| Abstract: | This study investigated how history education can be transferred to the virtual world in line with aesthetic and reality concerns through computer-aided design programs and how this transfer can contribute to the instructiveness of historical science. The study hypothesized that advanced technologies enable more effective visualization of historical events and places and that historical knowledge transferred to the virtual environment makes the use of past knowledge more accessible and interactive in future educational approaches. In the study, historical and formal analysis methods from qualitative research methods were used. In the first stage, a literature review was conducted and geographical and period characteristics were used as data in the design phase. In the second stage, historical information was transferred to the digital environment and presented using gamification and interaction techniques. The theoretical basis of the study; It is supported by the Digital Game-Based Learning Theory proposed by Zin, Jaafar, and Yue and Richard E. Mayer's Media and Learning Theory. The findings of the study reveal that it is possible to revitalize historical science in the digital environment thanks to technological developments and computer- aided programs and that this method can make significant contributions to the field of education. The contributions and advantages of digital methods over traditional methods were evaluated, and as a result of the study, it was seen that history and technology work in an interdisciplinary, effective and integrated manner. This research offers a unique contribution to history education with its interactive and game-based structure. The application model designed within the scope of this study was experienced by 28 students. As a result of the findings obtained from the survey, it was determined that game-based learning and virtual environment models have a positive contribution to history education.
