Fun With Science and Mathematics

Fun With Science and Mathematics is the programme organized by FST in order to attract the students in range of primary and secondary school to the world of science and mathematics. i and a few of my friends were invited to join the programme as the exhibition fasilitator. as we are in chemistry course, we di the exhibition about the worlds of chemist. our exhibition was split in two session; first is " chemistry my love" - the explaining and talks about the enjoying chemistry world and second is the exhibition and demonstration part.
the talks was delivered by Chemistry lecturer at the begining such as Dr. zainul and Dr. Ismail. then we have one more talks at the end of the session after the tour on exhibitin. i myselft who delivered the second talks. it is extremely fun when giving the talks although i am not a good speaker especially delivering in english, but its nice to see the students show their attractions towards chemistry. at the session, i showed them a few video related to what they can do using chemistry. i remebered one of the student ask me the detail step on how to do the smoke bombs. it is really surprising and the lecturer in charge, our beloved Miss Mazlina ask me not to tell because it is dangerous to do at home. and after that, the video is not being showed anymore..( due to the safety)

in the exhibition parts, we have 6 stations which demonstrate some interesting expeiment to the students. the experiment chosen is based on something that can show changes that will amazed the students. the station are:

1. funny colour- the application of asid and base that show the changes on the colour of the water.
2. magic draw- the uses of chemical compound that is flameable to draw a picture and then being burn to get a moving drawing picture
3. lava lamp - the concept of density and reaction in water which then create a volcano or lava movement in water. really beautiful
4. making water- the purfying method of water
5. chem's park- the conceptof the reaction of different types of salt that produce a very beautiful scenery of park
6. pepsi blue- the concept of chemical reaction that change the colour of solution

our exhibition is held smoothly as we have the person who monitoring the event. yes that is miss mazlina who helped by mr.badrul.they are the one responsible in to make sure evertyhing smooth.i totally miss the programme and hope to be involve in this kind of progrrame again.
