Softw atomic number 18 t sensation Requirement Analysis on Educational bizSoftw atomic number 18 pure tone Requirement Analysis on Educational roving juicy with touristry ThemeAnggy Trisnadoli1*, Istianah Muslim2, Wenda Novayani3Abstract Mobile risque is one vitrine of second that runs on fluent devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs. In previous query, we gain proposed theatrical role model for nomadic gritty which is a select model that was built to flier tone of voice from erratic juicys. This model was built from tincture requirements that were analyzed for busy blues. Educational agile game is grooming game genre with mobile based that aimed to learning, then the quality requirements maybe give different comp ared to other games. This research was conducted by analyzing the mobile games quality requirements that specific for educational games genre in order to generate freshly quality requirements that are specific to the mobile educational game. T he case studies that become an evaluation of current research are the touristry of Riau province, Indonesia. So the mobile educational game that will design later is a mobile educational game that contains about touristry in Riau province. To get a list of criteria for this case, then we conducted a survey of several make use ofrs, and also make a group discussion forum along with a tourism ambassador of Riau province, so that the quality requirements will be to a enormouser extent reliable. So the proposed quality requirements may become a destination to mannikin a game product that has a unafraid quality based on the users perspective.Keywords Software quality, games, mobile games, educational mobile games, tourism, Riau province. blue is a governance composed of artificial rules that involve matchers with the aim to entertain 1 2. Game contains scenarios that composed of a collection of audio and visual interest that allows users to enjoy game play that has been given b y the game. By the unique characteristics game compared to other package, then, on that point are many things that do more specific, special for the games. Quality model for mobile game is one of the quality models that were built to measure the quality of the mobile games 3. This model was built based play ability quality models built by Snchez et al 4 and adapted to the quality requirements for mobile games 3. In its application this quality model used to measure the quality of a users perspective, so that measurements arsehole be made after the game finished mobile products developed.In designing an educational game, it must be guided by a honourable character reference. Quality assurance can be done starting of the development stage, the design stage. Quality models for the mobile game offers a collection of properties that indicate the needs of a mobile game quality, so that the quality requirements can be used as a reference in arrive ating a good mobile game. However, that offered quality requirement is built for the mobile game in general, while the mobile educational game is a genre the mobile game with educational or learning, so that the quality requirements could have a few differences. Based on these problems, so, in this research we performed an abridgment of the mobile games quality requirements that are specific to the educational games genre, to be able to produce a game product that has fit quality of the quality requirements based on the users perspective.As for the issues that will be studied in this paper are does requirements for a quality mobile game can be used as a reference in the design stage of development the mobile educational games. And how far the relationship of quality requirements for mobile game required to Mobile Educational Games with tourism content of the users perspective to be able produce a good quality product.2.1. Quality Requirement for Mobile GameIn 2015, research on the quality model for mobile games has been conducted by Trisnadoli, Hendradjaya and Sunindyo 2 entitled A Proposal Quality lay for Mobile Games. Quality Model for Mobile Game was formed based on the software quality requirements that has been compiled based on the criteria and ideas from several researches on mobile games 3. The proposed model has quality factors as shown on Fig. 1.Fig. 1. Quality Model for Mobile Games 2Factors and sub factors for the quality of the quality model for mobile games that have been proposed are Usability In Use with sub factors Effectiveness In Use, Efficiency In Use, Satisfaction. Then Flexibility In Use with sub factor Accessibility. And Safety with subfactor User Health Safety gameboard 1.

