An Educational Game to Detect Data Quality Problems in Relational Databases

Learning to deal with data is of fundamental importance to ensure its quality. Considering the subjective nature of data quality dimensions, learning from them is a challenge for students. This paper proposes the development of an educational game to reinforce database and data quality learning. The game simulates various scenarios for which the player (student) assumes the role of a data analyst and has to assess the quality of data stored in relational databases. To this end, the student must analyze the scenarios and indicate the data that have quality problems. Experimental results indicate that the game is able to improve student learning while at the same time serve as an entertainment option.
