The Department of Chemistry organized an innovative activity titled “Video-Making on Natural Chemical Phenomena” for the II BSc students on October 03, 2025. The main aim of this activity was to encourage students to observe and understand the chemical phenomena occurring naturally and in daily life through visual and creative representation. Each group was assigned or selected a topic related to natural chemical processes and prepared a short explanatory video.
The topics chosen by the students included Scattering of Light, Oxidation, Fermentation, Water Flow in Falls, Thunder and Lightning, and the Tyndall Effect. Students demonstrated these phenomena through real-life examples and simple experiments, explaining the underlying scientific principles in their videos.
Students recorded short videos and visuals to represent each concept clearly. During the presentation session the videos were screened in the class, and students discussed the science behind each phenomenon. The activity provided a platform for students to connect theoretical knowledge with practical observations.
20 students were divided into four groups, each consisting of five members. Every group selected a topic related to chemical phenomena observed in nature or daily life and created short educational videos demonstrating and explaining the concept.
The activity was a successful and engaging learning experience. It provided students an opportunity to explore chemistry beyond textbooks and understand its relevance in the natural world. The activity fostered scientific thinking, creativity, and collaboration among the students.
- Students developed better conceptual clarity about natural and chemical processes.
- The activity enhanced their creative and communication skills.
- It encouraged teamwork and scientific curiosity among participants.
- Students learned to observe and analyze chemistry in everyday life and the natural environment.
