| Summary: | <p>This study aims to develop Synthetic Pathways of Organic Compounds (COPS) and</p><p>investigate matriculation students perceptions towards the board game. The research</p><p>employed the developmental design based on ADDIE model. A total of 171</p><p>respondents participated in this study where data were gathered via four types of</p><p>questionnaire. The needs analysis survey on 36 chemistry educators revealed 86.1% of</p><p>them required or had intention to use GBL in their organic chemistry lessons and 91.7%</p><p>agreed on suitability of GBL for the same purpose. After designing and developing</p><p>COPS, a questionnaire was administered among five experts whom averagely scored</p><p>90.8% of agreement on its validity. Pilot study on 30 respondents showed high</p><p>reliability coefficient ( = 0.993). One hundred and five matriculation students strongly</p><p>agreed that COPS has positive impact on learning organic synthetic pathways with high</p><p>mean scores for all the five constructs. Findings showed mean scores and standard</p><p>deviations for goals, board design, board organisation, playability, and usability were</p><p>M=4.46; SD=0.707, M=4.42; SD=0.745, M=4.31; SD=0.811, M=4.46; SD=0.747, and</p><p>M=4.37; SD=0.770 respectively. In conclusion, COPS was perceived as a useful</p><p>learning tool for organic synthetic pathways. The study implies COPS would be able to</p><p>offer more fun and joyful learning environment in teaching and learning of the topic.</p> |
