Jogos Digitais para Idosos – uma experiência de ensino
Resumo
Esse artigo descreve a experiência de aprendizado e interação com os jogos desenvolvidos pelo Prof. Dr. Kaufman para o programa AGEWELL do Canadá. Os jogos de paciência e jogo da velha foram adaptados para o português possibilitando a aplicação no Brasil. Os primeiros resultados coletados de um piloto apontam concordância com os resultados levantados no Canadá, os quais sugerem um maior entrosamento dos participantes e aprendizado através dos questionários embutidos nos jogos. Esse artigo apresenta ainda alguns requisitos para ambientes de jogos voltados especificamente para usuários idosos. Os resultados sugerem que o engajamento dos idosos é maior quando as interfaces com os jogos apresentam menos elementos intermediários, preferindo atividades que permitem o movimento do corpo ou interação direta com o jogo através de telas de toque ou sensores de movimento. Esses dados são exemplificados nos jogos apresentados.
