Creative Solution for Flood Response Assessment. A Challenge-Based Learning Implementation

To enhance the evaluation and education of geohydrological risk management, creative activities can be utilized through the deployment of challengebased learning, which is based on collaborative GIS/hydrodynamical modeling and serious gaming. To answer the demand for efficient flood mitigation techniques in the context of increasing climate-driven threats, this interacts advanced simulation with practical problem-solving. Throughout the process of modeling crisis scenarios, participants create and evaluate response plans in an environment that is within control. The activity is designed to be accomplished in a collaborative manner, and it is assisted by professionals, which helps to enhance the practical application of interdisciplinary scientific and technological knowledge. Therefore, engineers can be prepared to deal with catastrophes from a variety of perspectives. These perspectives are not limited to flood assessment; rather, they must be able to manage the full extent of the hazard. This includes the exploration of floods, the modeling of hydrodynamics, the promotion of resilience to disasters, and the preparation of plans for prevention, mitigation, and evacuation. Consequently, we anticipate that participants will actively learn to apply theoretical concepts in practical situations. Participants will accomplish this by incorporating novel approaches, empathizing, sharing, and focusing on current socio-economic and environmental needs. Additionally, we expect participants to project an interdisciplinary perspective over a practical challenge in a real geohydrological menace case.
