Project Details
Description
The aim of this project is to assess users’ experiences engaging with virtually simulated clients in psychology training. Specifically, we seek to investigate how the use of the virtual simulation influences students' understanding of course concepts, their level of interest and motivation, as well as their perceptions of the simulation's quality and relevance. Overall, the findings will contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the integration of virtual simulations in educational settings and provide evidence-based recommendations for their effective use in higher education environments.
