Development of a Serious Game as a Natural Hazard Planning Decision Support Tool
Jody A. Thompson
Journal of Extension, v62 n1 Article 8 2024
As coastal populations grow, so does the exposure to natural hazards such as hurricanes and flooding, creating the potential for increased social and economic disasters. The literature indicates coastal residents remain complacent when planning before, during, and after an event. There is a growing successful use of serious games in natural resources planning, and a growth in the use of digital and electronic games. We developed the serious digital game Plan for It! in response to identified needs and to capitalize on the public's familiarity with gamification and digital gaming.
