Abstract

The development of digital technology in the Industrial Revolution 4.0 era has encouraged innovation in education, one of which is through Android-based mobile learning. However, students' mobile learning media use still needs improvement. This research aims to identify special needs in developing physics learning media based on Android applications that can effectively support the teaching and learning process. The method used was a descriptive survey with a mixed-methods approach involving class XI students and high school physics teachers who had implemented technology in learning. Data was collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, which were analyzed thematically and descriptively. The results showed that 90% of students are interested in physics, but 75% find it difficult. As many as 87.5% of students feel more interested when using learning media, and 80% need Android-based applications to increase interest in learning physics. However, only 25% of students have ever used application-based pocketbooks, indicating the low adoption of digital media in physics. This research concludes that developing interactive mobile learning applications that suit student needs and the curriculum is necessary to increase the effectiveness of physics learning. The implications of this research emphasize the need for collaboration between application developers, educators and educational stakeholders to create innovative and relevant learning media. The main recommendation is that schools and educational institutions consider integrating mobile learning applications in the physics curriculum and provide training to teachers to maximize the use of technology in learning.

Abstract

This research focuses on the early development of GEMAS (Game for Microscopic Atom Simulation) as an innovative digital teaching tool designed to support instruction on phase structures in physics education. In response to the post-pandemic shift towards technology-enhanced teaching, GEMAS was developed to integrate interactive, simulation-based pedagogy that enhances conceptual visualization. The study follows the 3D model (Define, Design, and Develop) and employs Multifaceted Rasch Measurement (MRFM) for evaluation. Validation was conducted by five experts, assessing curriculum alignment, scientific accuracy, language clarity, visual arrangement, and instructional effectiveness. These dimensions align with best practices in e-teaching, ensuring accessibility, engagement, and pedagogical rigor. MRFM analysis confirms the tool’s validity, with positive average scores across all indicators. The findings suggest that GEMAS is a well-designed digital resource, ready for implementation to enhance physics instruction in post-pandemic educational settings. The implications of this study extend beyond validating GEMAS as a tool; it demonstrates how immersive 3D simulations can address persistent misconceptions in physics education, particularly in post-pandemic contexts where digital engagement is critical. By bridging abstract concepts with interactive visualization, GEMAS offers a scalable model for enhancing e-teaching practices and fostering deeper conceptual understanding among students.
