The use of the game and the cooperative Methodology in Highet Educatio: An alternative for creative teaching

Abstract

The rise of ICT and new teaching strategies in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) demand a structural change in the way of conceiving the teaching-learning process in higher education. For this reason, it is necessary to encourage the formation of the university students-future teachers of primary education-as experts in the use of technological tools. In this context, we propose a proposal for educational innovation, which unites the learning based on the Games (AbJ) and the cooperative and communicative methodology, with the purpose of educating in the knowledge, competencies and skills marked in the curriculum of musical education.. It aims to improve the teaching praxis allowing a more motivating and meaningful learning to the students to improve their didactic process through the development of the digital competition and the gamification. The results of our research show the effectiveness of the cooperative and recreational methodology, which is presented as an alternative.
