Live Q&A: 12 Questions About Chinese New Year!

Live on the "Ecran de savoirs" YouTube channel.

Come test your knowledge during a live YouTube show—with family, friends, or on your own—from the comfort of your couch. This event is part of a brand-new educational series: “Le live en questions” on the YouTube channel “Écran de savoirs.”

The "Live Q&A" session is open to everyone, and you don’t need to be an expert on the topic to participate. All you need is a desire to have a fun and informative time while testing your knowledge alongside a researcher specializing in the topic and student organizations.

The idea is to explore a specific topic alongside experts, include a quiz, and host a competition with student organizations and the online audience on the “Écran de savoirs” YouTube channel. The goal is to help foster dialogue between science and society in the Eastern Occitanie region by sharing scientific content in an engaging way.

Following a pilot event focused on the topic of parasites, on Monday, February 21, we’ll have the chance to discover or rediscover the traditions and parades that make the Chinese New Year such a unique celebration.

An expert has been specially invited for the occasion to correct the quiz live and answer questions from the audience:

• Solange Cruveillé, Associate Professor of Chinese Language and Literature at Paul Valéry University of Montpellier, member of the research team on the South and the East (UPVM), and associate member of the Institute for Asian Studies (AMU/CNRS).

For this edition, students from Paul-Valéry University stepped in front of the camera. You can hear all their answers exclusively during the live broadcast!
