Fundamental Design of Flood Management Educational Games Using Virtual Reality Technology

Abstract

The geographical location of Makassar, which is included in the lowlands and the increasingly uncertain climate change, makes this area included in the flood map in Indonesia. Almost every year, the city of Makassar is haunted by the potential for flooding in several vulnerable areas such as the sub-districts of Manggala, Wajo and Bontoala and the Antang National Housing, every disaster in the city of Makassar is handled by the Regional Office. Disaster Management Agency. So far, flood disaster preparedness is still not responsive to a disaster, most of them sit around waiting for help, and the community lacks understanding of what to do when a flood disaster hits them. This study aims to design a system that provides education to the public about flood disaster management using virtual reality technology. This research method uses Virtual Reality technology based on educational games. The result of this research is the existence of a flood control simulation system that can help the people of Makassar understand what to do in the event of a flood and with virtual reality-based, educational game technology providing a more attractive appearance. So that people are happy and happy to use educational games. Based on black-box testing, valid results were obtained for all functional tests on the flood prevention educational game simulation system, especially in Makassar. Then based on the results of a questionnaire to determine the system's benefits obtained from fifty respondents consisting of children, adolescents and adults, the outcomes received 91.3% stated very useful, 5.2% useful, 3.5% quite helpful and 0% useless.

“…This research uses the waterfall method approach of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) modelling design. UML is a visual modelling method used to design object-oriented systems and has become an industry standard for visualizing, designing, and documenting software (Chen et al, 2019;Rismayani et al, 2022). Although not a programming language, UML allows direct mapping of the created models to various object-oriented programming languages such as Java (Jang et al, 2024).…”

Development of a Database of Educational Games Applicable to Production Engineering

“…As defined, educational games need to focus on teaching a specific subject, expanding concepts, or enhancing the skills and attitudes that players/students seek and acquire during the game [42], [43]. By using games as strategies to facilitate student learning, teachers are also provided with a more transparent evaluation process.…”

Design of Prototype Model Augmented Reality-Based Disaster Mitigation Learning Media as a Disaster Education Facility

“…Pendidikan merupakan pembelajaran bertujuan meningkatkan keterampilan melalui pelatihan, pengajaran, dan penelitian berperan aktif menumbuhkan potensi pengendalian diri, kecerdasan, kepribadian, serta siap untuk terjun langsung ke masyarakat. Pendidikan kebencanaan menjadi bagian kurikulum pada pendidikan anak usia yang bertujuan memberikan nilai edukasi akan pentingnya menjaga lingkungan sekitar, adapun beberapa aspek, yaitu sikap, pengetahuan, dan keterampilan dituntut agar memahami dan mengetahui penyebab bencana atau kerusakan lingkungan (Rismayani et al, 2022). Perilaku manusia yang menggunakan sumber daya alam menjadi salah satu faktor merusak lingkungan dan menimbulkan bencana alam.…”
