  • Descrição: Abstract In this article it is proposed the use of a didactic game as a methodological complementation to teach High Energy Physics, addressing the theme of Elementary Particle Physics. The idea is to use playful and fun strategies to teach phenomena studied in the Hadron Large Collider (LHC), leading the participants to make new scientific discoveries, acquire knowledge and construct concepts that will be used in the formulation of the Higgs boson theory and its detection in the ATLAS experiment. Although such concepts have an extremely complex quantitative description, to some extent rooted in experimental analysis, it is possible to make it qualitatively accessible without having to resort to advanced mathematical formulations, while retaining its technical character.
