Resumo

Jogos são benéficos para a aprendizagem de línguas, pois facilitam a comunicação rica e autêntica e promovem práticas colaborativas as quais têm efeito positivo na aprendizagem de línguas. No entanto, a maioria dos estudos envolvendo jogos para a aprendizagem de L2 conduzidos até o momento tem se concentrado em alunos de níveis intermediário ou avançado e, sabemos muito pouco sobre a maneira como esses tipos de jogos podem ser usados com alunos iniciantes. Este estudo investiga alunos iniciantes de língua espanhola jogando um jogo baseado em tarefas em que eles interagem através de um avatar com personagens do jogo em um contexto de estudo no exterior. Embora o jogo tenha sido projetado para jogar individualmente, nossa hipótese é que jogar em pares promove mais negociação de linguagem, o que incentiva a aprendizagem de uma língua (SWAIN, 2000). Quatro turmas do primeiro semestre de uma universidade dos Estados Unidos participaram desta pesquisa. Duas turmas participaram como grupo controle realizando atividades na Internet, mas não o jogo, e duas turmas jogaram o jogo, uma individualmente e a outra em pares. A gramática, o vocabulário, a leitura e a escrita dos alunos foram comparados após o tratamento. Além disso, questionários foram aplicados antes e depois da intervenção para investigar as opiniões dos alunos sobre o jogo e verificar se essas opiniões haviam mudado após o jogo. Os alunos que jogaram em pares superaram os grupos em todas as medidas, porém as diferenças não foram estatisticamente significativas. Os resultados mostram um claro contraste na perspectiva dos alunos que jogaram individualmente e em pares. Além disso, a análise qualitativa dos dados revelou múltiplos episódios de língua que, como foi demonstrado, são benéficos para a aprendizagem de línguas.
