Abstract

The change in the Malaysian education system from the Integrated Secondary School Curriculum to the Standard Secondary School Curriculum in 2017 has brought reformations and additions to the content in Physics forms 4 and 5. There are two new topics introduced which are Gravitation and Quantum Physics. The introduction of this new topic has challenged teachers to produce an effective teaching aid. Furthermore, the world is facing the advancement of information technology that demands the integration of ICT in schools through the Malaysian Education Development Plan (2013 - 2025) based on standards given by the International Association of Educational Technology (ISTE). Therefore, this study aims to develop a science simulation with the concept of ICT technology such as an interactive simulation-based mobile application as a teaching aid. The topic of Gravitation form 4 and the first subtopic, Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, were chosen as the basis for the development of the simulation. The selection is based on the findings of the first study of the study which is the identification of critical subtopics in the topic of Gravitation. The developed simulations were then tested by 20 Physics teachers from various secondary schools in Malaysia. This study also aims to assess the level of effectiveness of this simulation through the results of a survey conducted among teachers. This study has contributed ideas to teachers on the parts that need to be focused on teaching the topic of Gravitation, as well as providing effective teaching aids for use in teaching and learning.
