✨🔮 Exploring the Science of Light, Reflection, and Illusion! 🌈✨

We were delighted to welcome students from Solarise Tuition Centre to Tech Dome Penang for an engaging STEM learning experience through our MirrorLusion Workshop.

During the workshop, students explored the fascinating science behind light, reflection, and optical illusions through two hands-on activities. They built their own colourful kaleidoscopes to discover how mirrors and light create beautiful symmetrical patterns, and experimented with infinity mirrors to observe how multiple reflections can produce the illusion of endless depth.

Through creativity, experimentation, and hands-on learning, students gained a deeper understanding of scientific concepts while developing curiosity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

At Tech Dome Penang, we believe the best way to learn science is to experience it firsthand, and these young learners certainly embraced the spirit of discovery throughout the day! ✨

Thank you, Solarise Tuition Centre, for visiting us. We look forward to welcoming you again for more exciting STEM adventures in the future.
