| Summary: | Numbers of road accidents among children keep increasing from year to year and this has been identified as major cause for children death. Government of Malaysia finds there is need to educate these young children at their early age. Education program called „Program Pendidikan Keselamatan Jalan Raya‟ or PKJR was introduced by government to all primary school throughout Malaysia. This program is an initiative between Jabatan Keselamatan Jalan Raya together with Ministry of Education of Malaysia to address the issue of road injuries and fatality. PKJR is a learning process to build strong foundation for road users on right attitudes and knowledge. Based on the problem that has been identified such as limited technology to support PKJR syllabus and mobile game on road safety not aligned with the syllabus of PKJR, a solution is suggested to counter the problems. Hence, the main objective of this project is to develop a game based mobile application in order to educate primary school children on road safety and enhance mobile games on road safety according to PKJR syllabus.
The target user for this project is children age 7-12 years old. This mobile application runs on any device supported by Android and language used will be Malay. To come out with this project, there are few phases to be carried out such as preliminary research on road safety and PKJR syllabus, designing the interface, coding and testing, and lastly implementation. To measure level of understanding of students on road safety, their answer will be the main indicator. From the user testing survey, most of the students would like to use game based mobile application in learning about road safety as additional learning tool because the children find out it is interesting to learn via mobile. |
