GAME-BASED LEARNING SYSTEM FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN PHYSICS LEARNING

In Malaysia, most of the teachers are still using traditional teaching approach to teach physics in school despite the rapid growth of educational technology. There are some issues related to physics learning in the current education system, such as the difficulty in learning physics, lack of stude...
