The Education Revolution is now more interactive and less focused on the facts of written essays delivered through slide presentations or video stills. In the Education sector, the term interactive has a wide range of meanings. Students are no longer just listening and taking notes, but learning through hands-on activities, internet access, or Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality has a significant impact on their understanding and emotions. Science has lost popularity in recent years due to a lack of mastery. As a result, science education must employ modern delivery techniques to keep students interested in science. A study was conducted to assess students' ability to draw body diagrams involving forces acting on an object using Newton's Laws. The study's findings indicate that students require learning aids to improve their understanding of drawing free-body diagrams. As a result, a prototype of MyForce@FBD, as a learning tool with a gamification concept combined with an Augmented Reality application, has been developed to emphasise the basic concept of force and hands-on drawing. The main goal of this project was to improve students' drawing skills, starting with basic drawings and progressing to more complex drawings, in order to help students better understand a force acting on an object according to Newton's Law. This project's development is also a means of diversifying learning and teaching techniques in line with the IR4.0 Education revolution.
