Maker Fortnight - DNA Extraction Workshop

During the creativity fortnight event held by our school, a DNA Extraction workshop was carried out on 14th March 2019 in order to let our students have a first trial on Biotechnology. Students extracted DNA from strawberries themselves under student helpers' and teacher's supervision. It's a great opportunity for them to cultivate the interest on Biotechnology. Students were interested in the workshop and they enjoyed it so much.

One of our students acted as a teacher to give a brief introduction on DNA and lead our workshop smoothly. Students were focused on the introduction too.
Our teachers were demonstrating the experimental steps.
Students were preparing the extraction solution for extracting DNA from strawberries later.
Student helpers were supervising the participants to perform the DNA extraction experiment.
Students had so much fun from the DNA extraction. They enjoyed the activity so much.
