examples of science experiments in science education

In science education, it’s crucial to not only study from textbooks but also to learn through hands-on experiments, which allow students to see and experience concepts firsthand. This book discusses the importance of experiments in science education and presents practical examples of experiments useful in various educational settings. For each experiment, detailed procedures are provided to ensure reproducibility. Target: Elementary, middle, high school students, and science clubs at each school. Experiments serve not only to entertain but also to cultivate scientific literacy. Therefore, the book explains the theories behind each experiment, in addition to detailing the methodology and presenting results. Moreover, it includes information on acquiring necessary equipment and examples of related products. The experiments featured in this book are not the typical ones conducted in schools. While some may be slightly advanced, they are still feasible for home settings with standard laboratory equipment or available experiment kits. As an appendix, the book addresses examples of accidents in science experiments and provides tips for accident prevention. Note: This book does not cover content related to programming education.
