La gamificación nace como una herramienta de innovación educativa con la finalidad de mejorar las competencias en la educación. En este trabajo se propone llevar a cabo una revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre la gamificación para la innovación educativa centrándose en investigaciones que hayan explorado los efectos de la gamificación en estudiantes de secundaria y universitarios. Se utilizó el método de Kitchenham & Carters con el planteamiento de tres preguntas directrices, en base a aspectos como enfoques, metodologías y aportes al proceso enseñanza-aprendizaje. Como resultado se identificaron 26 documentos, bajo los criterios de inclusión y exclusión, se evaluaron e interpretaron los hallazgos en la bibliografía científica que se encontró en las bases de datos electrónicas IEEE, Springer y ScienceDirect de los últimos 5 años. Los resultados apuntan a que la gamificación es una herramienta valiosa para la innovación educativa puesto que aumenta la motivación, el compromiso, el aprendizaje activo, la retroalimentación inmediata, la colaboración y la personalización.

Gamification is the most active methodology utilized in the E-learning environment for teaching-learning in computing; however, this does not restrict its use in other areas of knowledge. Gamification combines elements of play and its design techniques in a non-ludic context, achieving a motivation factor for the students. This systematic study aimed to collect and synthesize scientific evidence from the gamification field for learning programming through the E-learning environment. In order to do this, a systematic literature review was done, following the guidelines proposed by Petersen, which propose the definition of questions, search strategies, inclusion/exclusion criteria, and characterization. As a result of this process, eighty-one works were completely reviewed, analyzed, and categorized. The results revealed favorable learning among the students, the most used platforms and gamification elements, the most used languages and focuses of programming, and the education level, where gamification is most used to learn to program in an E-learning environment. These findings evidenced that gamification is a good active strategy for introducing beginning students to programming through an E-learning environment. Within this context, Learning programming through the use of gamification is a topic that is growing and taking force, and after what occurred during the pandemic, it is projected that there will continue to be more students who are focused on understanding its implementation and the impact it has on the different levels of education and the areas of knowledge.

The complicated, boring problems in computer science learning make them lack motivation during the COVID-19 pandemic. The further exciting and appealing educational setting is the more significant learners' participation in the learning challenge. A traditional setting was not appealing too much, creating a dull environment that has no learning motivation. Gamification is often used as an instrument for motivating learners and increasing their commitment. A study analyzes several previous research types in this field to assess gamification's effect on higher education students in a computer science course. The results conclude that gamification enhances the interest and encouragement of the learners. Also, it improves computer science curriculum training and knowledge of a complicated topic, providing learners with optional barriers. While they are beneficial, pedagogical games may have drawbacks that impact either emotionally and physically learners. The most popular gamification elements used during computer science classes were badges, leaderboards, score, level, and feedback. They were the most commonly known feature of the game in learning computer science. Implementing components of gamification in education is a resource that can motivate learners in computer science education. Gamification can give positive outcomes for student's achievement and the teaching and learning process framework, which teachers increasingly accept. Further research is required to determine if this transforms into an effect on finished performance and governs particular group impacts. Students' academic achievement and results in the computer science curriculum must develop a broader amount of knowledge on the utility through gamification.
