Abstract

Indonesia’s COVID-19 pandemic touched several areas, including education. The government’s social activity restrictions make educational promotion for potential students challenging. Virtual campus expos can be a solution. This study developed a virtual campus exhibition app and presented a virtual multiplayer software that promotes departments, workshops, and performances. The waiting room, stage, laboratory, and stand supported these three activity sites. Chat, video conferencing, department booth, image and video material, avatar characters, and campus expo content management are some features designed. The study found that 86.5% of 100 respondents realized campus and department information was helpful, and 96.6% liked visual communication. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Aji Prasetya Wibawa.
