Resum

This study analyses how preservice mathematics teachers reflect on the incorporation of gamification in their teaching practices after participating in a training cycle focused on this active methodology. The cycle, applied to 31 students in the Secondary Mathematics Teacher Education Master’s programme in Catalonia, integrated game elements—such as narratives, quests, and badges—alongside the Didactical Suitability Criteria as a tool for developing competency in the analysis and evaluation of didactical suitability. The reasons preservice teachers provided for using gamification in mathematics teaching were analysed at two points: upon completing the training cycle and after implementing teaching proposals incorporating gamification with secondary education students in Catalonia. The results show that preservice teachers show an improvement in their reflective competency regarding gamification, as well as increased use of this active methodology. Additionally, the knowledge and competencies considered relevant by preservice teachers for working with gamification in mathematics teaching were identified. It is concluded that training in the use of gamification in mathematics teaching is necessary to apply this methodology appropriately, and that tools such as the Didactical Suitability Criteria are fundamental for reflection on, and improvement in, the use of active methodologies
