The study, set in Latin America, aims to assess how Quizizz influences students' motivation and English skills, utilizing a quantitative methodology with a quasi-experimental design. It examines the engagement and performance of 197 students in reading and writing tasks, revealing significant improvements and high acceptance of the gamified learning platform.
