A cultura digital e a utilização de jogos no ensino de matemática nos anos finais do ensino fundamental e ensino médio

Abstract

Digital culture has significantly transformed educational practices, requiring new methodologies that engage with the technologies present in students' daily lives. In this context, the use of digital games in Mathematics teaching emerges as an innovative and motivating strategy, capable of making learning more dynamic, interactive, and contextualized. Games support the development of logical reasoning, problem-solving, and autonomy, while also promoting student engagement and interest through challenges and rewards. In the final years of Elementary School and in High School, the use of playful and technological resources helps to overcome the traditional and abstract view of the subject, bringing mathematical content closer to young people's reality. Furthermore, the teacher assumes the role of mediator, guiding learning and encouraging reflection on the strategies used in the games. Thus, the integration between digital culture And the teaching of Mathematics enables the construction of a more meaningful, collaborative educational environment focused on the development of essential skills for the 21st century.
