Abstract

The arrival of the covid-19 pandemic has brought with it changes in all areas of life, including education at all levels. The need for the abrupt incorporation of technological means into educational processes could have been uncomfortable for a large group of students and teachers. However, it contains a series of benefits, which must be taken advantage of in order to improve the level and quality of education. This article aims to demonstrate innovative educational techniques, through the incorporation of games into university educational processes, hand in hand with the use of new communication technologies as tools. Specifically, we will refer to the incorporation of the Institutional Kahoot Platform at the University of Atacama, and the possibility of using the technique known as gamification through it.

Keywords:

Gamification, technology, legal pedagogy, legal education, Kahoot platform.
