Abstract

This thesis examines, from theoretical and methodological perspectives, the development of students' competencies in algorithmic thinking, problem-solving, and code writing through the creation of educational games in JavaScript. The principles of Game-Based Learning (GBL), the pedagogical potential of simple JavaScript games, and the ways to integrate them into the classroom are analyzed.
