Participation of adolescents from the Quilombola community in the creation of an educational game about alcohol consumption

Abstract

Objective: To describe and discuss the participation of adolescents from a quilombola community in the transformation of the comic “Possible Story” (“Uma História Possível”), from the Comic on alcohol, into an educational game. Method: Implementation of the creative and sensitive method of art-based research, with adolescents from a quilombola community in the state of Espírito Santo, for the development of a board game. Results: The democratic and interactive space favored the problematization of images and narratives about alcohol consumption mediated in the comic book. The group selected scenes, reordered the story, devised questions and riddles, formulated true and false assertions in a 17-card composition of the board game. The potential of the game as a content mediating tool to promote learning, reinforcement, and fixation of scientific content was evaluated. Conclusion: The active and dynamic participation of adolescents took place from conception to evaluation of the board game, encouraging them to reflect on a community context of cultural permissiveness of alcohol use.

Construction of educational technology on non-violent communication between health professionals: an experience report

“…Playful technologies, such as the one adopted in this report, allow dense or very technical information to be socialized in a more pleasant and fun way, making the learning process easier, bringing abstract concepts closer to everyday practices. This means that learners do not necessarily notice that they are being instructed, but end up learning information that will be reflected in their attitudes (10) .…”

“…The use of almanacs for health education has been increasing, especially in nursing, with successful measures among different populations of health service users. Its use is also potential for continuing education of workers, as it constitutes a leisure activity, but educational, to professionals who often have little time or little opportunity to take courses, workshops or similar (10) . In this regard, a mini almanac aimed at promoting the use of NVC can bring the theme closer to health professionals in a subtle way, with few negative impacts on daily lives and work demands of these people.…”
