Processos e materiais educativos na educação em ciências: utilizando jogos e experimentos no nsin de química- relato deexperiência

Abstract

The use of playful resources as pedagogical alternatives for teaching Chemistry is the main topic of this work. Besides the insertion of ludic activities in teaching, this work also discusses the importance of this kind of courseware as a facilitator of learning and its relevance in improving education. The adaptation of traditional games into specific ones, as well as the presentation of experiments, the use of food labels, among others, are shown as useful resources for understanding Chemistry concepts which normally are considered uninteresting by high-school students and entry-level college students. The insertion of the ludic contributes significantly because it has the advantage of teaching while being pleasurable. Moreover, the student can use them at home or even in other places where they will be able to learn while playing. Thus, this study analyses the potential of those pedagogical strategies and its characteristics as investigative activities in teaching sciences.
