    Abstract
    This study aims to develop an educational web application ‘WebGSIM’ for the topic of Gravitation and evaluate its usability among
    form 4 physics students in Jelutong District. This is a developmental research design study and WebGSIM was developed based on
    ADDIE instructional design model. ADDIE model has five phases which are analysis, design, development, implementation, and
    evaluation. After development, WebGSIM was validated by two experts. The research sample consisted of 67 form 4 physics students
    that was selected through cluster random sampling from all the students in Jelutong district. This research used a usability questionnaire
    of 20 items that was adapted from Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to evaluate the usability of WebGSIM. The data was
    analysed using descriptive statistics of mean and standard deviation. The data from two experts showed that the newly developed
    WebGSIM had a good validity with 100% of agreement. The mean for the constructs of perceived ease of use (M=4.43, SD=0.664),
    perceived usefulness (M=4.64, SD=0.532), attitude (M=4.69, SD=0.535), behavioural intention (M=4.62, SD=0.682) and self-efficacy
    (M=4.45, SD=0.622). An average mean score of 4.57 was obtained from the result which showed that WebGSIM had a good usability.
    In conclusion, WebGSIM is valid and reliable, with a good level of usability. For implication, WebGSIM is suitable to be implemented
    into classroom because WebGSIM can help students to visualize abstract concept in Gravitation topic by using 3D simulation.

    Innovation & Benefits


    There are two benefits of WebGSIM. The first benefit of WebGSIM is to help students to visualize abstract concept in Gravitation
    topic by using 3D simulation. The second benefit of WebGSIM is to increase students' motivation level in learning physics by
    adding interactivity in WebGSIM.

    Conclusion
    The educational web application, WebGSIM was successfully developed by using ADDIE model. Based on expert validation and pilot
    study, WebGSIM was valid and reliable. The usability study showed that WebGSIM had a high level of usability. Therefore, WebGSIM is
    suitable to implement into regular teaching and learning process because it can help students to visualize abstract concept in
    Gravitation topic and increase students’ motivation level in learning physics.
