Optimización de procesos mediante la aplicación de herramientas tecnológicas emergentes : desarrollo de un juego serio en realidad virtual para impulsar la adopción de buenos hábitos en salud oral en niños.

Abstract

This curricular integration project focuses on the development of a serious virtual reality game called "Molar Urku," aimed at teaching and promoting good oral health habits among children in Ecuador. The game uses gamification techniques to encourage active and engaging learning. The project development was conducted using the agile Scrum methodology and the iPlus methodology for requirements gathering. The development process was structured in three sprints, each with specific objectives and continuous evaluations to ensure the quality of the final product. Usability and functionality tests were crucial to validating the game's effectiveness. Although the game was deployed through the LudoLab website rather than directly on app stores, user access was facilitated, partially fulfilling the scope objective. The implementation of this project contributes to achieving SDG-3, providing an innovative educational tool for promoting oral health
