Abstract Starting with the preparation of popping boba popular in milk tea, this paper guides students to explore the multidimensional application of alginate gel in the fields of medicine and environmental governance through exquisite experimental design. The experiment originates from life, and it is in line with the environmental and medical hot spots of public concern. Combined with the original animation video, the formation of hydrogel and drug release and other related principles are introduced in simple terms.
