Making A Hydrogen Peroxide Synthesis Cartoon Film For A Learning Model For Applied Chemistry Courses

Creativity in delivering lecture material is especially important for courses that are considered difficult, particularly in departments where these courses do not form the core competencies. For example, courses like mathematics, physics, and chemistry in the graphics engineering department require innovative teaching approaches. One way to enhance creativity is by presenting scientific concepts through life-like images that are easier to understand, more realistic, and engaging. This study focuses on presenting chemical concepts through images with unique characters, which are then packaged into a cartoon film. Each character is designed to represent the properties of atoms and molecules, such as hydrogen, oxygen, and water, which are essential elements in the formation of hydrogen peroxide. The cartoon films are designed to stimulate curiosity and encourage deeper questioning, addressing both basic and advanced concepts. The answers provided in the films also relate to practical real-world applications. Therefore, the cartoons created in this study aim to improve the quality of applied chemistry learning and enhance graduate competencies.
