Uso de jogos para potencializar o ensino de física

Abstract

Stimulating students' interest in learning has become a challenge for educators. Failures, which were previously caused by their lack of interest, are now considered to be flawed results of teachers' work. In recent years, education has undergone major positive changes, games have gained more and more space as an intermediate tool for teaching physics. In other words, ludic activities have been increasingly used to motivate students to learn about the content, considering that interest is the best tool for classroom learning. Therefore, in this work, a board game and a game were made, where only the board was applied to become a teaching tool for high school classes. For that, qualitative research was used, in which observations were made, data were collected through questionnaires, and the game was applied as teaching facilitators. The application of the game aroused the students' interest in the subject of Mechanical Physics and also aroused their participation in the classroom. Therefore, we can conclude that our research encourages educators to use games in the classroom
