Physics is a fundamental natural science based on experimentation. Through physics experiments, students' abilities to discover, analyze, and solve problems are cultivated, enhancing their scientific literacy and practical skills, and fostering an innovative spirit and creativity. Therefore, the establishment and equipment configuration plan for middle school physics laboratories not only enriches laboratory course resources but also comprehensively meets the needs of enhancing students' scientific literacy.
