OMG! is a serious game that represents a real-world system and is used for the purpose of learning and problem-solving. It is the first customizable serious simulation board game designed to help managers and leaders learn about various aspects of operations management in a simulated production line. In OMG! participants are immersed in a simulated learning environment that is risk free yet challenging at the same time. This environment creates an ideal place for testing decisions and learning from feedback without the costly disruption of a real system.
This book provides tips to teachers for moving toward active learning by using simulation and gaming. The book is a rare reference for teachers who wish to initiate active learning by applying many real experiences from world experts in simulation and gaming. This cumulative wisdom comes from cutting-edge trials reported at the 49th International Simulation and Gaming Association’s annual conference in Thailand 9–13 July 2018. The importance of changing teachers’ one-way lecture approach to that of active learning has been commonly understood for several decades and has been promoted especially in recent years in Asian universities. Simulation and gaming meets the requirements of such teaching programs, especially for active learning, but there are few books or references on how to gamify a lecture. This book serves as a guide to facilitate that change. The author recognizes the duty to provide readers with fixed directions toward simulation and gaming in the next generation, which have still not been fully elucidated. Developing a simulation and gaming culture and making it sustainable in the next decade are the purpose of this book.

This book offers a comprehensive and systematic historical assessment of Jakarta’s water management practices from the colonial era through the early years of the Indonesian republic and Jakarta’s emergence as a sprawling ...

Seringkali kita berpikir bahwa bermain dan belajar adalah dua hal yang tidak bisa disatukan. “Jangan main terus nak, lebih banyak lah belajar agar mendapatkan nilai yang tinggi di sekolah,” mungkin itu adalah ucapan yang pernah dilontarkan orang tua Anda ketika dulu masih duduk di bangku sekolahan.

Salah satu game populer tentang membangun dan menata kota, SimCity, ternyata digunakan oleh sekolahan (kelas 6-8) di Amerika Serikat sebagai media pembelajaran. Platform yang bernama SimCity Edu tersebut mengajak pelajar untuk memahami berbagai permasalahan di kota dan cara men...

Diterbitkannya buku kumpulan karangan para dosen sangat penting untuk memperkaya mutu perkuliahan dan syukur apabila mampu mengkritisi serta memberikan alternatif solusi berbagai persoalan aktual ekonomi dan bisnis di Indonesia khususnya di era pandemi Covid-19. Saya berharap bahwa di era pandemi Covid-19 tatkala para dosen lebih banyak berada di rumah karena proses belajarmengajar dilakukan secara virtual (daring), para dosen lebih kreatif dan inovatif menerbitkan karya-karya ilmiahnya. Dengan demikian, mempublikasikan karyakarya ilmiah bagi para dosen sesungguhnya merupakan sebuah keharusan, bukan semata-mata karena memperingati dies natalis. Saya juga berharap agar apa yang dilakukan oleh FEB UWG untuk menerbitkan buku kumpulan karya dosen dapat diikuti oleh para dosen di fakultas-fakultas yang lain
