Project Abstract

Abstract
This research project aims to investigate the impact of utilizing digital simulations to enhance student engagement and improve learning outcomes in high school chemistry classes. The traditional approach to teaching chemistry often involves theoretical explanations and demonstrations, which may not fully engage students or cater to diverse learning styles. Incorporating digital simulations offers a dynamic and interactive method to supplement traditional teaching practices and provide students with hands-on experiences that can deepen their understanding of complex chemical concepts. The study will commence with a comprehensive review of literature on the effectiveness of digital simulations in science education, particularly focusing on chemistry instruction in high school settings. The literature review will explore the benefits of using digital simulations, such as promoting active learning, fostering critical thinking skills, and enhancing student motivation and engagement. Additionally, the review will analyze previous research studies that have investigated the impact of digital simulations on student learning outcomes and academic performance in science subjects. The research methodology will involve the implementation of a mixed-methods approach, utilizing both qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques to gather comprehensive insights into the effects of digital simulations on student engagement and learning outcomes. Surveys, interviews, and classroom observations will be conducted to assess student perceptions, attitudes, and academic achievements before and after the integration of digital simulations into the chemistry curriculum. The findings from this study are expected to reveal the extent to which digital simulations can enhance student engagement and improve learning outcomes in high school chemistry classes. The results will provide valuable insights into the effectiveness of integrating technology into science education and offer practical recommendations for educators seeking to enhance their teaching practices through innovative instructional tools. In conclusion, this research project seeks to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on improving science education by exploring the potential benefits of digital simulations in enhancing student engagement and learning outcomes in high school chemistry classes. By leveraging technology to create interactive and immersive learning experiences, educators can empower students to develop a deeper understanding of challenging scientific concepts and foster a lifelong appreciation for the field of chemistry.
