A pedagogy researcher at a university wanted to evaluate undergraduate student satisfaction with newly introduced virtual reality (VR) physics laboratory simulations. The researcher conducted a pilot study to investigate the attitudes of students in the first-year Physics cohort.
The researcher decided to focus on the students' attitudes towards the immersive 3D equipment-manipulation tasks and the real-time error feedback system provided by the simulation software.
The researcher designed an anonymous digital questionnaire to collect this feedback. All participants completed the questionnaire immediately following their first practical session using the VR software.
The researcher wanted to find out about the students' attitudes towards the immersive 3D equipment-manipulation tasks. This is one closed question that was asked:
To what extent do you agree that the immersive 3D equipment-manipulation tasks helped you to understand the physical laboratory setup? (Tick one box.)
- Strongly agree
- Agree
- Disagree
- Strongly disagree
Write an open question that could have been asked instead of this closed question.
