Abstract

DIAZ-LOPEZ, Mónica María  and  PIMIENTA RODRIGUEZ, Samuel Xavier. Requirements for Producing and Implementing Digital Educational Materials. REMS [online]. 2023, vol.37, n.3  Epub Sep 01, 2023. ISSN 1561-2902.

Introduction:

The digital revolution has reached the educational field and demands that digital educational environments generate powerful educational experiences. To carry out this process, it is essential to design and build a digital educational material adjusted to the technological, technical and pedagogical guidelines framed in the student’s neurobiology of learning.

Objective:

To evaluate the necessary elements for the production of an unpublished digital educational material, through its implementation in students.

Methods:

A quantitative analysis was performed through the Wilcoxon SR test using the IBM SPSS software, together with a qualitative analysis using the QDA Miner software. Subsequently, the data were triangulated.

Results:

The quantitative analysis yielded a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest (p < 0.001), as well as a median difference of 22.6%. The qualitative analysis permitted to define three categories: positive comments on the experience, the students' suggestions to the process, and technical difficulties encountered during the implementation.

Conclusions:

The students’ active interest in, motivation for, engagement towards and enjoyment of the learning process are evident, facts that provide a starting point for transforming educational practices with significant outcomes.

Keywords : gamification; educational technological tools; educational innovation; neurobiology of learning.
