    Gamification is a training model that encourages the inclusion of active methodologies into learning environments. The objective of this study is to analyze the effects of a gamified experience through virtual and face-to-face escape rooms as well as to determine the generated levels of fun, absorption, creative thinking, mastery, activation, absence of negative effects and student grades. A descriptive and correlational experimental design has been used. In total, 105 Spanish university students participated. The data was collected using a scale validated in the Spanish context called Gameful Experience in Gamification (GAMEX). The results reveal significant variability according to the training environment. In face-to-face environments, students’ fun and activation were promoted, generating pleasant entertainment experiences. In virtual environments, influence, autonomy, creativity, and exploration by students increased. Similarly, these environments shared high levels of spatio-temporal absorption and an absence of negative effects. Regarding the ratings, no statistically significant results that confirm their effectiveness depending on the environment were determined, but good scores were obtained. It is concluded that the choice of the gamified environment will depend on the dimensions and the goals that the teacher intends to achieve during the learning process.La gamificación es un modelo formativo que fomenta la inclusión de metodologías activas en los entornos de aprendizaje. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar los efectos de una experiencia gamificada a través de salas de escape virtuales y presenciales para determinar los niveles generados de diversión, absorción, pensamiento creativo, dominio, activación, ausencia de efecto negativo y calificaciones de los estudiantes. Se ha utilizado un diseño experimental de tipo descriptivo y correlacional. Han participado 105 estudiantes universitarios españoles. Los datos han sido recogidos mediante una escala validada al contexto español denominada Gameful Experience in Gamification (GAMEX). Los resultados revelan variabilidad significativa según el entorno formativo. De forma presencial se potencian la diversión y la activación de los estudiantes generando experiencias de entretenimiento placentero. De manera digital se incrementan la influencia, autonomía, la creatividad y exploración de los estudiantes. Asimismo, estos dos entornos comparten en común altos niveles de absorción espacio temporal y una ausencia de efecto negativo. En cuanto a las calificaciones, no se han determinado resultados estadísticamente significativos que constaten su eficacia según el entorno pero sí se obtienen buenas puntuaciones. Se concluye que la elección del entorno gamificado dependerá de las dimensiones que el docente pretenda alcanzar durante el proceso de aprendizaje

    The aim of this study is to design and validate an instrument that allows the evaluation of educational experiences and formative assessment in the metaverse from a holistic perspective. Hence, a research design based on the development of a scale has been used. Three hundred and sixty-two Spanish secondary school students participated in the study, selected through purposive sampling. The instrument created has been subjected to an analysis of content validity, validity by expert judgment, construct validity, and reliability. For data analysis, the SPSS and AMOS programs have been used. An exploratory factor analysis and a confirmatory factor analysis have been performed to determine the construct validity. In addition, the Cronbach's alpha has been calculated to verify the internal consistency of the tool. The results reveal several findings that position the resulting questionnaire as a valid and reliable instrument to evaluate educational experiences and practices in the metaverse. In short, this study has led to the development of a comprehensive evaluation tool at the service of educators or any institution interested in implementing its educational praxis within the metaverse, a field of research that has yet to be explored.GOAL!

    Educational technology is achieving great potential in the formative processes of today’s society. Flipped learning is considered as a pedagogical innovation derived from the technological influence in learning spaces. The general objective of the research is to analyze the e ectiveness of flipped learning on a traditional teaching and learning approach in the subject of Mathematics. To achieve this objective, an experimental design of a descriptive and correlational type has been followed through a quantitative research method. Two study groups have been set up. In the control group, the contents have been imparted from a traditional perspective, and in the experimental group, innovation has been applied through the use of flipped learning. The sample of participants has been chosen by means of intentional sampling and reached the figure of 60 students in the 4th year of Secondary Education at an educational center in Ceuta (Spain). A questionnaire has been used for data collection. The results reflect that the application of flipped learning has obtained better assessment in established attitudinal and mathematical indicators. It is concluded that with the use of flipped learning, motivation and skills are increased in the analysis and representation of graphs

    Twitch as a Techno-Pedagogical Resource to Complement the Flipped Learning Methodology in a Time of Academic Uncertainty

    Flipped learning methodology has the potential to be combined with a multitude of didactic actions and techno-pedagogical resources that are adapted to the needs of the student. Access to resources and training outside the classroom can be carried out from various platforms. Following this line, Twitch is an interactive video transmission platform that is presented as an interesting digital resource to enhance the motivation of students in turning over learning moments. The objective of the study is to analyze the motivation of students in two different methodological approaches, one traditional and the other innovative through the Twitch application. A quasi-experimental pre-post design was carried out. A total of 52 Spanish students from the fourth level of secondary education participated in the research. Data collection was carried out by adapting the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) instrument to the Spanish context. The results reflect higher levels of motivation in the implementation of Twitch with respect to its materialization without using said techno-pedagogical complement. This difference is especially significant in intrinsic motivation, since in the case of extrinsic motivation, the difference between both pedagogical proposals is smaller. In short, the implementation of Twitch in the flipped learning supposes an optimization of this pedagogical methodology, increasing the extrinsic and intrinsic motivation of the students and modifying the centers of interest of students from quantitative aspects to other, qualitative ones.I+D+i OTRI-Universidad de Granada CNT-431

