Abstract: The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic shows that schools must adapt new approaches in order to continue to provide teaching and learning at schools. To achieve this, students must be equipped to learn in a multifaceted, multitasking, and technology-driven world, and the utilization of web 2.0 tools has been revealed as important in this endeavor. The aim of this study is to introduce an educational website enriched with web 2.0 tools designed for science teaching and in addition, to show the effect on achievement and motivation. Therefore, the effect of an educational website supported by web 2.0 tools on achievement and motivation was investigated in a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group. The unit of “Force and Energy” was presented through an educational website enriched by Web 2.0 tools. The positive effects of using the website on the achievement and motivation of the students in the results brought to mind the use of an educational website supported by web 2.0 tools as an alternative or support to online training during the COVID 19 pandemic.
