PhET (Physics Education Technology) interactive simulation is a website-based simulation developed by simulation experts from the University of Colorado Boulder to help students learn physics through simulated learning. This research aims to examine students’ achievement after utilized simulated learning and teaching. A module and teaching plan have been specifically designed by researchers to be integrated with PhET simulation in the students’ teaching and learning processes. This research utilized a quasi-experimental design where pre-and post-tests are multiple choice type of test involved 30 students in the experimental group (using simulated learning) and 30 students in the control group (using conventional learning). The results showed that there were significant differences in pre-and post-tests means scores for the experimental group. On the other hand, the control group showed no significant differences. This proved that PhET simulation, with well-designed module and teaching plan can improve students’ achievement in physics.

Some practices are barbaric, atrocious, backward, immoral, commoditization and an abusive violation of the sexual and human rights of the powerless. Widowhood rites are performed at the fresh funeral and during the final funeral rites. Widows prefer to be inherited by their grandsons so that they are free to choose a man of their choice and still hold on to their deceased husband assets. The Talensi widow would strangle a goat and part of the skin is used to cover the private of the dead for burial. The Nabdams would slaughter a sheep and an elder will slaughter it. In both cases older women served as the enforcers and custodians of such practices. The purpose of this study was to examine widowhood rites practices among the people of Talensi and Nabdam in the Upper East Region of Ghana. The study employed ethnography research method. Purposive sampling technique was used to sample twenty (20) widows from Talensi and Nabdam. The study recommended that Ghana's widows need to lead in the reporting of violations of their rights to the appropriate state institutions responsible and follow up to ensure justice is delivered. Non-governmental Organizations and Community-based organizations which are advocating for the abolition of widowhood rites should collaborate with traditional authorities to modify the practices.
