The Development of Chemical Representations-Oriented Virtual Laboratory for Teaching Electrolysis in Chemistry Classes

Abstract

This study aimed to describe the development of a chemical representation-oriented virtual laboratory. It produced a learning media application which could be used in electrolysis study materials. The study described the analysis phase and the design and development phase. It also analyzed the results of limited tests towards the product. The study showed that the virtual laboratory features a colorful, attractive design and interactivity. The virtual laboratory can be potentially used as a learning media in chemistry learning on electrolysis concepts.
