Pedagogia da imaginação: o potencial do RPG como ferramenta educacional libertadora

Abstract

This project aims to explore the potential use of Role-playing Game (RPG) as a teaching methodology to foster meaningful learning in Portuguese language and literature, with a focus on reading, writing, and oral skills. A pedagogical intervention project was proposed for the classroom, designed to be implemented by any Portuguese and literature teacher, even those unfamiliar with RPG. The research included a literature review and a proposed didactic sequence of 8 lessons, each lasting 50 minutes. The theoretical approach delved into the concept and history of RPG, its connection to literature, as well as gamification in education and the knowledge and learning objectives based on the BNCC. The investigation aims to contribute to the scientific community by highlighting the potential benefits of RPG as a contextualized teaching tool for Portuguese language and literature, along with the evidence supporting its application.
