O ensino da organização política e econômica do espaço mundial no 8º ano do ensino fundamental a partir de jogos e atividades lúdicas

Abstract

This work is the result of studies whose overarching objective is to develop an educational resource to aid in the teaching and learning of Geography, focusing on the political and economic organization of the global space for 8th-grade students in Middle Education. Given the relevance of this theme—highlighted both in the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) and in the curricula of public education networks—and the need to foster geographic reasoning among students, this study proposes methodologies that go beyond traditional blackboards and textbooks. It is believed that the use of games and playful activities can be an effective way to spark greater interest and understanding in students, progressing from foundational concepts to broader, global analyses. To this end, a instructional sequence was developed, with its primary contribution being the enhancement of engagement, motivation, and meaningful learning, as well as the stimulation of critical thinking and active student participation.
