Оқушылардың химия пәніне деген қызығушылығын арттырудағы этнохимиялық тәсілдердің маңыздылығы

Abstract

The article examines the importance of using ethnochemical approaches in teaching chemistry at school and their impact on student interest and performance. Ethnochemistry is a field of science that connects chemical education with the national and cultural context. This approach allows students to associate chemical phenomena with everyday life and contributes to the development of their scientific thinking skills. The study was carried out by a quasi-experimental method among high school students of the Kyzylorda region. Through ethnochemical experiments, students were able to combine their theoretical knowledge with practical examples and deeply understand the application of chemistry in life. For example, traditional methods such as fermentation methods, crystallization processes by evaporation of salt water from the Aral Sea, fractional oil pumping methods and studies of the solubility of inorganic salts are used in rice processing. The results showed that the use of ethnochemical methods not only increased students' interest in the subject, but also increased their interest in scientific research. This method contributed to the development of students' creative abilities, improving scientific thinking skills and strengthening their respect for the national cultural heritage. The introduction of ethnochemistry into the educational process is recognized as an innovative tool in the modern education system and is an effective way to optimize the attitude of students to chemistry.
