Aplicação e avaliação de uma atividade gamificada no ensino de ciência por meio do uso do aplicativo Kahoot

Abstract

Increasingly present in everyday school life, technology brings great challenges for teaching and learning. In science teaching, content learning and skills development is essential for human formation. Thus, the present study sought to use the Kahoot application to assist in learning and developing skills, according to the Common National Curriculum Base (BNCC). To this end, 28 students from a class of the 8th grade of elementary school II (final years) of a municipal school located in João Pessoa - PB participated in the research. Eight classes were taught by the new BNCC, containing the application of a simulation corresponding to these skills. From the results, it was possible to classify the complexity of the 10 problems, in which 2 problems were classified as "Very Easy", 1 as "Easy", 5 as "Medians" and 2 as "Difficult". Therefore, it is noted that the methodology used brought students closer to digital culture and helped in the development of new skills. This work, therefore, presents good perspectives for future research to be developed in this theme.
