Utilização de Game Learning Analytics para verificação do aprendizado em jogo sério voltado ao ensino de zoologia

Abstract

Digital games are tools capable of aiding in learning, games developed exclusively for this purpose are called Serious Games. Serious Games are used in several areas of learning including in the field of Zoology, which aims to train people who know the characteristics of animals and relate ethically with them. However, Serious Games face some problems, one of these difficulties is to understand how players interact with the game and how the learning process takes place. With Game Learning Analytics it is possible to collect and analyze data from the Serious Games with the aim of improving their practical applicability and thus to develop more effective educational games. In this project, we developed a Serious Game capable of assisting learning in Zoology and its effectiveness will be analyzed through the use of Game Learning Analytics.
