Abstract
Science Education at the secondary level holds paramount importance as it serves as the foundation for further scientific pursuits. The efficacy of secondary level science education significantly impacts a students inclination towards higher studies and eventual contribution to scientific and technological advancements. In order to enhance the effectiveness of secondary level science education, it is imperative to explore innovative teaching-learning strategies that transcend traditional lecture-based methods. Research and surveys consistently advocate for activity-based learning approaches over conventional lecture methods, citing their ability to foster deeper understanding and retention among learners. Practical work emerges as a cornerstone of this approach, offering hands-on engagement and experiential learning opportunities. With the recent shift in the academic structure as per the National Education Policy of 2020 (N.E.P-2020), extending the secondary level from grades 9 to 12, there lies a crucial window for students to immerse themselves in scientific exploration and discovery.Subjects such as Physics, Chemistry, and Biology inherently lend themselves to practical applications, presenting ample opportunities for students to engage directly with scientific concepts. By integrating practical work into the curriculum, secondary level science education can cultivate critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a deeper appreciation for the scientific method. This shift towards practical-based learning not only aligns with contemporary pedagogical trends but also serves as a catalyst for nurturing the next generation of innovators and scientists.
