Homemade Colorimeter - A Cross-curriculum Project to Nurture Students” Problem Solving Skill and Creativity

Data collection in modern chemistry experiments depends heavily on electronic techniques.Chemistry classes in secondary schools have also incorporate electronic data collection in practical sessions.However,due to limited budget in secondary schools,electronic measuring devices are not widely available for secondary students.Many students have very limited experiences in handling such devices,making them more difficult to understand the structures and working principles of these devices.In recent years,thanks to the advance in 3D printing and computer control technologies,secondary students can now build their own electronic data collection devices used in chemistry experiment(such as colorimeter)easily and cheaply.The author carried out a small project,asking students to build a simple colorimeter,using 3D printing and Arduino technologies,for use in senior secondary chemistry experiments.
