Abstract

<p class="Abstract">A serious game known as Ddi Tool is presented by the authors to improve the competences on Operations Management of graduate and postgraduate students. The game is applied to the resolution of multistage industrial processes allowing to have a global vision of the manufacturing process and combining the students’ skills on operations management research and learning. The tool allows also to perform an economic evaluation of the whole process by means of the process costs analysis and improving this cost as function of the main process variables and parameters: raw material, workforce, energy consumption, etc. The game has been generated using Java language with a user-friendly interface for a quick comprehension by the student during the practical classroom. In this manner, the tool allows developing competencies to students applying and developing scientific, technological, mathematical, economical and sustainable knowledge.</p>

Highlights

  • A serious game known as Ddi Tool is presented by the authors to improve the competences on Operations Management of graduate and postgraduate students

  • En el trabajo de OSullivan y otros (2011) se identifica la necesidad de incorporar este tipo de herramientas en los currículos de los estudios superiores, como en el de Mears y otros (2011) sobre estudios superiores aplicados a la ingeniería del automóvil, concluyendo que es necesario incorporar conceptos inteligentes en la enseñanza

  • Las decisiones que el usuario toma a lo largo del juego son asumidas en el entorno de diferentes tipos de conocimiento: científico -en lo que se refiere a las decisiones que toma sobre el proceso de fabricación y las características de los materiales-, tecnológico -en lo relativo a la selección de parámetros de funcionamiento de la maquinaria-, matemático -en la utilización de algoritmos de optimización- y económico -en lo relativo al análisis de costes de materiales, procesos y consumo energético-
