Summary: | 碩士 === 淡江大學 === 教育資料科學學系 === 82 === This study intends to explore the effects of computer
simulations on business education. Two modes of computerized
lessons are developed for this purpose. One is a simulation;
the other is a textbook-form lesson. The effects of these two
lessons are compared in terms of the learner''s performance in
decision making and knowledge retrival. This study has the
following findings: 1.There is no significant difference
between the experiment group and the control group in terms of
their decision- making skills performance. 2.There is no
significant difference between the experiment group and the
control group in terms of their knowledge retrival performance.
3.The experiment group think that the computer simulation is
highly challenging and motivating. Based on the above findings,
recommendations are provided regarding the designs and
operations of computer simulations, the instruments used to
evaluate the learning effects, and some issues that need to be
addressed in further research.
