Empowering teachers to apply gamification

When gamification emerged in education created high expectations about its effects on student motivation. But the lack of digital tools, the planning difficulties, and the limited knowledge available, led to some scepticism after the initial euphoria. Currently, available digital tools are suitable for the implementation of gamification in the educational context. But it is necessary to train teachers, to introduce this methodology in the classroom effectively. This paper presents a teachers training about gamification.
