“…Community and group models with a social diffusion perspective, such as diffusion of innovations (Oldenburg & Parcel, 2002;Parcel et al, 2003;Rogers, 2003), can be especially useful for guiding communication campaigns and mass media efforts to change health behavior. An innovation in the field of innovation diffusion is "the process by which an innovation is communicated through certain channels over time among members of a social system" (Rogers, 2003) to increase the impact of a given initiative.…”

“…Learning how to stay safe during natural disasters is crucial for being prepared for any eventuality. There is also a dearth of natural disasterthemed educational game production and research (Rosli et al, 2017). They went on to point out that while game-based learning is an engaging mode of education, there are surprisingly few games that focus on teaching people how to be safe during natural disasters.…”

“…According to Chou et al (2012), there has not been enough work put into creating and studying educational games that are based on a natural catastrophe scenario. In order to make learning about natural disaster preparedness more engaging, especially in Malaysia (Rosli et al, 2017), game-based learning is required. Educators agree that games are a great way to get knowledge across to youth of all learning styles and levels, therefore it makes sense that game tactics could be used to gauge youth's flood disaster preparedness (Clerveaux & Spence, 2009).…”

The frequency of floods in Malaysia is on the rise, leading to the loss of numerous lives and property. The youth population is particularly vulnerable and susceptible to the dangers posed by floods if they lack preparedness. Hence, they must enhance their level of preparedness to effectively mitigate the adverse consequences of floods. To address this need, the Master of Flood Preparedness (MOFP) was created to increase awareness of flood preparedness among young individuals. This game-based learning approach encompasses three key components: flood preparedness-related e-books, a game board, and play cards. These elements are integrated into a game format to deliver and enhance youth awareness of flood preparedness. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to assess the impact of the MOFP on increasing flood preparedness awareness among Malaysian youth. The study employs purposive sampling, with 120 individuals aged between 15 to 40 years old serving as participants. Through a descriptive approach, the study reveals that a majority of the youth respondents hold a positive perception of the MOFP's usability. Furthermore, a notable percentage of the participants acknowledged the user-friendliness of the MOFP. Moreover, their levels of awareness experienced a substantial increase following their exposure to the MOFP, underscoring its effectiveness in augmenting youth awareness regarding flood preparedness. It is anticipated that this game-based learning approach will prove beneficial to various institutions, including schools, universities, policymakers, and individual youth, as it offers a means to deliver and enhance flood preparedness awareness among the youth population.
