Abstract This study focused on the use of computer simulations as an instructional tool in a collaborative learning environment. It assessed the engagement and academic achievement in science of Grade 10 students in a collaborative learning environment at Central Mindanao University Laboratory High School. It aimed to: a) ascertain the level of students’ engagement in science when exposed to CSCLE and those in non-CSCLE in terms of (i) cognitive, (ii) behavioral, (iii) emotional, and (iv) social engagement; (b) determine the level of the academic achievement of students when exposed to computer simulations in a collaborative learning environment (CSCLE) and those in non-CSCLE; c) find out the engagement of students in science when exposed to CSCLE and those in non-CSCLE and (d) compare the academic achievement of students when exposed to CSCLE and those in non-CSCLE. This research used a quasi-experimental research design. Results were analyzed using independent t-test to examine if there is a significant difference in the students’ engagement in science when exposed to CSCLE and those in non-CSCLE and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) to investigate if there is a significant difference in the students’ academic achievement in science when exposed to CSCLE and those in non-CSCLE. The results indicate that computer simulation in a collaborative learning environment serves as a dynamic tool for improving the learning environment by encouraging engagement, collaboration, participation, and communication among students, which strengthens their knowledge and skills and increases their performance outcomes. The results demonstrated students’ engagement in the cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and social domains, with a high level of engagement when exposed to CSCLE. Students’ academic achievement when exposed to CSCLE was in average level on their posttest from a very low level on their pretest. Significant difference was also observed, which indicates that there is a significant difference in the engagement level of students’ when exposed to CSCLE and those in non-CSCLE. By the results shown, it is observed that as the engagement of the students rises, their academic achievement also progresses. With this, it is recommended to utilize computer simulation as an instructional tool in a collaborative learning environment.
