Problem solving adalah salah satu kemampuan untuk memecahkan sebuah masalah. Baik itu permasalahan komputasi maupun permasalahan sehari-hari. Kemampuan ini dapat memberikan penggunanya untuk menyelesaikan masalah dalam bentuk apapun. Karena pentingnya kemampuan tersebut, maka harus diterapkan sedari dini saat masih dalam usia sekolah. Kemampuan problem solving jika ditanamkan sejak dini, akan sangat membantu siswa-siswi dalam hal menyelesaikan tugas-tugas yang diberikan. Namun tidak semudah yang dibayangkan, masih banyak siswa-siswi yang kurang menaruh perhatian lebih kepada kemampuan problem solving ini. Penyebabnya tidak lain adalah teknik pengajaran yang masih dianggap membosankan, ini menyebabkan rasa malas untuk mempelajari apalagi mendalami tentang problem solving. Salah satu pendekatan yang bisa digunakan untuk melatih kemampuan ini adalah pendekatan Computational Thinking. Pada penelitian ini penulis membuat sebuah game edukasi Computational Thinking berbasis Role Playing Game. Game ini dibuat dengan menggunanakan beberapa rancangan yaitu Game Design Document dan Hierarchy plus Input Process Output. Serta metode yang digunakan adalah metode Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation. Dalam penelitian ini penulis mengujikan langsung kepada para murid dan mendapatkan hasil yang sangat memuaskan. Game yang dibuat dapat membuat para murid menjadi lebih termotivasi untuk belajar mengenai kemampuan problem solving. Ini berdasarkan data yang di dapat melalui pembuatan kuisioner. Metode yang digunakan dalam pembuatan kuisioner adalah skala likert. Game yang dibuat mendapatkan respon yang sangat positif dari para murid dalam berbagai aspek. Sehingga menghasilkan kesimpulan bahwa game Role Playing Game ini telah layak untuk dijadikan sebagai media untuk memotivasi para murid dalam hal mempelajari serta menanamkan kemampuan problem solving yang baik sejak dini.

Peri-urban areas in the global south are experiencing over-exploitation and contamination of water resources as a result of rapid urbanisation. These problems relate to the ineffectiveness of the underlying institutions in this dynamic, multi-actor context. Institutions need to be considered during problem solving; however, peri-urban communities have limited insight into their institutional context. This research examines the extent to which problem solving capacity can be improved through gaming-simulation methods. A game-based approach is tested in a capacity building workshop with peri-urban communities in Khulna (Bangladesh). A role-playing game designed from game theory models is used to examine local drinking water problems through an institutional lens. Workshop evaluation shows that through role-play, participants learned about strategies in drinking water supply (in both the current and future scenarios) and about the potential to address water quality issues through cooperative groundwater monitoring. Results also show improved problem understanding with regards to institutions, actor strategies, and problem-solving constraints. Participants valued the interactive medium for comparing and evaluating strategies. This paper highlights limitations in game design and its implementation, and offers ways to address this in future applications.

This research aims to establish a valid, practical, and effective media in the form of a game called Baret Argeo for students interest in learning at Senior High School 6 of Purworejo during online learning. This research is a development study that employs the ADDIE method (analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation).A required analysis is carried out according to pandemic conditions during the analysis stage. The Baret Argeo design and components were produced during the design stage. Validation was carried out by content experts with a value of 3.93 (valid) and media experts with a value of 4.46 at the production level (very valid).which was then put to the test on 18 students in a practicality test with a score of 4.03 (very practical). Then the implementation of the 18 students used the Argeo Beret which was compared with the other 18 students who used the Student Worksheet (LKS) using the t test comparative analysis. The result is   with 4.4881> 2.0322 then  is rejected or it can be said that students' interest in learning using Beret Argeo is better than students using LKS. At the evaluation stage, the Argeo Beret is reserved to be used in a wider range of mathematics learning. This research has implications for students' interest in learning in the middle of distance learning.

Players sit around a table. A group of adventurers pause in their pursuit of escape. Stunned, they stare at the die that just rolled poorly, resulting in the loss of a dear friend, his throat ripped out because they could not save him. The players mourn the death of a fictional character who only ever existed within the game. Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) is a popular role-playing game illustrating the interconnectedness of drama, performance, and games. My presentation will examine this relationship, identifying factors from gameplay that suggest how performance fosters success in D&D for both actual players and fictional characters. Research into dramatic theory and game theory reveals how interdisciplinary concepts such as the “magic circle”, the “lusory attitude”, and uncertainty can apply to elements of D&D (Salen and Zimmerman, Suits, Costikyan). Data collected from in-person observation of D&D sessions, coding participants’ behaviour, and watching for instances of performance (e.g. voice change, pronoun switches, or mimetic gesture), has been combined with theoretical research to determine elements that better facilitate success in the game/campaign. These elements range from emotional situations that provoke players, to forms of invitations encouraging participation (Isbister, White). I have discovered that while in theatre performance acts as a vehicle for story, in D&D the story acts as a vehicle for performance. The in-game performance often facilitates fun between players, as well as leading them to success in the game, so a campaign that maximizes theatricality will not only result in more fun, but also more success.

This study aimed at developing a Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game-based (MORPG) Learning system which enabled instructors to construct a game scenario and manage sharable and reusable learning content for multiple courses. It used the curriculum of “Introduction to Computer Science” as a study case to assess students' learning effectiveness on the subject of “computer network”. The sample was 56 freshman students, who were randomly assigned to two groups, one of which used the game-based learning and the other one the Web-based video lectures. Furthermore, this study also conducted the System Usability Scale (SUS) to measure satisfaction, usability and learnability of the developed management system for instructors. Five instructors were invited to participate in the practical use and evaluation. The results showed that game-based learning could be exploited as effective learning environments and game design system was usable and learnable for instructors to create learning games.

The desired outcome of instructional game design is to combine the powerful attraction of games and the proven effectiveness of instructional system design (ISD). This combination would have the capacity to focus player concentration on game play and learning the planned content in order to successfully complete the game. Conjoining game design elements (e.g., rules, goals and objectives, outcomes and feedback, conflict and challenge, interaction, representation or story) with ISD elements (e.g., analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation) may be the means of reaching the desired outcome. Applying recent findings (e.g., working memory capacity, mental models, memory consolidation) from cognitive psychology may provide further assistance.

The progress of information and communication technology demands lecturer of mathematics to make innovative learning based on IT while focusing the main goal in learning mathematics, i.e to create students who are skilled in solving problems and have good mathematical reasoning. Therefore, an interactive mathematical development based on problem solving is required. The model is developed using ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The data is analyzed using both Quantitative (as the main data) and qualitative (as supporting data). The results showed that interactive mathematical multimedia significantly improved the students' mathematical reasoning in terms of analyzing data, proposing allegations, verifying, drawing conclusions, and examining the validity of arguments. Students' responsiveness and motivation to learn mathematics is also positive because multimedia has interactive video display and complete material, while students feel that the learning process is not limited by space and time.
