The project have evaluated the left and right hands performance by using scissors, can openers and testing pull, push and torque forces.After that I started researching about games and education.I did a large bibliography revision to contextualize and get a research method that would work nicely. Then, I did a 100 interviews with Brazilian kids, in which 50 was from public schools, and 50 was from private.The research got results about characters, story themes, board games, RPG games, clothing and costumes design, and traced a correlation with what game feature motivates children to study.I also did a research about pedagogic methods that correlate in games made for education. The results are 24 parameters to make educational games for kids between 5 and 12 years old, and all the research can be found at UNESP (Estate University of São Paulo) library, and FAPESP.
