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. El alumnado suele tener una percepción negativa de la historia debido a la metodología tradicional empleada en la mayoría de las aulas. El objetivo de esta investigación cuasiexperimental fue comprobar si las percepciones sobre la historia del alumnado de educación primaria mejoraban tras la implementación de un proyecto gamificado en el aula, comparándolo con un grupo control que siguió una metodología tradicional. Para ello, los discentes completaron una escala de valoración tipo Likert antes y después de la intervención en el aula. Los resultados mostraron diferencias significativas en la comparación intergrupal (postest) e intragrupal del grupo experimental (pretest-postest). Esta primera aproximación al tema  busca despertar el interés para nuevas investigaciones que superen una de las limitaciones de este estudio, como lo es el tamaño de la muestra.   Os estudantes costumam ter uma percepção negativa da história devido à metodologia tradicional utilizada na maioria das salas de aula. O objetivo desta pesquisa quase experimental foi verificar se as percepções sobre a história dos alunos do Ensino Primário melhoravam após a implementação de um projeto gamificado em sala de aula, comparando-o com um grupo controle que seguiu uma metodologia tradicional. Para isso, os discentes completaram uma escala de avaliação tipo Likert antes e depois da intervenção em sala de aula. Os resultados mostraram diferenças significativas na comparação intergrupal (pós-teste) e intragrupal do grupo experimental (pré-teste-pós-teste). Esta pesquisa é uma primeira aproximação a esta questão, mas espera despertar o interesse para a realização de futuras pesquisas que permitam superar as limitações próprias deste estudo, como é o tamanho da amostra.
