changes in educational equity in different regions so as to adjust strategies in a timely manner.
"Educational equity is not just about giving children the same resources, but more importantly, it is about making them believe that they can change their destiny," Xu said in an interview. "I hope that through our efforts, every child will have the right to pursue their dreams."
In this new era full of hope, Xuoho and his team are moving towards the future with more determined steps. They believe that as long as they persevere, they will be able to let every child have a wonderful life of their own.
