“…The studies included in the sample also addressed how board games can promote changes in learning processes in other aspects, including how these media tends to promote increased learners' engagement (Sousa, 2020a,c;Ezezika et al, 2021;Ghiga et al, 2021;Bressler et al, 2022;Sousa et al, 2022), satisfaction (Sarinho, 2019;Sousa, 2020a), and overall facilitating the learning process (Sarinho, 2019;Bernardo and González, 2021). According to Giles et al (2019, p. 9), board games tend to create learning opportunities that are described as "fun, social, flexible, and inexpensive. "…”

The unique characteristics of games have led scientific research to increasingly focus on their potential role in learning processes. Currently, their effectiveness in fostering experiential learning and skill acquisition in several areas is already supported by the existing evidence, mainly about the potential of digital games. Paradoxically, the current post-digital era seems to have led to a growing popularity of analog games. The present Systematic Literature Review aimed to map the existing literature on the potential of board, tabletop, or other analog games in learning processes. It intended to systematize the contemporary state of the art (2012–2022) around the pedagogical role of these games, their effectiveness, the promoted learning outcomes, the methodological aspects of the interventions, the used games—including mechanics and other characteristics—and the current discussions around inclusion and accessibility in analog game-based learning. Adopting the PRISMA methodology, we searched ACM Digital Library, EBSCO, ERIC, Scopus—Elsevier, and Web of Science databases, as well as other peer-reviewed “grey literature” sources. The search resulted in an initial sample of 2,741 articles that was then screened by inclusion and exclusion criteria previously defined according to the research objectives. We obtained a final sample of 45 articles. To formulate the mapping of existing research, these studies were analyzed using a combination of statistical, content, and critical analysis procedures. The obtained results support the role of board, tabletop, and other analog games in educational contexts—based on their educational potential—with a broad range of knowledge, cognitive, and psychological outcomes. The study also emphasized the relevance of these games in the promotion of soft skills and other aspects typically associated with meaningful learning, such as engagement, satisfaction, flexibility, and freedom of experimentation. However, important limitations were found in a fair amount of the pedagogical approaches studied, which can be mostly attributed to the low prevalence of modern board games that relate what is intended to be learned to aspects of game design and have little to no consideration of accessibility and inclusion aspects in these studies.

“…Several studies related to disaster simulation and situation awareness simulation have focused on varying areas, such as on learning emergency response preparedness using game design [13], use of virtual web-based tabletop exercises [14], simulations using the Situation Awareness Global Assessment Technique [15] and simulations using the Situation Awareness Rating Technique [16]. The present research focuses on simulation methods for disaster preparedness and the simulation assessment of situation awareness.…”

Development and Simulation of Cyberdisaster Situation Awareness Models

Cyberdisasters require an organization’s disaster team to be prepared. Disaster events are difficult to predict, but the impact of this risk on an organization is large. However, organizations sometimes struggle in being prepared for disaster situations. Here, awareness of disaster situations when analysing priority disasters (e.g., earthquakes and pandemics) and how to mitigate them can help an organization’s preparedness. Mitigation scenarios need to be determined and simulated so that a disaster team is ready to face disaster. Using Endsley’s situational awareness model and a tabletop exercise, this study aimed to help a disaster team determine cyberdisaster risk priority and assess a team’s preparedness for dealing with a cyberdisaster. The situation awareness model was divided into two stages: awareness of cyberdisaster situations and tabletop evaluations. Awareness of a disaster situation was carried out by determining the highest priority for disaster risk using the fuzzy failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) method. The results of the first study show that the high-risk category contains ransomware attacks during pandemics and earthquakes. The second study performed a tabletop simulation questionnaire survey of earthquakes and ransomware attacks during a pandemic for several disaster teams with 152 respondents. The results of the survey evaluation of the earthquakes and ransomware attacks simulation survey show that the effect factors of cyberdisaster simulation decisions are 95% system capability (p < 0.05), 90% knowledge (p < 0.05), and 90% awareness of a disaster situation (p < 0.05); these factors show the effect of a disaster team’s decision during a tabletop simulation. The novelty of this research lies in building a model for how an organizational process determines the priority of a cyberdisaster tabletop simulation and the factors that contribute to increasing a disaster team’s awareness in dealing with cyberattacks.
