Title: Enhancing serious game approaches to sustain water management in civil engineering practices: A Literature Review


Biography

As the founder of ECO CLICKO, I am driven by a passion for sustainability and education. With a background in engineering and a love for creative arts, I create eco-friendly educational games to inspire children to develop green skills while having fun. My goal is to revolutionize how children learn about environmental conservation. By combining engineering skills and creative flair, I push the boundaries of traditional game design, incorporating storytelling, technology, and hands-on activities. Committed to making a positive impact, I empower children and youth to become environmentally conscious citizens. Through ECO CLICKO, I am shaping the future of education and environmental stewardship, one green-minded child at a time.

Abstract

This research explores the integration of serious games into civil engineering education to improve the comprehension of sustainable water management principles. The game immerses students in realistic scenarios, allowing them to address challenges in water treatment, distribution, and infrastructure planning. Through interactive decision-making, players experience the consequences of their choices on water resource management and environmental impact. Preliminary findings show that this method leads to greater engagement and better knowledge acquisition compared to traditional teaching techniques. The simulation not only offers a dynamic learning experience but also fosters a proactive approach to sustainable water solutions. This research contributes to the educational field by demonstrating the potential of immersive serious games to enhance the understanding of sustainable practices among future civil engineers.
