O uso de jogos lúdicos como estratégia didática no ensino de biologia

Abstract

This work aims to examine the use of playful games as a pedagogical tool in the teaching of Biology, through a bibliographical review. Given the complexity of many biological concepts, such as genetics, evolution and ecology, we seek to analyze how games can facilitate the understanding of these thematic contents and promote greater student commitment to learning. Based on a review of studies and academic research, this work discusses the benefits that playful games bring to the teaching of Biology, such as increased motivation, improved retention of information and the development of cognitive and social skills. Furthermore, the results highlight the challenges faced in implementing this strategy, such as the lack of resources and limited time in the classroom. Finally, it is concluded that playful games have a significant attribute in making Biology learning more dynamic and accessible, contributing to more participatory and meaningful teaching.
