LET´S GO!: UMA REFLEXÃO SOBRE O ENSINO DA REVOLUÇÃO FRANCESA EM ASSASSIN´S CREED UNITY

Abstract

This article tries to present reflections on the use of the game Assassin's Creed Unity as didactic resources in the teaching of the French Revolution. The proposal is to generate a conceptual discussion that took into account some thinkers who believe in the success of more immersive methodologies and strategies in pedagogical practices like Soares (2013), Peixoto (2016) and Lima (2015), and also bringing concepts such as the representation of Chartier (1991), to illustrate how images, scenarios, characters and activities in the game can be used in a way to assist the teacher in his teaching teaching process with the students. I believe that the purpose of the work has been achieved since we have devoted a part of it to demonstrate how the game can in practice serve as a facilitator and generator of more pleasant understanding for the teaching of the French Revolution, we must not disregard and discard the use of other pedagogical practices like the didactic book and expositive classes, as allies and even base for the use of Assassins Creed Unity in what concerns the teaching of the Revolution. So I believe non-didactic games like Assassins Creed Unity can be used in classrooms to aid in the visualization of distant contents of students, both in history that is the main motto of the article and in other disciplines that are not dealt with here. This work is not intended to be a definitive talk about games and history teaching, this discussion is much larger than could fit into a work of such a few pages, in this way we can raise this discussion in another time with more comprehensiveness.
