Abstract

Constructing mathematical equations in physics often creates difficulties in students' learning process. Therefore, it is necessary to have technology-based simulations to understand physical phenomena. One technology that is easy to use for simulations in physics learning is the spreadsheet program. This study aims to use spreadsheet media to visualize the face-centered cubic (FCC) energy band using the tight-binding method and to compare the results with the JavaScript programming language. This paper succeeded in making visualization of face-centered cubic (FCC) energy band using a spreadsheet as an alternative to distance learning. The spreadsheet is easier to use because they do not use complicated programming languages like JavaScript. This paper shows the use of innovative learning media, spreadsheets, in materials courses. © 2022 Sociedad Mexicana de Fisica. All rights reserved.
