Gamificação com a ferramenta Kahoot: uma revisão sistemática da literatura acerca da aplicabilidade no ensino fundamental

Abstract

The growing lack of student interest and motivation has become an increasingly significant issue, particularly in elementary education. As a way to address this scenario, discussions have emerged on how information and communication technologies can contribute to daily school activities. This article aims to analyze how the use of gamification through the Kahoot tool can enhance the teaching and learning of elementary school subjects. To achieve this, a literature review on the topic was conducted, along with an exploratory study. The main authors highlighted include Almeida et al. (2023), Mesquita and Bueno (2023), Castilho and Haydu (2024), and Melo Neto et al. (2024). The results indicate that using technological tools in education, particularly gamification with Kahoot, makes learning more dynamic and engaging, fostering greater student involvement. Additionally, it contributes to the development of cognitive, social, and motor skills. The tool also enables self-assessment and a more effective pedagogical intervention.
