Abstract

This article presents a study that investigated the use of Minecraft Education associated with the PDCA cycle as a game-based learning strategy in the context of professional training. The study involved 19 students from the Professional Learning Qualification in Administrative Services course and a professor. Participants were divided into teams and used the Minecraft Education platform to build the institution’s building, following the steps of the PDCA cycle. Questionnaires were applied to students to collect their perceptions about the use of Minecraft Education, the benefits and challenges faced in applying the PDCA cycle. The results indicated a positive receptivity from students regarding the use of Minecraft Education, highlighting creativity, collaboration and engagement. Students acquired relevant skills such as critical thinking, problem solving and teamwork.
