A particularly important aspect of learning physics is using models of physical objects, processes and phenomena. Modeling is an important component of learning and cognitive activity. This determines its importance for the formation and development of students’ knowledge and skills. The Physics Education Technology (PhET) project creates useful simulations for teaching and learning physics and makes them freely available on the PhET web site: http://phet.colorado.edu The simulations are interactive, animated and visual. Some ideas for their using in physics education are presented. They can be used in various of ways, including demonstration experiment as part of lecture, student group work or individual worksheets, homework assignments or labs. The possibility for using simulations in remote education is considered. Students are given interactive assignments. They include interactive problems in the form of computer simulation and questions related to it. The students work with data which they analyze and present tabular and graphically. This approach suggest activities based on enquiry. In result their motivation and interest in physics increases.

This study aimed to find out if Physics Education Technology (PhET) simulations can improve the performance of the Baybay City Senior High School STEM students on the selected topic in physics, that is, electrodynamics. This study utilized a quasi-experimental type where pre-test and post-test are multiple choice type of test and involved 72 STEM students. The grouping of the students was identified based on their sections, one section served as the control group and other is the experimental group. Experimental group is allowed to play the PhET simulation for an hour utilizing their vacant period every day, while the control is not exposed to any activity that intervene leading to the creation of formal construct of ideas in electrodynamics. Result showed that mean scores of the control and experimental groups does not imply a significant difference, despite of the interest shown by the students in playing the said simulation. Perhaps, students are more attracted to simulation in which they have gone through during their lectures. Furthermore, study shows that the performance of students before and after exposure to PhET simulation does not necessarily pose a big difference but indicates a slight improvement to their performances.

In this study, conceptual and algebra-based physics students were engaged in scientific inquiry using Physics Education Technology (PhET) interactive simulations via semester-long group projects. The instructor and students used the Scientific Abilities Assessment Rubrics (SAAR) to evaluate project presentations and papers (formative assessment). The overall research project was evaluated using Lab Skills Self-Assessment (LSSA) survey (pre and post) and the post reflection survey. The Science Process Skills Inventory (SPSI) was used to analyze some of the students’ responses to the reflection survey. Quantitative analysis of the LSSA survey showed a large effect size for both conceptual and algebra-based physics students (Cohen’s d 0.8, in both courses). Qualitative analysis of the reflection surveys supported this apparent huge gain in lab skills and revealed considerable positive students’ experiences of the PhET simulations (88% of students indicated positive satisfaction).

A reprodução de experimentos científicos em laboratório é frequentemente difícil, devido ao número de alunos por turma, insuficiência de equipamentos ou à incompatibilidade do tempo necessário à realização dos experimentos. Por outro lado, o medo de manusear circuitos elétricos é sem dúvida uma das causas do baixo rendimento dos alunos em eletricidade. Diante dessa perspectiva, propusemos o desenvolvimento de roteiros experimentais de Eletrodinâmica utilizando os simuladores virtuais do PhET (Physics Education Technology Project), da Universidade do Colorado (EUA) como metodologia de ensino. O objetivo da atividade foi utilizar a simulação como ferramenta facilitadora da aprendizagem sobre o funcionamento de um circuito elétrico. A proposta foi aplicada a alunos do 3º ano do Curso Técnico de Mineração do Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Amapá e envolveu a interação em um ambiente virtual, tendo como suporte conceitos decorrentes da perspectiva de Vygotsky. Para a construção e análise de dados trabalhou-se com levantamento bibliográfico, coleta de dados por meio de testes, roteiro de entrevista e observação in loco. Os resultados obtidos indicaram boa aceitação da proposta, na medida em que o uso da tecnologia teve um sentido transformador na prática pedagógica, ou seja, que o PhET não foi usado simplesmente para reproduzir o modelo tradicional de ensino, mas para criar situações de aprendizado sobre Eletrodinâmica. A atividade contribuiu para fortalecer uma visão construtivista do processo de aprendizagem, destacando o forte envolvimento dos alunos na construção do conhecimento ao integrar ideias prévias às ferramentas de aprendizagem.
