Laboratory Activities at Faculty of Teacher Training and Education

The Faculty of Teaching and Education is hosting the participants of Borneo Youth Leadership Camp 2023 for two days, starting from the  17th to the 18th of July. The activities of the first day begin soon after the opening ceremony and the orientation session for the students. They went to the Faculty of Teaching and Education to attend the first lecture series, at first the participants received remarks from the Dean of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education. After that, they’re moving to Biology Education Laboratorium to learn how to make resin keychains and did laboratory experiments in Physics Education Laboratorium.

Move to the next day, there are some lab activities too. In the first labs they were doing a STEM activity, Water Turbidity Project. They are required to install a light meter application on their phone as a water measurement tool. Each time there is a change in water turbidity, they have to observe it. They were doing this in a group, and at the end of this lab they received Amplang as a gift.
