A clear example of gamification is the application of Kahoot! . This tool allows you to create questions with different answers so that players try to answer correctly. The score is based on the speed of the contestants and the number of correct answers they get. This tool is already implemented in education as we have been able to experience the students of this university in different subjects. This type of game is a clear example of gamification because it combines rankings and punctuation with learning and fun. It is an easy and entertaining way to educate and learn.
The reason why I choose this example is because I believe that its design is accurate and simple. It is striking with different colors but it does not have excessive elements that confuse users. It is easy to use, both to create the quizes and to participate in them. It uses different colors and sounds but has continuity throughout the game which helps the participants not to be confused with the answers or the way of playing.
Kahoot! Use competitiveness among students to motivate them to participate in the game. Teachers can do the quizes in class and even send them as homework assignments. It is a way to ensure that students learn and do their work for fun. In my opinion, Kahoot! It is a very useful tool, because from the experience itself, it is fun to participate and you learn a lot because you pay attention to the questions you have well and above all, remember the ones you did not have well due to the fact of not being successful. Thanks to the competitiveness it produces among the students, they try harder to try to guess the questions, create tension among the participants and also encourage the participation of all.
I therefore consider that the strategy carried out by Kahoot! It is right because it has proven to be effective for both teachers and students.
