چکیده

پیشینه و اهداف: انگیزش به­عنوان یک عامل محرک­اساسی در یادگیری، نقشی بنیادی در موفقیت­تحصیلی دانشجویان ایفا می‌کند. به­نظر می­رسد دانشجویان دانشکده­های معماری، انگیزش لازم جهت آموختن دروس­نظری و به‌ویژه دروس­فنی و ساختمانی را ندارند. با توجه ­به تفاوت­ماهوی رشته­معماری و به­تبع آن، آموزش آن با سایر رشته­ها، هدف پژوهش­حاضر، ­بررسی به­کارگیری شبیه­ساز رایانه­ای به­عنوان ابزاری متحول‌کننده در چشم‌انداز پویای حوزه­آموزش و تأثیر آن در انگیزش دانشجویان معماری است.
روش‌ها‌: نوع تحقیق از نظر هدف، کاربردی بوده و از لحاظ گردآوری داده­ها در زمره تحقیقات شبه­آزمایشی با گروه­گواه محسوب می­شود. ابزار گردآوری داده‌ها، پرسش‌نامه هارتر بود که پس از بررسی پایایی و انجام تحلیل­های مقدماتی و پیش­نیاز با آزمون­کوواریانس تحلیل شد. جامعه­آماری تحقیق دانشجویان درس ساختمان 2 دانشگاه آزاد ارومیه بوده، که در دوگروه آزمون 30 نفر و کنترل 30 نفر، به­گونه­ای انتخاب شدند که میانگین نمرات هر دو گروه در آزمون مقدماتی یکسان باشد.
یافته‌ها: براساس یافته­ها می‌توان گفت یکى از اصلی­ترین عوامل بروز عملکرد و رفتار انسان، انگیزش است. انگیزش، فرد را به­جنبش وا می­دارد و در محیط­هاى آموزشی هم­بستگى مستقیم با یادگیری و یادداری و پیشرفت­تحصیلی دانشجویان دارد و به انگیزش درونی و بیرونی تقسیم می­شود؛ یافته­های حاصل از تحلیل­آماری، فرض پژوهش مبنی­بر تأثیر استفاده از شبیه­ساز بر انگیزش دانشجویان درس ساختمان 2 را تصدیق می­کند. در بنیان انگیزش­درونی، تفاوت قابل­توجه و معناداری میان گروه­آزمون و گروه­کنترل وجود دارد. افزایش چشم­گیر نمرات، انگیزه­درونی پس­آزمون نسبت­به نمرات درونی پیش­آزمون در گروه­آزمایش و همچنین اختلاف حداقلی در نمرات پیش­آزمون و نمرات پس­آزمون گروه­گواه بیانگر تأثیر استفاده از این فناوری در افزایش انگیزش­درونی دانشجویان است. در مؤلفه انگیزش­بیرونی نیز دوگروه آزمایش و کنترل دارای تفاوت­معناداری در پس­آزمون هستند. انگیزش­بیرونی دانشجویانی که به­روش شبیه­ساز رایانه­ای آموزش دیده­اند، نسبت­به گروهی که به­روش معمول آموزش دیده­اند، متفاوت است و نیز بالاتربودن میانگین نمرات گروه­آزمون در پس­آزمون، افزایش این انگیزش در گروه­آزمون را نشان می‌دهد.
نتیجه‌گیری: بهره­گیری از شبیه­ساز رایانه­ای در آموزش دروس­فنی، منجر به افزایش قابل توجه انگیزش دانشجویان معماری می­شود. افزایش قابل­ملاحظه نمرات پایان­ترم دانشجویانی که از این فناوری استفاده کردند نسبت­به گروه کنترل، مؤید تأثیرمثبت استفاده از آن است. کاربرد آن، هنگامی اثربخش است که اصول و مفاهیم ذهنی و پایه به­وسیله روش­های دیگر آموزش داده، و سپس برای آموزش­تکمیلی از شبیه­سازی استفاده شود و به­طور کلی، هنگامی مؤثرتر است که همراه با روش­های سنتی به­کار برده شود؛ یعنی شبیه­سازی به­عنوان مکملی برای روش­های سنتی به­حساب می­آید.

