Zabala-Vargas, Sergio Andres; García-Mora, Lewis; Arciniegas-Hernández, Edgar; Reina-Medrano, Jerson; de Benito-Crosetti, Bárbara; Darder-Mésquida, Antonia – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
The development of mathematical skills for future engineers is essential. Game-based learning (GBL) and gamification have been widely used in elementary education, but less applied in higher education. The objective of this article was to evaluate the effect of didactic strategies mediated by games in the teaching of mathematics in first-year…

Mark Applebaum – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2025
Students often perceive mathematics as a challenging and abstract subject, leading to disengagement and anxiety. To address these challenges, educators have increasingly turned to math games as a pedagogical tool to make learning more interactive and enjoyable. This paper explores the potential of math games, particularly Bachet's game, as…

Matheus A. Cezarotto; Pamela N. Martinez; Ruth Constansa Torres Castillo; Theodore Stanford; Christopher Engledowl; Germain Degardin; Barbara Chamberlin – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2024
Mathematical learning has an important role and is often prioritized in education. In K-16 education, algebra is one of the most vital mathematical content domains: it represents one of the top barriers for students pursuing a postsecondary education. Game-based learning has been effective in fostering classroom math learning environments that are…

Kim, Beaumie; Bastani, Reyhaneh; Takeuchi, Miwa A. – Pedagogies: An International Journal, 2023
In this article, we discuss embodied mathematical practices in the context of learners' board game (re)design activities. By focusing on "redesigning" a board game as a pedagogical approach, rather than designing one from scratch, we intended to limit the vast creative design possibilities and engage learners more deeply with the…

Quevedo Gutiérrez, Eduardo; Zapatera Llinares, Alberto – Education Sciences, 2021
The objective of this research is to study the "Scratch" programming language as a didactic tool to teach functions. The introduction of didactic tools allowing comprehension in simple and attractive ways is required. Given the traditional teaching/learning system, it is necessary to organize participatory and collaborative dynamic…
