In this study, a module for percolation is developed in light of five goals for the Introductory Physics Laboratories formulated by the American Association of Physics Teachers. The module was tested and validated on a group of six first-year physics students. The content was based on an experiment on the percolation of a water network in the course of the dehydration process that used a simplified method of measurement. The students' opinions of the module were recorded and analyzed. That they had learned about the percolation phenomenon was verified through their lab reports and a specially designed survey. The results show that the students had positive opinions of the implemented module, and that it had enabled them to acquire basic knowledge of percolation.
