Lesson: STELLA Software.


Assalamualaikum

For the next lesson, we have learnt about making simulation. Simulation is the imitation of the operation of a real world process or a system over time. The act of simulating something first requires that a model be developed, this model represents the key characteristics or behaviors of the selected physical or abstract system or process. By practicing simulation in the class, teacher and student are able to enhance the teaching and learning process. Simulation can help student to increase their understanding on what they have learnt especially when it involve an experiment. In the other hand, it will be more easy for teacher to explain certain experiment to her/his student.

In this lab, we have learnt to make an experiment or simulation using STELLA Software. STELLA Software is a software that allow teacher and student to conduct an experiment that taking a long period or time to be done. By using this software, we can get the data in short time and precise. To use the STELLA Software, first, we have to create an account before we sign in. Then, we have to download the software for windows. This free software are only able to use within 30 days. 



After download the software, there are several steps in order to conduct the experiment:


Step 1
Open the sample experiment.


Step 2
After click the experiment, it will appear like this. Then click "okay" to enter.


Step 3
After enter, click "stimulate" to graph our data of the experiment.


Step 4
The graph will be appear like this. This is a graph of normal.


Step 5
To vary the data, change the parameter right to the graph. 


Have a try. Thank you. (:
