    Abstract

    Digital simulation offers numerous advantages for midwifery training and in particularly enhancing decision making skills. By providing realistic, risk-free learning experiences, fostering repetition and feedback, and offering a variety of scenarios, digital simulation stands out as an effective tool for preparing midwifery learners for the complexities of clinical practice. However, creating a 3D-based simulation system that supports scalable solutions poses challenges. Apart from the cost of 3D content; designing a simulation that ensures engagement with learners as well as scalability is still a problem. This paper discusses a design and implementing case study of such a system using gamification methodologies, focusing on scalability and efficiency. The system uses web-based digital media, including web 3D game technology, for educational simulation. It showcases how web-based game technology facilitates simulation design and concludes with future considerations.
