Abstract


This study examines the scientific studies on the use of virtual environments and simulation programs in teacher training programs. Firstly, a search was made in the Web of Science database using the keywords simSchool and TeachLive. Four of the studies obtained as a result of the screening were excluded for various reasons (such as duplicate or off-topic publication) and the study was conducted with 22 scientific publications. The research results showed that virtual environments and simulations, which are widely and effectively used in many disciplines, also have a crucial potential in teaching and training. Most of the studies subject to analysis suggested that the use of virtual environments and simulation in education has positive effects such as self-confidence, time management, and classroom management. The research findings were discussed within the framework of the relevant literature, and suggestions were made.
