Cases on Historical Thinking and Gamification in Social Studies and Humanities Education
Research on history education and historical thinking is becoming increasingly relevant internationally. The need for a renewal of history education is not only justified by the epistemology of history itself, but also by the demand for a methodological change in education in general, making students active protagonists in the construction of their learning and based on the development of competencies. Further study on the potential use of gamification within social studies and humanities education is required to understand its benefits and challenges.

Nivel cognitivo y competencias de pensamiento histórico en los libros de texto de Historia de España e Inglaterra. Un estudio comparativo = Cognitive level and historical thinking competencies in history textbooks from Spain and England. A comparative study
El objetivo de este artículo es analizar las actividades de los libros de texto de Historia de España e Inglaterra para comprobar su nivel cognitivo y la presencia de competencias de pensamiento histórico. Se han analizado 4602 actividades de manuales escolares de ambos países para comparar en qué medida se promueve el pensamiento histórico y habilidades cognitivas complejas en cada país. Para conseguir este objetivo se han analizado tres variables: tipología de actividad, nivel cognitivo de la actividad y la presencia de conceptos históricos de primer y segundo orden. Los resultados muestran que existen diferencias entre España e Inglaterra en relación a la complejidad de las actividades y al desarrollo y evaluación del pensamiento histórico a través de las mismas. Este estudio concluye destacando la necesidad de replantear la enseñanza de la historia a través del trabajo con fuentes primarias y otras destrezas de pensamiento histórico que permitan el desarrollo de competencias históricas y la resolución de actividades con un mayor nivel de complejidad.
