dc.description.abstractThis study aims to reveal the impact of using the digital game Minecraft: Education Edition in teaching geographical features in social studies on the achievement and spatial perception skills of 5th grade students. The research adopts a sequential explanatory mixed-method design. Quantitative data was collected using selfassessment and teacher assessment forms on spatial perception skills, and an achievement test developed by the researchers. Qualitative data was gathered through interviews. The study found that using Minecraft led to an increase in students' achievement and their skills in examining space. This study provides valuable insights for educators and curriculum developers, offering a potential pathway to enhance students' understanding of geographical concepts and spatial perception skills through interactive digital tools such as Minecraft: Education Edition in the future. © 2024, IGI Global.
