Abstract

Chemical Jury: A Ludic Activity for Discussing Chemical Concepts – This paper presents a ludic activity to be carried out in the classroom and consists in the setting of a simulated jury. The class is divided into three distinct groups. The first group defends a water bottler, the second group, a battery plant and the third acts as the jury. The students personify the functions of the defense lawyer, prosecuting attorney and several witnesses. The teacher personifies the judge of the activity and decides who, in the end, contaminated the fictional city of Nucleopolis. The work also discusses the ludic function as a tool for cognitive development
