“It is not the strongest species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the most responsive to change.” - Charles Darwin

Practical activities are not just motivational and fun, they also enable students to apply and extend their knowledge and understanding of biology in novel investigative situations, which can aid learning and memory, and stimulate interest. Presidium reaffirms the belief that practical education boosts a student's self-esteem, knowledge, and skills (both educationally and in the outside world), and enhances their transition into working life. For the purpose of developing practical skills by using equipment, tools, or technology, an activity was conducted for the students of Presidium, which created curiosity and observational skills about photosynthetic pigments by using different tools and techniques through animation and simulation. The goal of this activity was to provide students with a broad conceptual background in the biological sciences. Students understood the principle behind chromatography techniques and different types of pigments occurring in plant leaves.
