La gamificación como estrategia para el aprendizaje de Física

Abstract

Numerous studies show the disinterest or the negative evaluation that students have towards the learning of the subject of physics and although this perception is provoked by diverse situations, it can´t be left aside that this affects the motivation of the students and consequently in learning. For this reason the objective of this study was to identify if the use of gamification in the classes influences the motivation of young people and thus be able to encourage them a positive view of the subject of physics, therefore in this investigation implemented a methodology based on gamification which includes the planning, design and application of three games over a semester in which participated 50 students of the subject of Physics II of the Escuela Nacional Colegio de Ciencias y Humanidades plantel Vallejo, obtaining as a result that the use of gamification indicates that it is a motivating element since it provokes a gratifying experience in the students.
