As an emerging technology in the area of education we have serious games, in which are the so-called exergames, video games for exercise. Through these games, it is intended to stimulate physical activity using interactive environments that allow an immersive experience that can simulate the sensation of presence. The educational exergames combine elements of video games (which include physical challenges), with learning games (which are cognitively reliable), through the use of mobile devices, augmented reality and applications can be planned exergame activities, allowing physical activity, use methodology of games and that at the same time allow an alternative and complementary method in the teaching - learning process. The present research shows the results obtained from an activity that involves exergames with the students of the first semester of the Metropolitan University while they took their exam; the results obtained allow us to see the effectiveness of gamifying non-ludic activities in education with positive effects. |
