la gamificación para incentivar el aprendizaje activo en los estudiantes de segundo año de bachillerato del colegio “mario minuche”

Abstract

This research project emphasizes the effective use of gamification and its impact on strengthening the knowledge acquisition process in the area of computer science. The importance of incorporating ICT components into current classrooms to improve learning is highlighted, providing students with more elements of interaction with their teachers and facilitating the enhancement of digital skills. The current thesis research is based on the design, planning and construction of a gamified application called "NetQuiz", with the purpose of strengthening the knowledge in the computer science subject of second-year high school students at the "Mario Minuche" School. The application uses Flutter flow, and is designed to make learning computer science concepts more interactive and fun. Students can participate in gamified activities that allow them to learn while playing, solving challenges and earning virtual rewards. The main objective of this proposal is to increase students' interest and motivation towards learning computer science, promoting a dynamic and participatory educational environment. Gamification applied through the "NetQuiz" application seeks to transform the computer science teaching process into a more engaging and motivating experience for third-year high school students. To achieve the research goal, specific objectives were set, such as analyzing the educational needs of students, implementing "NetQuiz" as a support resource, and evaluating its effectiveness through observation guides and surveys. An approach was adopted that incorporates both qualitative and quantitative elements to obtain reliable data and a complete view of the results. To obtain data, meetings and interactions were held with both teachers and students. Improvement points were collected for the distribution and interface of the prototype, demonstrating its effectiveness in strengthening knowledge and achieving student participation and motivation.
