The study aimed to analyze the conceptual understanding and motivation to learning physics in schools with the help of livewire software. An experimental method with a post-test-only nonequivalent control group design was used to examine Ohm’s Law. The sample for the study consisted of a control class with 36 students and an experimental group comprising 37 learners drawn from a population of 145 through random sampling. Data collection tools used were tests and questionnaires to collect data, which was analyzed using the non-parametric statistics technique. The results showed that the livewire software made students’ understanding of Ohm’s Law concepts better compared to learning without the help of the software. Livewire software can motivate students to study Ohm’s Law.
