QUÍZMICA: APRENDENDO QUÍMICA DE UMA FORMA LÚDICA

Abstract

The teaching-learning process needs didactic and innovative proposals to make this teaching more exciting and enjoyable. In view of this, it is up to the teacher to seek methodological innovation alternatives that may be part of their pedagogical planning with the intuition of achieving better efficiency in this educational process. Therefore, this work presented a playful way of revising/reinforcing the contents taught in the first year of high school regarding the discipline of chemistry. Specifically, the ludic game 'Quízmica' was created, as an innovative proposal on the contents of chemistry in the 1st year of high school. To test the pedagogical efficiency of the game, two high school classes (1st and 2nd years) from a public school in the city of Catalão-GO were invited to participate in the research. After the two groups had played the game, a form with 6 questions was applied to measure the efficiency of the ludic game. The results showed that the playful game “Quízmica” had 100% acceptance in terms of interest, pleasure, and satisfaction for both groups. However, in a more specific way, what was shown revealed that the game showed a higher efficiency yield in the second-year class, as expected, since this group had already had contact with the first-year subject. How ever, the game “Quízmica” was presented as an efficient teaching tool that can be implemented not only with contents aimed at the first year of chemistry, but also for the other years, as well as for other areas of high school.
