Wuhan University, located in central China's Wuhan City – the former COVID-19 epicenter – conducted online teaching throughout the spring semester since most of their students were unable to return to campus.

Before the spring semester wrapped, the school of Electronic Information had to find a way to issue a final exam to its students without them needing to perform experiments in the lab.

To help students complete the final test, staff in the Wuhan University packed over 1 million electronic parts into 600 groups, and delivered them to each of its students, so that everyone could set up a mini lab at home.