    I+d+i Project oTRI-University of granada with financing code number 4995: Services related to the pilot phase of the evaluation of educational programs.Computers have evolved over the course of history through successive generations. The impact of this technology on society has revolutionised the way we communicate, participate in the political life of a country or access education. The potential of the computer in the field of education has been highlighted by last year's global event. The objective of the study is to analyze the literature on the term computer in the field of education (CoMPU-EdU) in the Web of Science database. for this, a bibliometric methodology based on a scientific mapping of the publications on the state of the question has been used. It has worked with an analysis unit of 10939 documents. The results indicate that research related to "computer" in education is mainly presented in English and in research articles. In addition, the journal with the most manuscripts on this line of research is Computer & Education. The analysis of the scientific evolution of this line of research shows that studies are mainly focused on teaching and learning processes, as well as on students' attitudes towards computer use. It can be concluded that the CoMPU-EdU investigations are currently at an inflection point, given that there is a downward trend, as far as production volume is concerned. The scientific community is beginning to focus its research on other more specific branches of computer, such as augmented reality or robotics. In addition, the scientific production of CoMPU-EdU in the 21th century focuses mainly on the attitudes of the members involved in the pedagogical act, on gender differences, on the elements of the teaching and learning processes - pedagogical methods and evaluation - and in the attention of students with special educational needs. Probably in the future the lines of research will begin to focus on self-regulation of learning, computational-thinking and gamification.Las computadoras han evolucionado a lo largo de la historia a través de generaciones sucesivas.

El potencial de la computadora en el campo de la educación ha sido destacado por el evento global del año pasado. El objetivo del estudio es analizar la literatura sobre el término informática en el campo de la educación (CoMPU-EdU) en la base de datos de Web of Science. Para ello se ha utilizado una metodología bibliométrica basada en un mapeo científico de las publicaciones sobre el estado de la cuestión. ha trabajado con una unidad de análisis de 10939 documentos. Los resultados indican que la investigación relacionada con la "computadora" en la educación se presenta principalmente en inglés y en artículos de investigación. Además, la revista con más manuscritos en esta línea de investigación es Computer & Education. El análisis de la evolución científica de esta línea de investigación muestra que los estudios se centran principalmente en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje, así como en las actitudes de los estudiantes hacia el uso de la computadora. Se puede concluir que las investigaciones CoMPU-EdU se encuentran actualmente en un punto de inflexión, dado que existe una tendencia a la baja, en lo que se refiere al volumen de producción. La comunidad científica empieza a centrar su investigación en otras ramas más específicas de la informática, como la realidad aumentada o la robótica. Además, la producción científica de CoMPU-EdU en el siglo XXI se centra principalmente en las actitudes de los integrantes involucrados en el acto pedagógico, en las diferencias de género, en los elementos de los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje - métodos pedagógicos y de evaluación - y en la atención de alumnos con necesidades educativas especiales. Probablemente en el futuro las líneas de investigación comiencen a centrarse en la autorregulación del aprendizaje, el pensamiento computacional y la gamificación.I+d+i Project oTRI-University of granada 499

    We acknowledge the researchers of the research group AREA (HUM-672), which belongs to the Ministry of Education and Science of the Junta de Andalucía and is registered in the Department of Didactics and School Organization of the Faculty of Education Sciences of the University of Granada.This review examines the current literature focused on nomophobia (objectives, methodological design, main variables, sample details, and measurement methods) in the Scopus and Web of Science databases. To this end, we conducted a systematic literature review in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews (PRISMA) guidelines. The initial sample consisted of 142 articles, of which 42 met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed in detail. The findings show that the current research is in an exploratory phase, with a greater predominance of descriptive, nonexperimental, and cross-sectional studies that explore the prevalence of nomophobia mainly in adolescents and university students. The most widely used measurement instrument is the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q) proposed by Yildrim and Correia. In addition, the research suggests that nomophobia negatively affects personality, self-esteem, anxiety, stress, academic performance, and other physical and mental health problems. We are therefore faced with a health problem, which negatively affects a person, causing psychological problems and physical and behavioral changes.This research has received public funding from the Ministry of Education of the Government of Spain (FPU14/04626)
