Digital visualization technologies play a pivotal role in aiding students' comprehension of abstract concepts. This study addresses this critical need by creating tailored stop-motion animation (SMA) aimed at rectifying misunderstandings concerning gas-collection activity. The development process spanned six phases, involving information collection, episode identification, storyboard construction, model creation, transformation models into digital images, and the addition narration to craft...

The particulate nature of matter (PNM) concept poses a significant challenge for numerous students, primarily because it is abstract and difficult to visualize. Computer simulations (CSs) can aid students in visualizing microscopic particles using particle models. Despite the wide use CSs development student understanding submicroscopic representation particles, topics such as PNM, additional representations macroscopic symbolic are typically present, which add complexity. Facilitating...
