La gamificación en el aprendizaje de expresiones algebraicas en estudiantes de octavo año de educación general básica

Abstract

Abstract: The primary goal of this thesis was to examine the prevalence of gamification in the learning process of algebraic expressions with the students of eighth-grade of Basic Education at Ecuatoriano Suizo Private School . It was framed from the positivist paradigm using a quantitative approach, a quasi-experimental design with a level of correlational dimensions, for this reason, thirty students were taken as a sample for the experimental group and thirty for the official group. For them, a satisfaction survey was applied (to the experimental group only), which included a pre test and a post-test to determine whether or not the hypothesis was correct. Despite the fact that there was potential for improvement in the way successes were acknowledged and content was unlocked, the major findings showed that students expressed a high level of satisfaction with the dynamics, techniques, and components used in gamification. The experimental group's knowledge was shown to have significantly increased in terms of learning algebraic expressions. Thus, it can be said that gamification had a beneficial effect on the students of eighth grade of Basic Education at Ecuatoriano Suizo Private School .
