Abstract 2457 SciTrek: High school inquiry module on electrochemistry and glucose detection
We have developed a glucose sensing authentic inquiry module for high school students using an electrochemical sensor and glucose oxidase to detect glucose. This 5-day module focuses on equipping students with critical thinking and data analysis skills, while demonstrating the real-world applications of electrochemistry, biochemistry, and medicine. Each day of the module highlights how these fields collaboratively address complex, real-world problems. Beyond scientific skills, the program emphasizes cultivating practical abilities in scientific inquiry and research methodology, as well as heightening their interest in science through helping students grasp the importance of science subjects via their real-world applications.
