Item Open Access A Method of Computer-Based Chemistry Instruction: Construction of Concept Maps(Suleyman Demirel University, 2007) Satılmış YılmazThis study discusses the use of computer-based concept map construction as an instructional method in chemistry education. Concepts in chemistry are often abstract and difficult for students to understand through traditional teaching methods. Concept maps provide a visual and organized way to represent relationships between ideas, helping learners develop meaningful understanding. When supported by computer technologies, concept map construction becomes more interactive, motivating, and cooperative. Students actively search for key concepts, create meaningful connections, and organize information visually. This approach aligns with student-centered learning, encouraging research, discussion, and collaboration. Computer-assisted concept mapping also improves communication between students and teachers and can be used for review, assessment, and practice. The method strengthens research skills, critical thinking, and creativity. Therefore, integrating computers into chemistry lessons through concept map construction can support deeper conceptual understanding and enhance overall learning outcomes in secondary-school chemistry education.Item Open Access EXPLORING THE EFFICACY OF VIRTUAL LABORATORY SIMULATIONS IN ENHANCING STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES(Faculty of Education & Humanities, 2024) Alikhan S.; Zharylkassyn U.Virtual laboratory has become an essential tool to provide Physics subject.VL can be a great accelerator for delivering complicated and abstract topics in Physics.The study was performed to understand if a virtual laboratory-based teaching method is effective on student’s academic achievement in Physics lesson.This study concentrated on academic performance of grade 8 students of Al Farabi lyceum, school year 2023-2024.The method used in the article is quasi-experimental.The sample divided to experimental group and control group.In the EG lessons provided by using VL and in the CG provided as traditional lesson.To measure students academical achievement participants passed pre-post tests. The study's findings suggested that students learning outcomes might be enhanced by simulation-based activities. Furthermore, it was shown that the majority of students thought highly of the virtual laboratory activities.
