Adopting Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning to develop an Augmented Reality learning kit in Topic of Gravitation in Physics High School

Abstract

Abstract concept which has been believed to be one of the problems in physics. This paper proposed an integration of Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning to develop a learning kit based on augmented reality.  Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning is believed to guide researchers to develop a meaningful learning kit to help students increase their knowledge in Gravitation. The five principles involved in this theory are Coherence Principle, Signalling Principle, Redundancy Principle, Spatial Contiguity Principle and Temporal Contiguity Principle. Many technologies have been used in producing better learning environment. The study involves 15 students in a high school. The instruments used in this study are Pre test, Post test and Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test. Findings show there was increase in scores after the implementation. The inferential analysis of non -parametric test Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test also being done after the implementation of the AR learning kit. The study shows there are significant differences between the mean of the Pre Test scores and the Post Test scores in Gravitation Test (z = -3.411, p=0.001). The results show that AR learning kit have a significant difference in the scores of Pre and Post test of the students in topic Gravitation by integrating the CTML theory.
