Item Open Access Investigating The Effectiveness of Extra-Curricular Activities in Chemistry(SDU University, 2026) Bagytzhanova A.KThis study examines the effectiveness of ECAs and the level of student motivation on academic performance in chemistry classes. The theoretical foundations of extracurricular learning and its role in shaping motivation were analyzed. The review highlighted the importance of integrating scientific disciplines and STEM subjects, which include science, technology, engineering, biology, physics, and mathematics, into effective chemistry teaching. The results of national and international studies on ECAs demonstrate that participation in extracurricular lessons provides academic advantages by developing the cognitive and practical skills of each student. It was found that the role of teachers in ECAs is significant, as they influence the effectiveness of laboratory work and increase student motivation. Problems with teaching chemistry in ECAs in different countries have been identified, such as a lack of funding for laboratory classrooms, passive students in the classroom, and a lack of self-discipline and self-control. There is a lack of practical knowledge in lessons, which makes extracurricular lessons special. It is concluded that consistently organized extracurricular activities in chemistry can significantly improve the quality of education.
