A Descriptive Study on the Students’ Responses to Learning Through an On-Line Agricultural Simulation Game

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate students' responses to learning through an on-line agricultural simulation game. Four hundred and fifty agricultural engineering students, studying at three different universities with four grades in Turkey, participated in the study. The data collected from the questionnaires were analysed by calculating frequencies of responses for the demographics and multiple-choice questions. To determine the differences among universities and grades Chi-square statistics were used. The results reveal that a majority of the surveyed students significantly want to play such a game at least one hour per day and they thought that it may be useful for their educational success.
