Análisis del videojuego Red Dead Redemption 2 como propuesta de objetos renovables de aprendizaje

Abstract

This article examines the educational potential of the video game Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2) as a source of renewable learning objects (RLOs). It highlights the evolution of video games as multifaceted tools that can enhance learning, especially in the field of information and communication technologies (ICT). It argues that RDR2 offers an immersive experience that can be leveraged to teach various topics, from history to ecology. The methodology combines descriptive, exploratory, and quantitative approaches to analyze the game and design educational activities in Google Classroom. The results suggest that RDR2 can be a valuable educational tool, provided it is integrated appropriately into the academic curriculum and potential limitations, such as participant availability and individual biases, are addressed.
