| Abstract | This Python simulation learning activity for estimating the area between curves was created to teach students how to simulate problems with deterministic behavior, which is another important step in developing students' simulation modeling competence. The target group of twenty-eight grade 12 students learned to use the Python program to estimate the area between curves using a developed hands-on simulation. After the activity was completed, the students' competency in simulation for estimating the area between curves using Python was evaluated. The results of the evaluation indicate that the designed activity can improve the desired performance. In addition, the evaluation results revealed that students' enjoyment, value, interest, and self-efficacy in performing activities led to positive outcomes. The findings of this study point to a strategy that interested teachers can use to improve students' basic competency and knowledge for learning about simulation modelling further. |
