O uso da gamificação no ensino de língua inglesa: vivências no programa de residência pedagógica.

Abstract

In the contemporary educational context, the adoption of innovative pedagogical strategies is essential to promote the effectiveness of teaching and the significance of learning. In this sense, gamification emerges as a promising approach, aiming to engage students and make the educational process more dynamic and participatory. This experience report aims to reflect on the use of gamification in English language teaching to a 1st year high school class, at the Federal Institute of Amapá - IFAP, under the eyes of two pedagogical residents during the regency phase of the Pedagogical Residency Program (PRP). This is a case study with data analysis from a qualitative approach. The results revealed a significant increase in student motivation, an improvement in content retention, and greater interaction between them. However, it has also been observed that the success of gamification depends on careful planning, adaptation to students' needs, and institutional support.
