Abstract

Gamification has been incorporated into Science and Biology education through different strategies and elements, offering possibilities for increasing student engagement and diversifying teaching practices. This study aimed to analyze recent scientific literature on the topic, identifying the strategies and elements employed, pedagogical evidence, implementation conditions, limitations, and research gaps. An integrative review with a qualitative and descriptive approach was conducted, comprising nine articles published between 2021 and 2026. The studies describe approaches combining quizzes, challenges, missions, points, rewards, feedback, narratives, and competition. The findings converge mainly on student engagement, motivation, participation, and interaction, whereas evidence related to content understanding is more heterogeneous. It is concluded that outcomes depend on implementation conditions and that further research using more systematic assessment procedures and producing more consistent empirical evidence is needed.
