Explorando uso de prompts para ia generativa no auxílio aos estudos: desenvolvimento de um aplicativo educacional com flutter

Abstract

In light of the growing use of generative artificial intelligences in educational settings, this study presents the development of a system designed to promote critical engagement with these tools, addressing challenges such as technological dependence and diminished student scrutiny. A dialog-based application was built in Flutter, seamlessly integrating Google Gemini, the Google Books API, and the Google Search API. The solution employs personalized prompts as an intermediary mechanism, structured to guide users in source evaluation and in obtaining accurate, context-rich responses. To assess impact and acceptance, students, educators, and education professionals were invited to complete a brief survey combining satisfaction ratings and open-ended feedback. Results revealed strong enthusiasm: participants emphasized the application’s ability to deliver information rapidly while reliably pointing to credible sources. It is concluded that the proposed model offers a significant contribution to the responsible integration of artificial intelligence in education by fostering learner autonomy, critical thinking, and pedagogical effectiveness. Future work may explore voice recognition, enhanced accessibility features, and data-persistence capabilitie
