La gamificación como estrategia efectiva para el aprendizaje de adición y sustracción de polinomios algebraicos

Abstract

Abstract: This research implements gamification strategies with Kahoot and Quizizz to improve learning the addition and subtraction of polynomials in high school students (8th, 9th, 10th) of the Pedro Fermín Cevallos Educational Unit. Objectives were set specifics such as reviewing and comparing teaching strategies, measuring academic performance through pretest and posttest tests, and evaluate student perception and satisfaction. The methodology included quantitative and qualitative approaches, using SPSS for the analysis of data. The results showed significant improvements in the motivation and participation of the students, with an increase of 2.36 points in average grades. However, the note posttest overall average (6.77 out of 10) indicated the need for additional efforts. The Technological and connectivity limitations in the rural region underscore the need to improve infrastructure for future educational applications. In conclusion, gamification It is effective in improving mathematics education, but requires adjustments and complements to optimize its effectiveness. This study suggests future research on the integration of gamification with other educational methodologies and the development of solutions adapted to rural environments.
