A Unified and Economical Approach to Teaching Higher Secondary Electricity Experiments
In both rural and urban educational settings, science education is often hindered by limited access to lab resources and intimidating, complex instruments. This paper introduces a low-cost, homemade experimental apparatus built using a mobile charger, nichrome wire, galvanometer, and digital multimeter that enables educators to perform key higher secondary electricity experiments. The Indigenous Metre Bridge (IMB) has proven to be an intuitive, user-friendly tool that not only bridges theoretical and practical learning but also reduces student apprehension toward lab work. Its simplicity and accessibility exemplify how frugal innovation can transform physics education.
