This study assesses how well-developed skills, piqued scientific curiosity, and improved learning outcomes are all achieved through hands-on chemistry activities. In Kazakhstan, data was gathered from 75 students in the 10th and 11th grades of state general education schools through the use of a mixed-method technique that combined questionnaires and interviews. The majority of students confirmed that laboratory work helps with memorizing, improves enjoyment of chemistry, increases motivation, and improves general attitude towards the topic. The results show that these comments were overwhelmingly positive. Despite these advantages, problems including a lack of resources and equipment keep hindering thorough practical training. Ensuring fair access to high-quality education requires addressing these issues. This study highlights the importance of innovative teaching approaches and adequate resources to promote student engagement and success in science and technology.enHands-on laboratory workPractical ChemistryChemistryArticle
