Explorando o efeito de estereótipos na motivação e fluxo em ambientes gamificados na educação

Abstract

As an important means of motivation, gamification allows the student to feel pleasant feelings of happiness and pleasure. The work presents a gamified mentoring system with gender stereotype threat, which studies and analyzes the effects of stereotype threat with the motivational construct and the flow experience, using scales that measure the predisposition to flow, flow and motivation of participants. Studies show that the threat of stereotyping diminishes the performance of individuals who are members of threatened groups. A tutoring system was proposed that assesses the performance of high school students from public schools in different scenarios: with and without gender stereotype, in order to observe the effect of this threat. In the experiment, there was no significant difference in performance, flow experience, and four aspects of motivation between male and female participants given the non-stereotyped and stereotyped (female and male) type of scenario. Important relationships of satisfaction, relevance and trust with the flow were found.
