Sumari:Students often have a negative perception of history due to the traditional methodology employed in most classrooms. The objective of this quasi-experimental research was to establish whether elementary students’ perceptions of history improved after a gamified project was introduced into the classroom, compared to a control group that followed a traditional methodology. Students completed a questionnaire on a Likert scale before and after the classroom intervention. The results showed significant differences between the groups (posttest) and within the experimental group (pretest-posttest). This initial exploration of this issue hopes to arouse interest for new research able to overcome the limitations of this study, such as the sample size.
