Development of 2D Animation for Diarrhea Disease Based on Computer Generated Imagery (CGI)

Diarrhea is one of the biggest diseases in the world that can cause death. Diarrhea can be caused by poor environmental sanitation or poor lifestyle habits. Prevention can be done early, such as education at the primary education level to reduce the high number of diarrheal diseases. However, the education provided is still minimal. This is caused by the educational media which still uses books and blackboards, thus affecting students' understanding of diarrheal disease so that it is less than optimal in preventing diarrheal disease. Animation technology is one example of learning media development. Through animation, students become more interested and teachers become more helpful in communicating diarrheal disease material. In this paper, animation development is carried out. We develop 2D video animation using Computer Generated Imagery techniques. The results of beta testing via a questionnaire administered to respondents showed that 98.43% of respondents agreed that animated videos could be used as a learning medium for diarrheal disease material.

I. Introduction

Diarrheal diseases, which are the largest cause of outpatient visits, hospitalizations, and years of death globally (YLL) in people of all ages, are a serious public health problem affecting people worldwide. [1]. Diarrhea causes approximately 1.6 million deaths worldwide each year, and developing countries and economically underdeveloped regions bear the greatest burden. [2] Based on household health survey findings, the prevalence of diarrhea in Indonesia increased from 7% in 2013 to 8% in 2018 [3]. According to various studies in the health sector, poor urination habits, poor sanitation, and the use of contaminated water sources are some of the things that trigger diarrheal diseases [4], [5].
