Abstract

This paper presents the development of a web-based educational platform that applies gamification principles to enhance the learning of thermal concepts in the International General Certificate of Secondary Education’s (IGCSE) physics curriculum. Through interactive simulations and engaging challenges, students are encouraged to explore complex thermal phenomena in a fun and motivating environment. The platform aims to improve comprehension and fosters collaboration among peers, making the learning experience more dynamic and enjoyable. The platform is designed to improve students’ understanding of heat-related topics by integrating simulations, real-time feedback, quizzes, and motivational features such as experience points and rewards. The system was built using the Game Development Life Cycle model, which includes initiation, pre-production, production, and testing phases. A pilot evaluation involving 149 students aged 16 and 17 demonstrated that the platform is user-friendly, promotes engagement, and supports conceptual clarity in thermal physics.
