Effects of the Integration of PhET Simulations in the Teaching and Learning of the Physical Sciences of Common Core (Morocco)

Since 2000 till nowadays, the Moroccan educational system is increasingly evolving towards the optimal adoption of the competency-based approach that focuses on the learner. From this perspective, it is necessary to search for new pedagogical tools that can emulate the real experiment in creating motivational learning environments and improving the process of acquiring competences, especially with the shortage of experimental equipment in school lab. With the growing interest in ICT (Information Communication Technology), the use of interactive simulations has emerged as a true competitor to the real experience, and an effective alternative to traditional practices. This work aims to study the impact of using the interactive simulation product
