| description | In this new era of the 21st century when societies are constantly changing, education is the cornerstone to provide the people not only with the basic knowledge and tools, but also with the required skills for facing the challenges in a globalized world. Thus, video games have evolved from distractive activities, to more valuable tools. These tools can play a leading role in education-related processes, for example, supporting teaching tasks. The aim of this article is to present a state of art review on several particular experiences in which video games have been incorporated into teaching and learning activities. As a result, video games can be used as didactic mechanisms that help students, among other things, to solve learning problems, to improve motor and cognitive skills, and to foster creativity. |

En esta nueva era del siglo XXI, cuando las sociedades están en constante cambio, la educación es el pilar para desarrollar no solo los conocimientos básicos y los instrumentos de cada una de las áreas del saber, sino también las habilidades que capaciten a la persona para desenvolverse en un mundo globalizado, en el que la comunicación y la socialización son herramientas fundamentales. En este escenario, los juegos de vídeo han pasado de ser simplemente un elemento de distracción para convertirse en valiosas herramientas, demostrando incluso que pueden desempeñar un papel protagónico en procesos relacionados con la educación, y como apoyo a las tareas docentes. Bajo esta premisa, el objetivo de este artículo es presentar una revisión sobre diversas experiencias particulares en las que se han incorporado videojuegos en las actividades de enseñanza y aprendizaje. Como resultado se evidencia que estas herramientas tecnológicas pueden ser utilizadas como mecanismos didácticos que ayudan, entre otras cosas, a la resolución de problemas de aprendizaje, al mejoramiento de las habilidades motoras y cognitivas, y al fomento de la creatividad.
