What this trial studies
This study examines the impact of an educational escape game on students' motivation, academic self-efficacy, and achievement levels in an elderly care program. Participants will be divided into two groups: one engaging in the escape game and the other using a traditional question-answer method. The study aims to determine if the escape game leads to higher motivation, self-efficacy, and success compared to the control method. Data will be collected through various scales and tests to assess these outcomes.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could enhance student engagement and learning outcomes in educational settings.
How similar studies have gone: While similar educational interventions have shown promise, this specific approach using an escape game is relatively novel.
