Özet: Since many of project based learning (PBL) cases performed in Science & Mathematics fields, the purpose of this study is to specify the contributions of developing computer assisted project for the teaching process in Human Computer Interaction (HCI) course teaching with the support of pedagogical agent assisted learning environment. This study attempts to examine the effects of PBL approach in pedagogical agent assisted learning environment on students’ attitudes and achievements in human computer interaction (HCI) course. Project-Based Learning Attitude Scale, Pedagogical Agent Satisfaction Survey and Perception of Course Content Attitude Scale were applied to students in order to determine the students’ achievements in and attitudes towards the activities of pedagogical agent assisted PBL approach. Furthermore, review tests were applied twice as pre-test and post-test before and after the pedagogical agent assisted learning. As a result, the paper indicates that pedagogical agent assisted PBL approach affects students’ achievements and attitudes in HCI course in a good way.
