Lorentz Force Practicum Tool (LoFoPaT): Enhancing Students' Conceptual Understanding in Physics

The Lorentz Force Practicum Tool (LoFoPaT) is a physics learning medium designed to visualize abstract concepts related to the direction of the Lorentz force. This study aims to describe the development of LoFoPaT and its effectiveness in constructing students’ understanding of Lorentz force concepts. The research employed a 4D model (Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate). During the development stage, the tool was enhanced to generate a larger Lorentz force. Based on assessments by three experts using Mini-Facets Rasch 3.84.0 software, the results indicated that LoFoPaT is valid, though some revisions were suggested. In the dissemination stage, LoFoPaT was implemented with 20 high school students (11 females and 9 males) as research subjects. The Four-tier Instrument on Lorentz Force (FILOF) was used for pre- and post-test questions. The results demonstrated that LoFoPaT is effective in constructing students’ understanding of the Lorentz force at an intermediate level. In conclusion, LoFoPaT can be utilized as a physics learning medium in classrooms to enhance students’ conceptual understanding, particularly in visualizing the direction of the Lorentz force using the right-hand rule

A Systematic Review of Augmented Reality Game-Based Applications in Primary Education

Augmented Reality game-based learning (ARGBL) is quickly gaining momentum in the education sector worldwide as it has the potential to enable new forms of learning and transform the learning experience. However, it remains unclear how ARGBL applications can impact students’ motivation and performance in primary education. This study addresses that topic by providing a systematic review, which analyses and critically appraises the current state of knowledge and practice in the use of ARGBL applications in primary education. In total, seventeen (17) studies that used either qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-methods to collect their data were analysed and were published between 2012 and 2017. The study results indicated that ARGBL applications are mainly used to document the design and development process, as well as to share preliminary findings and student feedback. Based on a comprehensive taxonomy of application areas for AR in primary education, ARGBL can potentially influence the students’ attendance, knowledge transfer, skill acquisition, hands-on digital experience, and positive attitudes in laboratory experimental exercises for different courses. This review aims to offer new insights to researchers and provide educators with effective advice and suggestions on how to improve learning outcomes, as well as increase students’ motivation and learning performance by incorporating this instructional model into their teaching
