Previous research has established the lack of motivation by primary education students vis-à-vis the acquisition of the necessary key competencies compulsory in the Spanish school curriculum and this is closely linked to poor academic performance on the part of the aforesaid students. Based on this current educational reality, we present a quantitative study regarding the perception of students after the implementation of a new gamified experience in the classroom such that it integrates, for the first time and jointly, the benefits of gamification (Deterding et al., 2011a; Deterding & Zagal, 2018) with interdisciplinary methodologies (Candel, 2018; Cruz-Pichardo & Cabero-Almenara, 2020; Flores-Aguilar, 2019) and technology-enhanced transmedia narratives (Scolari 2018a, 2018b; Jenkins, 2003; Scolari 2018a, 2018b). This integrative and innovative proposal was implemented in a primary school in Valencia (Spain) between October 2019 and February 2020. The research is designed based on survey-type studies, employing an experimental cross-sectional quantitative methodology with pretest and posttest, in addition to experimental and control groups. Regarding the cross-sectional approach, descriptive analyses (means and standard deviation) have been conducted, together with histograms of each of the items in the questionnaire, as well as the Student's t test and an analysis of variance, which is of significant value when working with independent samples from a normal distribution, as in our case. The instrument utilised in the present study confirms the existence of a high and adequate internal consistency (Alpha = .873). The results obtained, as presented herein, confirm that the incorporation of the gamified proposals in primary school classes, unprecedentedly intertwined with the benefits provided by interdisciplinary work and transmedia narratives, notably improves the students' training process and their motivation, while also contributing to the better acquisition of compulsory curricular contents and enhanced academic performance.

Del mismo modo que el cómic norteamericano ha contribuido al conocimiento de panteones mitológicos europeos como el nórdico o el griego, esta investigación analiza la presencia del panteón prehispánico en la narrativa gráfica a través del mito de Quetzalcóatl. Después de una revisión por sus múltiples naturalezas identitarias y la exposición de unos criterios de selección y de análisis, se lleva a cabo un recorrido por la presencia de esta deidad en diversas historietas. Nuestra propuesta de lectura está articulada para contribuir al conocimiento de una figura mitológica esencial mediante el cómic como recurso didáctico en distintos niveles educativos.

This paper reflects on the complex narrative universes of the youth trilogy written by Cecilia Eudave and consisting of La criatura del espejo, El enigma de la esfera and Pesadillas a mediodía. These three novels feature doctor Julia Dench, a psychologist who is an expert in paranormal cases who ventures into the mysterious territories of the teenage soul as she battles her own ghosts and demons. From the genres of horror, the fantastic or the unusual, games and prospects for building realities are activated in these novels in which Eudavian narrative mechanisms emerge.

This study is based on the need to work on the digital literacy of our Infant Education degree, Primary Education degree and Master in Secondary Education students so that, as future teachers, they are able to make the necessary transition from ICTs (Information and Communication Technologies) to LKTs (Learning and Knowledge Technologies) Through a mixed methodology, knowledge and perceptions of basic technological concepts and tools of our trainee teachers are identified. The instrument used has been a Likert scale questionnaire, adapted and validated by experts from the participating universities. Its internal consistency demonstrates its worth and functionality for the proposed analysis (α = 0.958). The first results show a clear lack of knowledge of certain technological concepts essential for their future teaching work and, in turn, show significant differences regarding the knowledge of ICTs according to the age of the participants.

La presente investigación forma parte del proyecto de innovación docente REDES financiado por la Universidad de Alicante, orientada a su alumnado de Grado de Primaria. A partir de la combinación de recursos literarios, geográficos y tecnológicos se han desarrollado contenidos curriculares de dos asignaturas troncales: "Didáctica de las Ciencias Sociales" y "Literatura para Primaria". Se trata de una investigación de tipo mixto (cuantitativa y cualitativa), con un cuestionario online y observación directa en el aula como instrumentos de análisis. Los resultados confirman el valor formativo de las experiencias interdisciplinares con TIC como una metodología innovadora en la formación del docente.
