Monografia (graduação em design) - Departamento de Artes. Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2018.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/47411One of this work’s objectives is to show how important the ludicity is in digital educational games, whose public is comprised of children and preteens in school age. In general, this monograph will aim not only to study the relevance of ludicity in educational games, but also of ludicity in education as a whole. In other words: how can the ludic contribute for an area so deficient in our society as the current Brazilian educational system. Grinspun (1999), when talking about the use of technological devices to educate, says that: “technology is the scientific knowledge transformed in technique which, by its turn, will broaden the possibilities of production of new knowledge”. In this line of reasoning, three educational games will be analyzed deductively through the seven principles for projecting efficient educational games, elaborated by Costa (2010), to identify if they respect these principles. Besides that, this monograph will look for viable solutions to make educational games more ludic through the analysis of interviews, and then try to understand the actual significance of ludicity in educational games.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/LudicidadeEducaçãoJogos digitaisbachelorThesis
