Abstract

Teaching experience in quantitative subjects reveals recurrent difficulties among students regarding mental calculation, identification of numerical inconsistencies, and written expression. To address these challenges, this proposal implements a gamification‑based approach inspired by the “Numbers and Letters” game. The project develops skills in arithmetic reasoning, interpretation of results, and lexical enrichment through numerical and linguistic challenges integrated throughout the course. Findings indicate improvements in students’ ability to perform mental calculations, detect logical errors, and articulate written responses with greater clarity, precision, and disciplinary vocabulary.
