Abstract

Objective: to present the construction, application and evaluation of a gamified education strategy of scientific methodology to nursing undergraduate students.
Method: diagnosis of the problems of the Scientific Methodology Discipline of the nursing course of the Universidade do Estado do Pará; construction of the strategy; application in six classes over three semesters, between 2017 and 2018; evaluation of the impacts and acceptance.
Results: construction of a system of heuristic evolution, with repercussions on assiduity and punctuality and positive self-evaluation of the strategy.
Final Considerations: the gamified strategy has proved to be effective in improving the engagement of nursing undergraduate students and with potential to be an innovating pedagogical tool in nursing education. The adoption of a heuristic evolution structure distances this strategy from artificial initiatives with isolated use of game elements. More rigid evaluations, with control group, are still needed.
