Avaliação formativa baseada em jogos durante a pandemia covid-19

Abstract

Teaching and formative assessment underwent major transformations during the pandemic, due to social isolation. In this context, technology has become increasingly popular and has become an ally of remote teaching. Among the digital tools available, digital gamification has become interesting for education; with more students familiar with videogames and a life based on games, it is possible to add these technologies to education in order to make learning more dynamic and inviting, and to facilitate the educational process. Thus, the objective of this study was to report the authors' experience with formative evaluation based on games as a reinforcement of remote teaching in times of COVID-19 using the Mconf/RNP platform, as a way to implement changes in the discipline Collective Health II of the Undergraduate Nursing course, which has always been offered in the face-to-face modality. The development of the game and its application occurred during the classes that were taught in the first semester of 2021. The results of this study indicate that the use of games during remote teaching has the potential to become an efficient resource for the formative assessment of students.
