Abstract:

In this paper is presented the main stages in the development of Proj-Elétrica, a virtual environment in the form of a serious game designed to assist in the teaching and learning process of residential electrical installations projects. The game was developed using the Construct 2©platform. By playing Proj-Elétrica, users can test their knowledge of electrical installations by completing the electrical layout elements of the rooms in a house. The variation in room layouts allows for the exploration of different conduit arrangements, enhancing the player’s understanding of the subject. The developed game serves as a facilitating tool for the study of electrical installations and can be used to improve the teaching and learning experience for both teachers and students. Furthermore, Proj-Elétrica is also valuable for reaching out to graduated engineers and technicians who may not be seeking to learn but wish to review concepts related to residential electrical installations projects.
