Abstract
The RC Solar Power Hovercraft is a teaching aid model designed for teaching Physics and can be used in the classroom during lessons. It uses the concepts of Physics which are the Principle of Momentum Eternity and Newton's Second Law of Motion. This innovation is designed to improve the shortcomings of the first design. The first design, which used a battery to move the hovercraft, caused a huge waste because the battery could not last longer. To overcome this problem, we have come up with a new hovercraft design that uses solar energy. The objectives of this study are to develop an innovative product that can be used as a teaching aid model, helps improve students’ understanding, and can be marketed as a STEM project kit. We were able to create this model at a cost of only RM 71.40. distributed the survey form to 25 respondents, who are students of Sultan Ahmad Shah Vocational College. The analysis revealed the following results: 100% of the respondents agreed that this innovative product can be used as a teaching aid model; 100% agreed that the product helps to improve students' understanding; and 92% agreed that this innovative product could be marketed as a STEM project kit. In conclusion, the RC Solar Power Hovercraft meets the objectives of the study, as it serves effectively as a teaching aid during lessons, enhances students' understanding, and has the potential for marketing as a STEM project kit model.