چکیده [English]

Background and Objectives: Motivation plays a fundamental role in the academic success of architecture students. It appears that students in architecture colleges lack the necessary motivation to learn theoretical courses, especially technical and construction-related courses. Given the nature of the architecture field and its distinctiveness in education compared to other disciplines, the goal of this research was to investigate the use of computer simulation as a transformative tool in the dynamic landscape of education and its impact on the motivation of architecture students.
Methods: This applied research employed a quasi-experimental design with a control group for data collection. In order to collect the required data, Harter questionnaire was used, which was analyzed for reliability and subjected to a preliminary analysis of covariance with a covariance test. The population of the study consisted of students of Building Construction II course at Urmia Azad University. After conducting a preliminary test with students in the experimental group and 30 students in the control group, they were selected in a way that the average scores of both groups in the mentioned test were equal.
Findings: Based on the research findings, it can be said that one of the main factors in human performance and behavior is motivation. Motivation leads individuals to move and act, and in educational environments, motivation has a direct correlation with the learning, memorization, and academic progress of students. The more motivation there is, the more academic progress will be made. Motivation is divided into two components: intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation; the statistical analysis confirmed the research hypothesis regarding the impact of using computer simulation on the motivation of students in the course of building construction II. In the realm of intrinsic motivation, there was a significant and meaningful difference between the experimental group and the control group. A noticeable increase in intrinsic motivation grades of the post-test compared to those of the pre-test was observed in the experimental group, and there was also a minimal difference in pre-test and post-test scores in the control group, indicating the effect of using this technology in increasing the intrinsic motivation of architecture students. In the extrinsic motivation component, the experimental and control groups showws a significant difference in post-test scores. The extrinsic motivation of students who were trained using computer simulation technology differed from those trained using conventional methods, and the higher average scores of the experimental group in the post-test demonstrated an increase in motivation among the students in this course.
Conclusion: The use of computer simulation in teaching technical courses in the field of architecture led to a significant increase in motivation among architecture students. The noticeable improvement in the final exam grades of students who used this technology for learning compared to those of the control group confirmed the positive impact of using computer simulation. The effectiveness of simulation materializes when the mental principles and basics of courses are taught through other methods, and then simulation is used for supplementary teaching. In general, it is more effective when it is used alongside traditional methods- that is, simulation serves as a complement to traditional teaching methods in courses.
Methods: This applied research employs a quasi-experimental design with a control group for data collection. The Harter questionnaire serves as the primary data collection tool, with analysis conducted using the analysis of covariance test. The study targets students enrolled in Building Construction II at Urmia Azad University. Two groups of 30 students each are formed with statistically equivalent average scores to ensure comparability.

Findings: Based on the findings, it can be said that motivation mobilizes individuals and has direct correlation with learning, memory, and academic progression in educational environments. Motivation is divided into intrinsic and extrinsic, as the statistical analysis confirms the research hypothesis regarding the impact of using simulations on students' motivation in the building construction II course. Intrinsic motivation shows a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. A significant increase in post-test intrinsic motivation scores compared to pre - test scores in the experimental group, as well as a minimal difference in pre - test and post - test scores in the control group, indicate the effect of using this technology in increasing students' intrinsic motivation. Additionally, in the extrinsic motivation component, there is a significant difference in the post - test between the experimental and control groups. The extrinsic motivation of students who were taught through computer simulations differs from those taught in the conventional method, with higher average scores in the post - test in the experimental group indicating an increase in this motivation.

Conclusion: The use of computer simulation in technical education leads to a significant increase in motivation among architecture students. A notable improvement in the end - term grades of students who utilized this technology compared to the control group supports the positive impact of its use. Its effectiveness is evident when mental principles and concepts are taught through other methods first and then supplemented with simulation for further learning. Overall, it is most effective when used in conjunction with traditional methods, serving as a complementary tool to conventional approaches.: The use of computer simulation in technical education leads to a significant increase in motivation among architecture students.
