Resumen

Este artículo presenta una revisión sistemática sobre la gamificación en educación formal desde una perspectiva de pedagogía general, considerando estudios publicados entre 2020 y 2025. Se aplicó la metodología PRISMA para identificar, seleccionar y sintetizar evidencia en bases y repositorios académicos, con criterios de inclusión centrados en intervenciones empíricas y resultados de aprendizaje y motivación. La síntesis muestra una tendencia mayoritariamente positiva: la gamificación suele asociarse con mejoras en desempeño, participación y compromiso, especialmente cuando se diseña como progresión didáctica con metas claras, retroalimentación inmediata y retos graduales. No obstante, se observó heterogeneidad por nivel educativo, área disciplinar y diseño metodológico, así como riesgos de ansiedad o efectos diferenciales cuando predomina la competencia pública. En conjunto, los hallazgos respaldan integrar la gamificación como componente de diseño instruccional alineado al currículo y a la evaluación formativa, acompañado de formación docente y criterios de inclusión. Se proponen líneas futuras orientadas a diseños controlados, seguimiento temporal y mediciones comparables. Además, se recomienda reportar con detalle los elementos de juego y analizar moderadores como duración, género, y contexto tecnológico.
