Students face many difficulties in understanding some imaginary physical phenomena, mathematical or logical concepts and formations, which makes it difficult for the university professor to reach the required scientific perception, so the professors are forced to move forward using all digital innovations in order to provide the highest possible teaching quality., This paper describes computational modelling. And simulates and visualizes some physical phenomena in college using the VPython programming language (Visual Python), which is a great tool for demonstrating, calculating, and simulating physics displays and experiments, as VPython is a powerful and easy-to-use environment for creating 3D animations and publishing them on the web. It contains many built-in objects and shapes, as well as graphic capabilities. They can be used to create interactive programs using user interface elements. The process of making the program interactive starts first with creating the objects and setting variables for them, then creating a widget that the user can interact with, which is a useful exploration and a new way to improve students' skills and support the interactive teaching of computers and humans for Physics, as well as a response to the 'education' reform in Libya

“…By emphasizing the mathematical-physical model relationship, students gain a more in-depth understanding of the physical phenomena under investigation [25]. VPython is widely used in physics and mathematics, particularly when working with three-dimensional objects such as vectors, geometric forms, and projectile motion [26,27].…”

Computational thinking has been identified as an important approach for enabling students' better comprehension of science concepts as well as scientific procedures. Computation is useful in physics because it permits physics theories to be applied to issues that are complicated to fix analytically. Visual Python provides a 3D environment where learners may design 3D objects, apply a physical framework, and study the effects of altering parameters. The implementation and outcomes of a 6-week teacher-led computational thinking intervention with groups of 12th graders (n=60) are described in this study. Two research questions are being addressed using quantitative analysis and a quasi-experimental approach involving a pre- and post-test. The participants who received the six-week implementation on the experimental group performed significantly better on the post-test than the control group, which received only standard teaching lectures. The results indicated a statistically significant difference in mean scores between the experimental group (M = 24.03, SD = 4.68) and the control group (M = 20.3, SD = 5.38). The findings indicate that implementing computational thinking activities not only improves students' knowledge of physics concepts, but it also improves visual thinking, allowing students to better cognitively comprehend the problem.
