THE EFFECTS OF COMIC-ASSISTED ELECTRICAL LABORATORY ON ACHIEVEMENT AND INTEREST TOWARDS LEARNING PHYSICS

A powerful media for instruction and learning and understanding physics principles is essential for clarifying abstract ideas. A poor teaching strategy will discourage students from mastering their experimenting skills and worsen their comprehension of the material in practical terms. This study aimed to investigate the impact of an intervention employing a comic-assisted Electrical laboratory learning application on students achievement and interest for physics in the matriculation program. In this study from 2022, 134 students with low Electrical test scores took part. This study was carried out utilizing a one group pre- and post-test study design and a quasi-experimental quantitative analysis. This study involves study subjects getting an intervention for eight weeks and their experience was measured quantitatively to ascertain the success of the intervention that has been carried out. The comic instrument, the Electrical Topic Achievement Test, and the Comic Based Physics Learning Interest questionnaire which were based on comic teaching materials were the instruments employed in this study. The studys conclusions demonstrate a notable improvement in student interest and accomplishment as well as in their recall of facts and capacity to respond to problems requiring sophisticated thought processes related to Electrical. The studys conclusions also demonstrate a rise in the high degree of student interest for learning physics, as well as a gain value or N-Gain of 0.83. As a result, this study demonstrates how applying Electrical laboratory learning with comics can serve as an active teaching and learning media, boosting student interest to meet learning goals more successfully.
