Introduction Board games can be used as a playful educational practice in the teaching and learning process, as they constitute an educational technology that can be a source of health knowledge and an aid in decision-making. The objective of this research was to assess the effect of a board game on imprisoned women’s knowledge about STIs. Methods A quasi-experimental study was conducted in 2022 with 64 imprisoned women who were students at a school located in a prison unit from the city of Recife, state of Pernambuco, Brazil. A 32-item instrument was used to assess knowledge about sexually transmitted infections before, immediately after the intervention and at 15 days. The intervention consisted in applying the Previna board game in a classroom. All the analyses were performed in the Stata software, version 16.0, with a 5% significance level. Results The knowledge mean in the pre-test was 23.62 (± 3.23) points, whereas it rose to 27.93 (± 2,28) in the immediate post-test, dropping to 27.34 (± 2.37) (p < 0.001) in post-test 2, which was performed 15 days after the intervention. There was a statistically significant difference in the means obtained between the pre-test and the immediate post-test (p < 0.001), with a difference of 4.241 points, as well as between the pre-test and post-test 2 (p < 0.001), a difference of 3.846 spots. Conclusions The Previna board game significantly increased its players’ knowledge about STIs, and such increase in knowledge remained significant during the follow-up period.

“…Regardless of the teaching method chosen, the teacher must employ strategies during the classes that are capable of increasing the student’s motivation, improving knowledge retention and learning results [ 16 ]. It is known that, in the prison environment, the system itself limits some actions.…”

“…While Chang et al ’s2 work provides educators important insights related to the potential effectiveness of using educational boardgames as an intervention to improve students’ medication knowledge, the extent to which we may generalise the findings of this study to other students or settings is not fully known. Further, details outlining various environmental (eg, classroom setting, with or without supervision) or social factors (eg, peer discussion, level of participation) related to gameplay were not discussed.…”

“…However, other learning interventions, including the use of boardgames, may offer educators alternative options that are engaging, and which assist in knowledge retention. In their paper, Chang et al 2 examined the effectiveness of an educational boardgame in improving nursing students’ medication knowledge.…”

A 'flipped classroom' creates a dynamic and effective learning environment where students learn basic knowledge at home and engage in active learning activities during the class. It has been widely used across different STEM (Science, Technology, Environment, Mathematics) disciplines. However, there is a lack of systematic and quantitative assessments of the effectiveness of the flipped classroom model on student performance. In this study, a meta-analysis was conducted with 53 research articles on the flipped classroom in STEM higher education. It showed an overall significant effect in favor of flipped learning over traditional learning models for STEM education (Hedges' g = 0.263, 95% [0.190, 0.337], Z = 7.03, p < 0.0001), with no evidence of publication bias. Moderator analysis showed that student performance was associated with the implementation strategies of flipped learning and the research control methods. Testing of the moderating factors link activity, pre-class activity, in-class activity, and post-class activity suggests that link activities to gauge home learning at the beginning of class, a mixture of group activities and individual activities during class and setting a combination of quizzes and exercises after class, all serve to improve student achievement in STEM education.
