O JOGO DE REALIDADE ALTERNADA CURTO (SHORT ARG) COMO ESTRATÉGIA DE DISCUSSÃO DE CONCEITOS QUÍMICOS EM NÍVEL SUPERIOR

Abstract

THE SHORT ALTERNATE REALITY GAME (SHORT ARG) AS A STRAGEGY FOR DISCUSSING CHEMICAL CONCEPTS AT COLLEGE EDUCATION. This paper presents the application of a Short ARG built to be applied in a single class, instead of a longer interval, as it is common in strategies such as ARG. ARGs are games based on role-playing experiences that involve role playing using a particular place, in this case, two classrooms and an education lab. Whereas ARG’s characters are the participants/ players themselves, in this study, they were the Chemistry undergraduate students. The students/players were aimed of various clues and moments involving chemical concepts to find a lost student. We could notice ARG can be a teaching strategy, we mean, an alternative for conceptual discussion in the classroom as well as a diagnostic and formative assessment tool, characteristic of the use of games and recreational activities in teaching scientific concepts.
