Gamification as a Learning Strategy in the Training of B1 English Learners

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

Throughout the years, education has been exposed to constant changes AQ1 and it is imperative to implement new and modern pedagogical models. Traditional teaching needs new innovative and technological elements to complement the learning process. Education has the challenge of transforming the processes by which we acquire knowledge and, in turn, be available to meet all current and AQ2 future needs of society. We have faced a new economic and scientific reality and a new way of relating to each other as people. Technology has gained ground in all areas of human beings and their way of interacting. In this way, gamification has become a learning tool in the educational field as a support to traditional teaching. Based on this problem, this study aims to examine this and other educational techniques and compare their influence on the teaching-learning process of B1 level English learners. Its review is based on a quantitative and descriptive study. As a result, gamification proves to be a versatile tool to create content based on specific interests and needs that improve performance and motivation to learn a new language.
