Virtual Laboratory-Based Student Worksheets Development for Computational Thinking Practices

This research intends to create a virtual laboratory-based student worksheets model on Electrostatic Forces, Fields, and Equipotential Lines to educate students computational thinking. This study was divided into four stages: needs analysis, practicum learning design, student worksheets development, and evaluation. The literature research and field investigations employed in the needs analysis stage are related to the need for virtual laboratories, whereas the practicum learning design stage begins by determining competency criteria and milestones in computational thinking. The decomposition process, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithms are all highlighted in the student worksheets development stage. Expert validation and limited trials are used in the evaluation step. Student responses and learning outcomes are classified as good and practicable to be used as a source of learning in learning activities based on the results of the validation.
