Abstract(s)
O projeto tem por objetivo, educar crianças de 5 e 6 anos sobre segurança, através de uma narrativa transmédia. Perante o crescente uso de dispositivos digitais e a perda de relevância da leitura tradicional entre as crianças, este projeto busca promover o desenvolvimento infantil saudável, incentivando a imaginação, a socialização e a atividade física.
Ao longo da narrativa, as crianças completam diversas tarefas, que incluem brincar com uma casa de cartão, interagir com personagens de madeira, preencher uma lista de verificação e finalizar exercícios do livro. O objetivo consiste em ajudar a super-heroína Mary Kate a capturar os três vilões – Fogo, Eletricidade e a Água e, ao mesmo tempo, aprender sobre segurança. Após completarem as atividades, as crianças são recompensadas com uma moeda de ""Inspetor de Segurança Nível 1"", uma t-shirt e um certificado.
Além do livro, o projeto utiliza media secundários, como um canal YouTube com coreografias de dança das personagens e o merchandising, nomeadamente roupas e jogos para crianças. O projeto oferece uma abordagem transmédia, com o objetivo de educar, e interagir com as crianças utilizando diferentes média.
Deste modo, a autora espera não só entreter, mas também educar as crianças sobre segurança, promovendo uma consciencialização que poderá contribuir para a redução dos acidentes infantis. Serve ainda como modelo para futuras iniciativas educacionais como narrativas transmédia que promovam a saúde e segurança das crianças.
A importância deste projeto é particularmente relevante no contexto da União Europeia e Portugal, onde os acidentes são uma das principais causas de mortalidade infantil, resultando em milhares de mortes e internamentos anuais.
The project aims to educate 5 and 6-year-old children about safety through a transmedia narrative. Given the increasing use of digital devices and the declining relevance of traditional reading among children, this project seeks to promote healthy childhood development by encouraging imagination, socialization and physical activity. Throughout the narrative, they complete various tasks, including playing with a cardboard house, interacting with wooden characters, filling out a checklist and completing book exercises. The goal is to help superheroine Mary Kate capture three villains – Fire, Electricity and Water, while simultaneously learning about safety. Upon completing the activities, children are rewarded with a "Level 1 Safety Inspetor" coin, a t-shirt and a certificate. In addition to the book, the project utilizes secondary media, such as a YouTube channel with characters' dance choreographies and merchandise, including children's clothing and games. The project offers a transmedia approach aimed at educating and engaging with children through different media. Thus, the author hopes not only to entertain but also to educate children about safety, fostering awareness that could contribute to reducing childhood accidents. It also serves as a model for future educational initiatives that use transmedia narratives to promote children's health and safety. The importance of this project is particularly relevant in the context of the European Union and Portugal, where accidents are one of the leading causes of child mortality, resulting in thousands of deaths and hospitalizations annually.
