Abstract

This study compares the effectiveness of using virtual laboratories (Tinkercad) and basic practical tools in enhancing students’ understanding oflogic gate concepts. A quasi-experimental method with a pre-test and post-test design was applied to two groups of Physics Education students enrolled in the Basic Electronics II course during the even semester of 2025. Data were collected through multiple-choice tests and analyzed usingnormality, homogeneity, t-test, and N-Gain analyses. Results showed that both groups experienced improved understanding after treatment. However, the group using a combination of virtual laboratories and basic practical tools achieved a greater improvement than the group using onlyvirtual laboratories. The N-Gain value for the virtual laboratory group was 0.47 (moderate), while the combination group reached 0.78 (high) with an effectiveness of 77.62% (effective category). The t-test indicated a significant difference between the two groups. Therefore, combining virtual laboratories with basic practical tools is more effective for improving students’ understanding of logic gate concepts and can serve as acomprehensive learning approach in physics education, particularly for Logic Gate topics.
