Magister ludi : o jogo no espaço fechado da sala de aula

Resumo

Using as a starting point the necessity to reconcile, in most learning processes, effort and laziness, games, have since the earliest times, been used as a pedagogical tactic. This article attempts to demonstrate how, in a society like our own, which is increasingly motivated by playful expression, games, and more specifically, role playing games can be not only a pedagogical tactic but also a methodology, a way towards knowledge, which is able to return to pedagogy its wider function: the re-encounter between knowledge, the power of knowledge and the pleasure of knowledge.
