Abstract: To facilitate the integration of education and science, a specialized experiment has been designed to address the research hotspots in the field of energy. This experiment is characterized by collaborative innovation, ensuring both safety and operability. By starting with literature search and experiment design, students are guided to explore the advancements in zinc-air fuel cells, understand their working principles, assembly techniques, and methods for performance evaluation. Through a systematic training program that simulates the scientific research process, students are encouraged to pursue excellence and seek the truth in the scientific field. This program aims to gradually develop their scientific literacy and enhance their practical skills.

Key words: Integration of science and education, Specialized experiment, Zinc-air fuel cell, Assembly, Performance evaluation
