"holding hands, let's build a safe dream together!" in the studio decorated like a classroom, parents and students put their hands above their heads, made a heart shape in front of their chests, and said out loud the theme of the show with the host.

the autumn breeze brings coolness and the summer heat gradually dissipates. the new school year of 2024 is approaching. the emergency brand event for primary and secondary school students in beijing is jointly sponsored by beijing emergency management bureau, beijing municipal education commission, beijing municipal public security bureau, beijing fire rescue corps, beijing radio and television station and other departments and units.the program "the first lesson of public safety at the start of school" was broadcast at 20:00 on august 31 on beijing radio and television and new media platforms such as the "beijing emergency" weibo.

on august 12, the sixth recording of the "first lesson of public safety" program was launched. the relevant person in charge of the organizer,more than 100 people including primary and secondary school teachers and students, parents and media reporters participated in the recording of the program. the program was divided into four sections: traffic safety, fire safety, outdoor safety and growing towards the sun.

data from the public security traffic management department show that traffic accidents have become one of the main causes of casualties among primary and secondary school students in my country, and are the "number one killer" of student deaths. the beijing emergency office's analysis shows that the blind spots of truck drivers pose a serious threat to pedestrian safety. based on this, the program team filmed a short video of the blind spot experiment of bus and car drivers in advance. in the video, after setting up cones in the blind spots of the vehicles, the students got on the vehicles to experience the driver's perspective, and then professionals explained the dangers of entering the blind spots.

"it turns out that there is a blind spot for car drivers. i must pay special attention when crossing the road next time." zhou chuyu, a student from beijing school in tongzhou district, said after watching a short film on the driver's blind spot experiment.

before deciding on the theme of the fire safety section, the program team conducted questionnaire surveys, online research and field visits, and found that primary and secondary school students generally pay more attention to the evacuation of crowded places. for this reason, the program team planned and filmed a "reality show" short film of the escape drill.

the drill took place in a shopping mall. as the fire alarm sounded, several students turned into "little runners" and ran along the evacuation passage toward the exit. the camera followed one of the students as he ran toward the exit, but he was troubled by the two identical fire doors in the evacuation passage. after a little hesitation, he opened and entered the right fire door, but found it was a dead end, so he had to go back and push open the left fire door to move forward again.

"students, when escaping, you must push open the fire door with your hands." in the video, fire experts commented on the performance of the students participating in the drill and explained the knowledge and skills of evacuation.

lu xiaonan, director of the news channel center of beijing radio and television station, introduced that this year's program has set up a series of experiments and experience links, including "open door killing" scenario simulation, electric bicycle battery overcharging fire experiment, outdoor lightning protection field teaching, etc., focusing on the three areas of traffic safety, fire safety, and outdoor safety, to impart safety knowledge to students and parents.

the program "the first lesson of public safety at the beginning of school" has always focused on adolescent mental health and family education. this year, the program played the "heartfelt words" of children and parents in 20 families, trying to let children and parents strengthen communication through empathy. the program also carried out the "you say, i draw" psychological interactive game. professor zhang shuang of the school of education of capital normal university guided the audience to discuss whether children should be supervised when they go online and how parents should communicate with their children. the audience raised their hands and spoke, and the interactive atmosphere was warm. finally, zhang shuang gave everyone practical educational suggestions.

in order to test whether everyone knows how to use a fire extinguisher, the host invited two parents to the stage to demonstrate with a simulation device. during the demonstration, the "flame" shot up into the sky. the two parents fumbled with the fire extinguisher before opening it, and then aimed at the top and middle of the "flame" and sprayed it, but the "flame" could not be extinguished. at the end of the demonstration, the expert explained to the audience the mistakes made by the two parents in the fire-fighting process and the key points of using a fire extinguisher. after the recording, a parent who participated in the demonstration told reporters: "although i know the usage formula of the fire extinguisher's 'lift, grip and press', i can't operate it smoothly when i'm nervous. through the recording of this program, i learned that when using a fire extinguisher, you have to aim at the root of the flame to effectively put out the fire."

the "first lesson of public safety" program has a total of 5 on-site simulation experiments. zhang wentao, a staff member of the emergency research institute of beijing emergency management bureau and the project leader, said that in the cases provided by the public security traffic management, fire rescue and other departments, there are many cases where the parties lack experience in dealing with accidents or the harm caused by accidents has increased. the on-site simulation experiments of the program are designed to target the mistakes and dangerous behaviors of the parties in these cases, so that students and parents can find problems in actual operations, so as to achieve the purpose of combining education with entertainment, education with reality, and education with experience.

the traffic safety and fire safety section arranged six contents related to electric bicycles, such as accident videos and helmet safety experiments. according to li zhongyang, the guest on the scene and deputy director of the news and publicity department of the beijing fire rescue corps, 59 electric bicycle fires occurred in beijing in july this year alone. electric bicycles are an important means of transportation for many parents to pick up and drop off their children, and related accidents often involve primary and secondary school students. this program specifically explains the safety issues of electric bicycles to the audience from three aspects: traffic safety, product safety, and fire safety.

"last year, i watched the program 'public safety first lesson of the school year' on tv with my child. this year, when we heard that there was an opportunity to come to the recording site, we signed up immediately." "although we have a fire extinguisher at home, we didn't know how to use it. this time i finally figured it out." "as soon as the program was finished, my child asked me to go back and take him to walk through the evacuation route at home." after the recording of the program was over, a parent who participated in the recording said.

chen zhenxi, director of the emergency research institute of the beijing emergency management bureau, who is responsible for the program planning, said that the beijing municipal party committee and municipal government have always attached great importance to safety education for primary and secondary school students, and the beijing municipal emergency management bureau has been actively promoting this work. the "first lesson of public safety at the school year" program is a public safety education program for families, schools, and society created by the beijing municipal emergency management bureau based on the concept of "big safety, big emergency" and cross-border integration of resources from multiple departments.

over the past six years, the beijing emergency management bureau has carried out a series of safety science popularization activities on fire escape, traffic safety, extreme weather response, gas safety, electric bicycle safety, the internet and youth mental health, and has worked with the beijing municipal education commission to promote it in the education system, striving to achieve the goal of educating one child, driving one family and influencing the entire society.

"in the future, in the brand building of the program "the first lesson of public safety at the school year", we will continue to focus on the theme of 'big hands holding small hands, building a safe dream together'. on the one hand, we will encourage parents and children to 'hold hands' to learn safety knowledge together. on the other hand, we will promote the educational concepts of understanding, trust, communication, and companionship, and work together with parents and teachers to promote the safe growth of students." chen zhenxi said.
