Towards a Web Application to Create Lottery Games for Educational Purposes

Abstract

This paper presents a proposal of a web application to create lottery games for educational purposes, which can be adapted to several disciplines. The paper presents various studies that prove that lottery games allow people to practice reading, writing and pronouncing a language. In addition, this game puts into practice visual and auditory perception, visual discrimination, visual and auditory memory, as well as motor coordination. The paper also makes a comparative analysis of digital tools similar to the proposal, and describes their main features, such as: administrator mode, interactive graphical interface, timer, language selection, sound, number of players, among others. The web application is planned to have two users: teachers and students. Teachers will be able to add their own cards (images) and audio files about their course topics, in order to create their own lotteries; while students will be able to play the different lotteries created by the teachers.
