6. Research
Q1:
Does
this
game
lead
to
similar/equal
learning
results
as
tradi5onal
methods?
Are
there
any
disadvantages
for
the
learners
who
used
this
game?
Q2:
Are
the
playing
school
children
learn
the
correct
federal
states
in
an
incident
way?
On
the
basis
of
our
ques5ons
we
formed
hypotheses,
which
we
carefully
proved
by
using
the
iGeo
Applica5on:
H1:
Playing
this
game
leads
to
at
least
equivalent
learning
results
as
the
tradi5onal
method
–
there
is
no
disadvantage
for
the
learners
who
used
this
game.
H2:
The
info
box
gives
the
student
an
instant
feedback
which
leads
to
an
incidental
learning
effect
of
the
federal
states
of
Austria
where
the
places
are
located.
