Students´ experience in the "Virtual Stock Exchange" game

This paper presents the results of an empirical survey of student’s opinion of the "Virtual Stock Exchange" game. 23 out of 48 students enrolled in the Investment Analysis course at the BDIB program completed a questionnaire. The conducted research is a continuation, i.e. an extension of the already existing research that we conduct every few years among students who take the same course in the Croatian program at the Faculty of Economics & Business - Zagreb. The survey questionnaire sought to determine whether participation in virtual trading would stimulate them more for investment research ; how much they used what they learned during the semester in the "Virtual Stock Exchange" game ; whether they considered the project "Virtual Stock Exchange" useful. The results show that 65.22% of students think that participation in "Virtual Stock Exchange" game is very useful, and 34, 78% of them find it useful, 73, 91% mark that virtual game considerably stimulated them to study and make additional research of Investment analysis and 69, 57% of them used the knowledge acquired on the Investment analysis course in virtual trading. This paper will contribute to the existing literature on the same or similar topic. It is expected that the results of the research will be used to improve the project "Virtual Stock Exchange" and to promote its educational purpose.
