Prof. Premanand Krishnan, University of Nottingham Malaysia, Malaysia (Presented at the International Conference on Research in Education and Science (ICRES) which took place on April 28 2025 – 1 May 2025, in Antalya, TURKEY (https://www.2025.icres.net/) and at the International Conference on Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology (ICEMST) (https://www.2025.icemst.com/) organized by the International Society for Technology, Education and Science (ISTES) http://www.istes.org). This study investigates the impact of simulation-based learning on student engagement and comprehension in STEM education for Foundation in Science (FiS) students. Focused on modules such as Fundamentals of Programming, Communication Network, Chemistry, and Biology, the research aims to bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and practical application. Traditional lecture-based methods often fail to engage students deeply with complex concepts, leading to challenges in retention and understanding. Simulation-based learning offers an interactive and hands-on approach, providing students with opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios.The study addresses the challenge of limited engagement and performance in STEM subjects at the Foundation level. Traditional methods, such as lectures and practical sessions, are valuable but often lack the interactive elements necessary to foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills. This study explores the potential of simulation tools to improve engagement, enhance comprehension, and motivate students to connect theoretical knowledge with its practical applications.The research methodology involves conducting workshops where Foundation students use simulation tools tailored to specific topics. Surveys are administered before and after the workshops to assess student engagement and understanding, comparing the effectiveness of simulation-based learning with traditional teaching methods. Data from these surveys will provide insights into how simulations impact students’ ability to grasp and apply complex concepts.Expected results include higher levels of engagement, improved comprehension, and enhanced motivation among students who participate in simulation-based learning activities. The study aims to demonstrate that simulations can significantly enhance the learning experience in STEM disciplines, encouraging broader adoption of these tools in teaching practices.
