Teacher Develops Portable Chemistry Lab for Students

Abhilash Thiruvoth, a chemistry teacher at Government Vocational Higher Secondary School for Girls in Nadakkavu, has developed a portable lab called 'Rasappetti' to improve student engagement. Designed to overcome time constraints in 40-minute class periods, the wooden box allows teachers to demonstrate experiments directly in the classroom.

The kit contains essential equipment like test tubes, beakers, and various chemical reagents. Teachers for classes 6 through 10 can customize the contents based on their specific syllabus requirements, with supplies lasting approximately two months per load. The project was created to make science learning more practical and accessible for high school students.
