Digestion is a fundamentally important process for an individual's life. However, the physical process of digestion is hidden inside the body, making it challenging to understand and a particularly difficult topic for students to learn in the classroom. Traditional approaches to teaching body processes include a mixture of textbook teaching and visual learning. However, digestion is not particularly visual. This activity is designed to engage students using a combination of visual, inquiry-based, and experiential learning approaches and introduces the scientific method to students in secondary school. The laboratory simulates digestion, creating a "stomach" inside of a clear vial. Students fill the vials with a protease solution and visually observe the digestion of food. By making predictions about the types of biomolecules that will be digested, students begin to learn and understand basic biochemistry in a relatable context, while simultaneously understanding anatomical and physiological concepts. We trialled this activity at two schools, where we received positive feedback from teachers and students, indicating that the practical enhanced student understanding of the digestion process. We see this lab as a valuable learning activity that can be extended broadly across multiple classrooms around the world.
