VC.LAB (Virtual Chemistry Labora VC.LAB (Virtual Chemistry Laboratory): DESIGN AND BUILD AN ANDROID-BASED ACID-BASE TITRATION GAME APPLICATION AS A CHEMISTRY INTERACTIVE LEARNING MEDIUM IN HIGH SCHOOL

Abstract

Acid-base titration material is difficult for most students because it is abstract. According to Sheppard [17], students describe the neutralization process as the physical mixing of acids and bases that do not produce products and do not have a reaction equation. From these problems, researchers designed the VC.LAB (Virtual Chemistry Laboratory) application: Design and Build an Android-Based Acid-Base Titration Game Application as a Chemistry Interactive Learning Medium in High School. This application can make it easier for students to understand the acid-base titration material. In addition, the existence of various cool features available can attract students to learn it. The method used in this study is the prototype method. This method is carried out in stages, namely by developing a simple prototype first and then being developed from time to time until the software is finished being developed [16]. The results of the design of making this game are carried out by creating a model that explains the material and practical simulation activities in the form of a special smartphone application to make it easier for users to carry out individual learning virtually.
