This study aimed to analyze the learning experience and retention of physical science students with multimedia resources. This quantitative research utilized a descriptive-correlation design to assess the data collected from 133 senior high school students of Valencia City, Bukidnon, Philippines. The study’s findings revealed that engagement and motivation, learning styles and preferences, and technical aspects of the learning experiences have an overall score of 4.06, which signifies that the students have a great learning experience with multimedia integration in physical science class. It also revealed that the students’ retention improved with the help of multimedia resources. Additionally, it also revealed that there is a significant relationship between learning experience and retention in physical science classes aided with multimedia. Multimedia plays a significant role in enhancing the learning experience and retention of physical science concepts for students. This leads to a deeper understanding of complex physical science concepts and improved knowledge retention compared to text-based methods. As research continues to explore the optimal design and implementation of multimedia in physical science education, it holds great promise for fostering a more engaging and effective learning environment for students.
