Abstract

Modern educational technologies offer various opportunities for learning and teaching complex and dynamic systems. One of these opportunities is the use of simulation in learning and teaching activities. The researches reveal that learning through simulation has positive effects on the learning process; however, it imposes a highly demanding cognitive load on learners. That is why, instructional supports could be used in order to solve this problem. In this study the effect of a simulation reinforced by two instructional supports – problem tasks and worked out examples – on learning increase, understanding (causal relations) and cognitive load among students were researched. A total of 180 students in 11th, 12th and 13th grades were the subjects of the study carried out in Schleswig Holstein, Germany. The data of the study reveal that there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of factual knowledge in general and factual knowledge in detail whereas a significant difference was found out in favor of the group which learned through worked out examples. There was no significant difference between the cognitive load of the two groups.

Özet

Modern eğitim teknolojileri karmaşık ve dinamik sistemlerin öğrenilmesinde ve öğretilmesinde çeşitli olanaklar sunmaktadır. Bu olanaklardan biri de öğretim sürecinde simulasyon kullanımıdır. Araştırmalar simulasyon yardımıyla öğrenmenin olumlu etkilerinin yanında öğrencilere daha fazla bilişşel yük getirdiğini de ortaya koymaktadır. Bu nedenle simulasyonlarda öğretici ögeler kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, solunum zinciri konusunda biri test soruları diğeri de çözümlü sorular olmak üzere iki farklı öğretici öge ile desteklenmiş bir simulasyonun öğrencilerin bilgi artışı, bilginin transferi ve bilişsel yüklerine etkileri araştırılmıştır. Almanya’nın Schleswig Holstein Eyaletinde yapılan araştırmaya 11, 12 ve 13. sınıfa devam eden toplam 180 öğrenci katılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre genel okul bilgisi ve detay bilgi artışında her iki grup arasında anlamlı bir fark tespit edilmezken, bilginin transferinde çözümlü sorularla öğrenen grubun lehine anlamlı bir fark tespit edilmiştir. Her iki grubun bilişsel yükleri arasında anlamlı bir fark tespit edilmemiştir.
