Gamificación como herramienta dinamizadora en la enseñanza de Expresiones Algebraicas polinómicas

Abstract

Abstract: Within the framework of this research, the impact of gamification on the learning algebraic expressions involving monomials and polynomials in higher basic education students. For this, an educational intervention was designed based on gamification and the academic performance of an experimental group was compared with another control group that received traditional instruction. Which was carried out in the Educational unit Little Prince and Marcel Laniado de Wind , which is an educational institution of International Baccalaureate in the province of El Oro and the city of Machala. The results obtained after the implementation of the classes in the different groups, revealed that the students in the experimental group obtained higher scores in evaluation tests, suggesting that gamification may be a strategy effective in improving understanding and performance in this area of ​​mathematics. Furthermore, participants in the experimental group expressed greater satisfaction with class dynamics and greater motivation to learn. These findings support the idea that gamification can be a valuable tool to transform teaching of mathematics, making it more attractive and effective for students.
