Dear Steemit Team,
As technology continues to advance at an ever-increasing pace, by 2026 it has become an integral part of people’s daily lives. We can see that technology is no longer used exclusively by large companies or communities, but has also helped ordinary people in everything from working, studying, selling, communicating, to creating digital content.

Given this background, I would like to resubmit my proposal for the 33rd Steemit Challenge with the theme: “Exploring Smart Living: Technology Around Us”. Yes, it’s the same as my proposal from the previous session.

This challenge will focus on how technology is used in everyday life by the general public—ranging from households, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), education, and the workplace, to the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in daily life.

Through this challenge, participants are expected to be able to:

• To introduce modern technology to our local communities.
• To create informative and clear visual content.
• To effectively explain the benefits of technology in everyday life.
• To develop strong storytelling and photography/video skills.
• To showcase digital transformation in various regions and countries.

We have observed that technology has now become an integral part of people’s lives, but many Steemit users still need to improve their skills in the following areas:

Explaining the use of technology clearly and effectively, combining technology with engaging and attention-grabbing narratives, explaining the real-world impact of technology, creating simple yet informative technology posts, and utilizing AI and digital technology in a positive way

Therefore, if selected to participate in the S32 challenge over the next 6 weeks, the main goal is to help participants understand, document, and share the latest technological developments around them through creative, educational, and high-quality posts.

Here is the 6-week lesson schedule that we would like to share:

Rules of participation

• Participants must use their own original photos
• Photos from the internet are not allowed
• Participants are encouraged to visit the location in person if discussing a public place
• The use of AI is not permitted, and plagiarism is not allowed
• Each post must explain the benefits of the technology being discussed

When publishing a post, participants must include:

• 5–7 original photos
• 1 selfie as proof of your visit
• A video at least 1 minute long (it is very important to show the location and atmosphere firsthand)
• An explanation of how the technology works
• Location and SteemAtlas (if relevant)
• A story about your experience using the technology
• Weekly posts based on the provided materials, on your personal blog or in any community such as the STEEM LENS community.
• Use the official hashtags: # technology, # steem-atlas, # steemexclusive # yourcountry (e.g., indonesia, venezuela) # steemvideo (if there is a video).
• Tasks must be written in clear and neat language and be relevant to the theme.
• Respect the work of other participants by interacting through comments and support.

The following is an example of an Assessment Format:

I hope that the “Smart Life Discovery: Technology Around Us” challenge will help Steemit users understand modern technological developments, make positive use of digital technology, and create high-quality posts that are both educational and beneficial to the global Steemit community.
