Ludicidade, jogos e gamificação no ensino de piano: mapeando saberes e práticas no Brasil

Abstract

This study aims to explore the current state of knowledge on playfulness and the use of games and gamification within piano pedagogy in Brazil. It was motivated by the author's experience using games in the classroom and by the need to expand knowledge in order to improve her teaching practice. To collect data, a literature review was conducted, focusing on the period between 2015 and 2024. The sources included the congresses of the Associação Brasileira de Educação Musical (ABEM) and the Associação Nacional de Pesquisa e Pós-graduação em Música (ANPPOM). The study concludes that, although playfulness and the use of games are recurring topics, gamification remains a limited subject in music education research in the country. Therefore, this work contributes to a broader understanding of the topic and encourages further studies on the field of piano pedagogy.
