Gamification has come to evolve the way of teaching, since we are in an era where children want to learn in a playful way, they want to be active and it is very important that we develop in them autonomy, learning by discovery and independence, so it is important to apply gamification in the classroom and also at home, developing both didactic or digital games where the student learns new knowledge but having fun and that will motivate him to keep doing it.
