Throughout this episode, Alejandro Lozano and Jes\u00fas Salinas reflect on the role of teachers and the integration of video games in education. Both emphasize the need to move beyond the superficial use of video games and commit to well-founded pedagogical approaches. <\/span>In this sense, Jes\u00fas Salinas underlines: “It’s not about using video games in the classroom, but about integrating them with a pedagogical purpose.”<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
