Gamificación como herramienta en enseñanza de matemáticas, cuarto y quinto año de educación básica, Escuela "Ciudad de Pasaje", 2023-2024

Abstract

In the methodology, the descriptive level has been selected because the application of interviews and surveys will be involved, in addition to the explanatory level because the connection between the dependent and independent variable is presented. For the research modality, field design and bibliographic design were chosen. The techniques used were the interview and the survey, being fundamental to obtain adequate results as rigorous evidence to argue the objective set in a probabilistic population of 96 students selected as a study sample. This research is elaborated from the diagnosis under study, followed by the identification of the central problem, whose purpose is to determine the contribution of Gamification in the teaching of Mathematics in the fourth and fifth year of Basic Education, School Ciudad de Pasaje, period 2023 – 2024. In addition, the corresponding variables were delimited, which are Gamification and Mathematics Teaching, followed by the realization of the theoretical framework according to the specified order. According to the testimonies obtained with the application of the data collection instruments, they allow us to state that teachers know and agree on the application of this innovative tool known as Gamification, which they cannot include in their class hours due to the scarcity of technological resources at the institutional level. In the same way, students claim to have a connection with the subject of mathematics by stating that they are amused and interested but at the same time it does not meet the required demands, because there comes a point in the class when they notice a boredom due to the simplicity of it, which may soon lead them to disengagement from the teaching-learning process, generating disinterest and demotivation at the time of covering the area of mathematics. The virtual blog has an efficient impact on teaching practice by improving the teaching-learning process of mathematics complying with the demands of the educational community, it has a detailed explanation of the meaning of gamification, three virtual platforms based on gamification are presented to improve the development of logic - mathematics skills, In the same way, three activities are presented by platforms with their respective academic objective and a detailed explanation with words and images of how to make use of them, and finally a conclusion of the support provided by this dynamic.
