Abstract

Addressing the challenges of limited experimental resources under the requirement of inclusive education for all students, as well as the evolving characteristics of learners in the era of digitalization and intelligent technologies, this study proposes a methodology for designing virtual physics experiments in secondary education driven by mathematical and physical simulation outcomes. Focusing on the "Force and Motion" unit from the Grade 8 curriculum published by Jiangsu Science and Technology Press, the research examines the additional resource requirements and the scope of experimental content. Furthermore, it analyzes how this approach effectively cultivates key competencies, integrates advanced educational paradigms, and employs innovative technological tools to enhance teaching and learning.
