Gamificação no ensino de história: criação e aplicabilidade de jogo educacional com a utilização de inteligência artificial

Abstract

This article addresses the integration of gamification, game, and artificial intelligence (AI) in History education, aiming to strengthen motivation, in the sense of creating stimuli to achieve goals, according to Burke (2015), and learning in high school. Emerging technological approaches demonstrate the feasibility of creating personalized dynamics, enriching the cognitive experience. In this sense, the key question is presented: how can gamification be applied in History instruction, with artificial intelligence, to deepen student engagement and learning? Thus, the objectives are to investigate its creation, applicability, and develop an educational game through artificial intelligence. The theoretical framework includes a literature review on gamification, game, AI, and the teaching of that curriculum component in the context of the school environment. Furthermore, it is followed by a case study methodology involving stages of invention, the effectiveness of an educational game supported by AI, evaluated through a Google Forms questionnaire and systematic observations. The results indicate the potential increase in engagement and in the learning process. Importantly, this study advances the understanding of the constructive nexus among these three research objects, providing practical guidance for educators enthusiastic about these themes.
