摘要
An investigation has been made to find the effectiveness on the use of interactive simulations in physics teaching and learning and its impact on learning achievement by determining the amount of their academic progression attained by students at the Middle East College, Oman. Results of the statistical analyses reveal that there is a significant difference in learning attained by the Experimental Group compared with that of Control Group and the impact of interactive simulations in physics education is discussed in the article.
