Artificial intelligence-integrated interactive multimedia to improve conceptual understanding in eighth-grade science learning

This study assessed the effectiveness of interactive multimedia connected to Artificial Intelligence (AI) in improving the concept understanding of eighth-grade students. The research method used was an experimental design with a Pretest-Posttest design model. Data were collected through observation of student participation, evaluation of concept understanding before and after treatment, and survey of students' responses to learning. Data analysis was carried out using a paired T-test, which was conducted using descriptive statistical analysis, namely calculating the mean, median, and standard deviation from the results of the pretest and posttest tests. The study found significant improvement in students' concept understanding and participation after utilizing AI-based interactive multimedia. This research implied the use of AI in interactive multimedia is an effective way to improve the quality of science education in high schools. The use of AI-based interactive multimedia provided a new approach that improved students' understanding of science concepts.
