Description
Summary:Chemistry is a subject that is difficult to visualize by students, especially when looking at changes in the response of elements in the periodic table to other elements such as water which is H2O. The difficulty of understanding and imagining such reactions will make the students bored easily and reduce concentration in classroom. Therefore, interesting approach should be adapted, especially by school teachers in their teaching delivery. In this research a preliminary study have been conducted by planning the step to take in the research; making an analysis on the information collected; designing the system structure and flow; develop the system using Augmented Reality approach by using Adobe Photoshop, Blender and Unity, and lastly testing the system effectiveness and getting users feedback. This project focuses on simulating H2O responses to elements in the periodic table that covers in chapter four for the fourth-grade secondary students. A group of ten students have been picked randomly as participants in the usability testing. From the testing, results shows that the application was function well and most of the respondents were satisfied with this application. In conclusion, the approach of Augmented Reality application could help students to understand and see the changes of H2O reaction towards the elements in the periodic table with more cleared and at the same time this technology can be used as a new learning technique approach in a classroom.
