We successfully conducted a foldscope workshop at STEMPARK. As projekt Inspire, we provided STEM education based on hands-on activities that encourage student participation and engagement. In this workshop, students were introduced to the concepts of the living organism, the microscope, and the microworld in general.

In this session, Foldscope was the tool that was used to observe microorganisms and small details of different species. Learn how to assemble a foldscope and how to observe different specimens using a foldscope. And the result of the image captured was a fern rhizome specimen from a specimen kit we have.
