Desenvolvimento e avaliação do jogo digital QUIMIF para o ensino da tabela periódica nas aulas de química.

Abstract

This work on the development and application of a digital game in chemistry, and aims to help teachers through alternative materials for teaching aimed at students of science and greater learning. The educational game QUIMIF is presented, which aims to present players (students) with information about the elements of the periodic table and their applicability in everyday chemistry. In addition, the importance of games in educational environments will also be addressed, especially in Chemistry classes; the entire QUIMIF construction process; an evaluation of the proposal and importance of the knowledge acquired during the Technician course in Informatics for the construction of this work. The learning verification process was carried out through probing tests with two test groups, which verify the game, and two control groups. It was carried out, in all classes, the application of a block of questions of the subject worked game with the purpose of diagnosis as in the knowledge of the classes on the subject. They were studied as class averages to verify the learning process. This work was carried out at the Instituto Federal da Bahia (IFBA), Campus Santo Amaro. The averages were higher than the control groups, making it happen that there was a significant learning of the test groups with an emphasis on the game.
