ENHANCING STUDENTS’ INTEREST IN PHYSICS THROUGH LABORATORY ACTIVITIES IN GENERAL EDUCATION SCHOOLS

Abstract

Conducting laboratory experiments in physics plays a significant role in developing students’ creative abilities and scientific worldview in general education schools. This process not only enhances the quality and depth of learning but also fosters critical thinking, research orientation, innovation, and interest in scientific inquiry. Furthermore, laboratory classes positively contribute to students’ personal and professional growth. As a result, alongside theoretical knowledge, students gain practical experience, laying the groundwork for becoming skilled specialists in science and education.