Mobile devices that can be applied to mobile game such as Smartphones, PDAs, Tablet PCs and Portable Game Console. Mobile game is highly unfree on the device that became his home 5. Based on the characteristics of mobile games and mobile applications presented by several researchers 6-11 then performed an analysis of the characteristics and then were extracted to produce set of quality requirements are been the foundation of building a quality requirement that will be used. after conducting an analysis of data that has been lay in, so, the conclusion of proposed quality requirements for mobile game can be seen in Table I.2.2. Educational Game Genre CharacteristicsAccording to Sugihartono 12, educating means the process of changing the attitudes and behavior of a person or group with a mature effort with teaching and training efforts. Education can be obtained for both formal and informal. Formal education was obtained from a structured learning that has been designed by an institution. While the non-formal education is the knowledge gained humans in everyday life either experien ced or learned from others. star way to learn with non-formal system is by educational game.Educational games are games that are designed or created to stimulate thought include improving meanness and problem-solving 13. YM Harahap on 14 concluded that the educational game is one of the games that can be useful to support the teaching and learning process with more fun and more creative, and usable to provide teaching or increase user knowledge by an exciting media. According to Hurd and Jennings 15 declared that educational game is game that is specifically designed to teach user a certain learning, concept development and understanding and guide them in their ability to train and motivate them to play. Factors that are considered essential in developing educational game are usability, accuracy, appropriateness, Relevance, Objectiveness, Feedback, Engagement, Motivation, and Gaming Literacy.Dondlinger 16, said that a number of distinct design elements on educational games are wr ite up context, rules, goals, rewards, multisensory cues, and interactivity seem necessary to stimulate propensityd learning outcomes. And a few other things about the characteristics of the educational game are Challenging, Fun, and Excitement not support and based on experience, interactive, expertise, reflection.Determination of the quality requirements of mobile educational games, we perform an analysis based on various sources of quality requirements, such as the quality requirements that have been offered by previous researchers then combine from survey results that conducted on some respondents, while also using the functional requirements of mobile educational game stakeholders for tourism in Riau province. So that, the proposed quality requirements can become a reference in developing mobile educational game with good quality. 3.1. Quality Requirements for Mobile Educational Game based on Users PerspectiveIn determining the quality requirements of mobile games from the us ers perspective, data collection or surveys conducted to several respondents randomly. Respondents, who macrocosm questioned are derived from various professions, age, sex, and excitement in playing the games. The stuff to consider in conducting a survey on software quality requirements analysis for mobile games are The comfort of audio and visual, Interest on the storyline, Satisfaction in playing, the comfort using control game, Screen size of mobile devices, Addictive (the desire to borrow the game).Survey of users was conducted in the form of an interview. Selection of respondents by random sampling method is applied to 130 people with different backgrounds, but put away has an interest in using games on mobile devices.The interview results are then analyzed and processed by concluding and verification of data obtained. Table II is the result of the conclusions of the quality requirements of mobile games based on the users perspective.Table 2.

Survey result on requirements from users perspective by percentage3.2. The results of the gathering Group Discussion for Riau body politic Tourism Case StudyForum Group Discussion (FGD) was conducted to get a conclusion for the criteria that are required to build a mobile educational game with a case study of tourism on Riau province. This activity was attended by 35 part icipants that were an ambassador for tourism in Riau province. Discussions were held during few hours, then, closed with some results which can be seen in Table III.Table 3. FGD Result to Mobile Educational Game CriteriaNoIndicatorsCriterias1InterfaceAttractive appearance (eye catchy)2The color usage is comfortably viewed3Audio snug to hear4StorylineInteresting storyline or game play5Not boring6Addiction (wanted to play again-and again)7Education ContentsSimple but pregnantGrowing a curiosityFrom the discussion we get conclude that the most important content in game tourism theme are Arts, tourer Attraction and Folklore. Arts with Traditional Dance, Songs and Musical Instrument. Tourist Attraction with Nature and Historical Heritage. Folklore with Legend and Fairy Tales. Table III shows the various technical criteria to be considered in the development of an interesting mobile educational game. In order to build a mobile educational game on tourism sector, there are several things to consider such as the content, simple but meaningful and interesting, and dont forget to contain about Malay art and culture, because it is a assay-mark from Riau Province. As for the interface of this educational game, the things to consider are the attractive appearance, the use of color that comfortable to look at and pleasant sound to be heard.After discovering the things that become important considerations in the requirement of mobile games, educational games, also the requirement for mobile game with tourism content, then formed a new calculation to show the overlapping and interrelated requirements to be good quality requirements as a reference in designing a mobile-based game with education genre and tourism case study in Riau province. The results of the analysis are shown in Table IV.Table 4.

Especially the contents of tourism that it only requir ed if the specific case study towards the tourism sector, would be an important thing for the preparation of quality requirements.Based on all the stages that have been done before, and then we analyze it to propose a new quality requirement. Proposed quality requirements for mobile educational game that specific to tourism case study are show on Table V. It contains the proposed quality requirements for mobile educational game with a case study of tourism. So in designing and developing mobile educational game later, these quality requirements can become one of factor to be good quality software. Because of the good quality software is start from the design stage, not only during the implementation or development, even when they are published to the user.Table 5.

Software quality requirements can be composed of any various kinds of input, not only from the existing criteria, but also can be collected based on user feedback and the specific requirements of stakeholders that will use the software. Quality requirements for mobile educational game on tourism case studies has been built specifically based on the criteria that collected to build a good quality software. The proposed quality requirements can become a reference in building software educational game design since the beginning, so the quality of mobile educational games already maintained earlier.For future research, the proposed quality requirements should be performed a validation scrutiny on the feasibility, so that it can be more confirmed as good quality requirements. And the proposed quality requirement can be a reference to build a quality model with specific quality factors and complete metrics to evaluate the mobile educational game software, so it can measure how much the quality value of a mobile educational game in tourism theme.AcknowledgmentWe would like to thank to Politeknik Caltex Riau to Support this research, also to Riau Province and Pekanbaru Citys Tou rism Ambassadors Bujang-Dara to help us with very generous discussion and feedback.ReferencesClearwater, D.
