| Abstract |
Many schools have limited access to laboratories, and some cannot provide students with laboratory experiences. This is even though
practical work is vital in the field of science. This study aims to address the lack of science laboratory work by developing a module on acid and
base, small-scale chemistry (SSC) activities, and small-scale chemistry (SSC) kit. The study also determined the conceptual understanding of the
students before and after the implementation, and evaluate their perception of the SSC approach. This study used a mixed methods to analyze and
gather data, The respondents were 50 Grade 11 STEM students. Findings showed that the module, SSC activities, and SSC kit received a positive
evaluation from experts who were in-service chemistry teachers. Furthermore, the post-test scores of the students significantly improved,
indicating an improved conceptual understanding of acid and base concepts after the intervention. This implies that the SSC approach was as
effective as the traditional laboratory. |
