Resumen

The manuscript aims to assess the perception of attitudes regarding the utilization of Quizizz in the English department of a Public Educational Institution. The research is notable for being a quantitative study of a fundamental nature, employing a non-experimental design. A survey consisting of 15 questions was administered. Simultaneously, it has obtained the endorsement of expert judges and a high level of reliability, as indicated by a Cronbach’s value of 0.911. Thus, we conducted our study with a population size of 300 and a sample size of 150 students, employing a non-probabilistic sampling method. Based on the data obtained, it can be concluded that the students’ opinion of the Quizizz tool’s usefulness in learning English at the Educational Institution was moderately positive, with a strong inclination and widespread acceptance. Overall, the behavioral component was the most prominent variable in the study. Ultimately, the utilization of gamification as a tool has a beneficial significance in facilitating the process of acquiring a foreign language by stimulating the learners’ motivation, cognitive abilities, behavioral patterns, and attitudes.
