ABSTRACT

The laboratory is a crucial aspect of electrical engineering education. Through participation in laboratory activities, students can develop practical skills such as design, interaction, and creative thinking. Technological advancements have led to the introduction of virtual laboratories. This study explores the application of 3D virtual labs using video game technology and presents the results of a student satisfaction survey regarding the learning methods employed to support laboratory courses. A quasi-experimental research design with a single group pre-test and post-test was employed, involving seventy-three electrical engineering freshmen. The findings indicate that 3D virtual labs integrated with visual, text, and sound feedback features can enhance user satisfaction and support laboratory courses. The use of 3D virtual labs with video game technology applications that provide these feedback features can help electrical engineering students better understand electrical and electronic circuits, leading to positive student satisfaction. The suggested methodology could potentially be applied to similar educational software applications beyond electrical engineering, encompassing various fields of science and engineering.
