Impact of Computer Simulation Assisted Virtual Experiment Module in Learning Hydrogen Atom in Senior High School

Abstract

Abstract This study aims to (1) develop virtual-experimental software based on augmented reality as an interactive learning medium, which can be used as a teaching tool to improve the students’ mastery of physics concepts, (2) test the comparative advantage of Hydrogen Atom learning with a virtual approach experiment based on augmented reality with ordinary learning models on senior high school students’ learning outcomes. The research was categorized as quasi-experimental research which used a non-equivalent pre-test post-test control group. The research instrument used was a learning outcome test. The research data were analyzed by using covariance analysis (ANACOVA). The results of this study showed that the learning outcomes of students who studied with the AR-based virtual in the experimental learning model group were higher than students who studied in the conventional learning model group.
