Abstract

In collaborative board games, players need to use strategies to cooperate and win the game together. The ability of board games to potentially address any theme, their popularity and their strategic nature, make them a basis for the development of active methodologies in Education. This article aims to show the use of a game of this type, entitled Salve a Terra!, focused on environmental sustainability. The results indicate that the use of games is recommended for the creation of active teaching methodologies.
