Implication

Experiment demonstrates improved physics performance in Grade 9 students using computer simulations, indicating enhanced conceptual understanding.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of PhET simulations in improving physics performance among Grade 9 students.
  • One-group pre-test–post-test pre-experimental design
  • Total enumeration of Grade 9 students (N = 39)
  • Integration of PhET-based interactive lessons over five weeks
  • Data collection through a validated instrument
  • Data analysis using descriptive statistics and paired-sample t-tests
  • Pre-test mean of 72.59 with 100% failure rate in energy transformation concepts
  • Post-intervention mean increased to 80.49
  • Statistically significant improvements across all physics competencies (p < .001)
  • Observations of large effect sizes ranging from d = 0.803 to d = 1.238
  • Highest gain recorded in Heat, Work, and Efficiency domain with d = 1.188
