Abstract

Instruction in the Electrical Circuits course requires graphical simulations to visualize circuit concepts without the need for physical hardware. The PSIM application module serves as an alternative tool to support simulation-based learning in this course. This study aimed to implement the PSIM application module to improve student learning outcomes and to investigate student responses to its implementation. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a quasi-experimental, one-group pretest-posttest design. Research instruments consisted of a learning achievement test and a response questionnaire, both validated by experts. The results showed that the average pretest score of 45.23 increased to 69.76 in the posttest. This improvement indicates that the implementation of the PSIM application module contributed to enhanced student learning outcomes. Questionnaire data also revealed a positive student response to the module, with a 79% rating falling into the high category. Thus, it can be concluded that the implementation of the PSIM-based learning module was associated with a significant improvement in students’ learning outcomes in the Electrical Circuits course within the Electrical Engineering Education Study Program
