estudo sobre o uso do jogo de RPG na Educação Matemática em anos iniciais do ensino fundamental

Este trabalho buscou fazer uma revisão sistemática de pesquisas na área da Educação Matemática utilizando jogos de Role Play game-RPG. De início fizemos o levantamento utilizando as bases de dados da Scielo, do Google Acadêmico e Periódico Capes, por serem, mais conhecidas e utilizadas no meio acadêmico para disseminação de pesquisas e estudos. Focamos em produções do período de 2015 a 2021, utilizando as palavras-chave: Role Play Game, Educação Matemática e Anos Iniciais; Jogo de RPG e Educação Matemática; Jogo de RPG e Anos Iniciais. O objetivo geral desse trabalho foi analisar através das pesquisas encontradas nas bases de dados, o uso do RPG na Educação Matemática em Anos Iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. Propomos ainda descrever a importância sobre jogos, em especial, jogos de RPG enquanto ferramenta pedagógica na educação, como também, analisar através das bases de dados se e quais pesquisas usam o RPG na Educação Matemática nos Anos Inicias e verificar como as pesquisas encontradas faziam uso do RPG. Durante as pesquisas nas bases de dados relatadas, obtivemos poucos trabalhos que utilizassem o RPG no Ensino Fundamental e que envolvesse Educação Matemática. Através das pesquisas vimos o potencial do uso do RPG na educação, e sua contribuição no ensino e aprendizagem de diversas áreas do conhecimento, em especial, na Educação Matemática. Desta forma, é notória a importância de desenvolver pesquisas na área devido à escassez de produções. Palavras-chave: Role Play Game; Educação Matemática; Anos Iniciais.

The Sprague-Grundy Functions of Saturations of Misère Nim

We consider misère Nim as a normal-play game obtained from Nim by removing the terminal position. While explicit formulas are known for the Sprague-Grundy functions of Nim and Welter's game, no explicit formula is known for that of misère Nim. All three of these games can be considered as position restrictions of Nim. What are the differences between them? We point out that Nim and Welter's game are saturated, but misère Nim is not. Moreover, we present explicit formulas for the Sprague-Grundy functions of saturations of misère Nim, which are obtained from misère Nim by adjoining some moves.

Game Developers Playing Games : Instrumental Play, Game Talk, and Preserving the Joy of Play

Critical studies of the global game industry have shown how employment in game companies is often advertised as a chance to get paid for playing games. The same love of games that often brings people to the game industry also places them at a disadvantage when negotiating the terms and conditions of work. Drawing from fourteen in-depth interviews conducted with game industry representatives, the chapter traces the different roles and functions playing games has for game developers and how working in a game studio changes their playing habits over time. Developers appear aware of the trade-offs associated with playing games as part of their work and apply various strategies to preserve the joy and relevance of play.

The study of collocations with game component in the Russian and English-American discourse

The subject of this research is the polysemous noun “game” in the Russian language and the nouns “play”, “game”, “acting”,” performance” in the English language that correspond to different spheres of activity, denoted by the word “game”. The goal of this article consists in determination of most frequent universal collocations with game component in the Russian discourse and their translation equivalents with play, game, acting, and performance component in the English-American discourse. The collocations with game component formed by the scheme adjective + noun and noun + noun, acquired from the dictionaries, as well as Russian and English-American text corpora, served as the material for this research. The article employs the following methods: definitional analysis, contrastive analysis, and etymological analysis. The application of contrastive analysis allowed determining the linear and vector correspondences between the schemes of the indicated lexemes play, game, acting, and performance, as well as revealing the ethno-cultural lacunae. Examination of collocations with game component was conducted on the basis of the Russian National Corpus, Corpus of Historically American English, and Corpus of Contemporary American English; various dictionaries in the timespan (1810-1900) and (2000-2018). It was established that majority of the ten most frequent collocations according to the aforementioned schemes from the Russian National Corpus are present in the Corpus of Historically American English and Corpus of Contemporary American English in the same contexts, but different frequency. The article provides the examples of ethnocultural collocations with game components in the Russian and English-American discourse. It is demonstrated that collocation with the parametric adjectival “big game” has both universal and ethno-cultural characteristics in the English-American language. The relevance of the work is substantiated by recent interest in the development of collocation competence in learning a foreign language.
