Abstract

LONDONO VASQUEZ, Laura Marcela  and  ROJAS LOPEZ, Miguel David. From Games to Gamification: A Proposal for an Integrated Model. Educ. Educ. [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.3, pp.493-512.  Epub May 03, 2021. ISSN 0123-1294.  https://doi.org/10.5294/edu.2020.23.3.7.

The interest in game-related topics within educational processes is due to numerous proposals that emerged in the 1960s and their applicability to different disciplines, such as military, health, social sciences, and engineering. This paper shows the evolution from the primary form of the game to current concepts such as serious games and gamification. It presents a theoretical review of various studies conducted in the field of gaming in education, its characteristics, and its applications. Then, it proposes an integrating theoretical model of the concepts associated with gaming in education, which account for the learning-fun relationships.

Keywords : Activity learning; school didactics; gamification; educational games; teaching methods; teaching technics.
