Abstract

The study of nutrition and energy metabolism in high school depends on a series of concepts of organic chemistry, which will only be worked on in the last year by the Chemistry professor. The great difficulty for Biology teachers is to introduce these chemical concepts in parallel to this content. We believe that only the lectures are not enough to arouse the interest of students. Based on this premise, we believe that the development of new educational materials is very relevant to improve learning. “Survival” is an investigative / cooperative board game on nutrition and energy metabolism. Used as a playful strategy, it was developed as teaching material to assist teachers in reviewing concepts on the topic.
