Abstract
The article depicts the case of making a research paper of students, aged 15-16. In the research paper made during the remote learning period, the students were investigating natural acid-base indicators. They used various plant materials (vegetables, fruits, flowers) that they found in their kitchen at home and prepared dye extracts, which they used as indicators. The colouring of individual indicator was then verified in acidic and basic solution, also made at home. They found out that various plant extracts can be used as natu ral acid-base indicators, e.g. an extract from the pomegranate fruit, blueberries, raspberries, rosehips, plums and poinsettia flowers
