Resumen
Con el propósito de mejorar las habilidades de escritura, este estudio da a conocer las contribuciones del uso de juegos interactivos en línea al desarrollo de la habilidad de escritura de párrafos descriptivos en estudiantes de tercer grado del Colegio Colombo Gales. Este estudio fue ejecutado con 31 estudiantes entre 8 y 9 años de edad. Las encuestas, el diario del profesor y los artefactos fueron utilizados para recolectar datos. Se encontró que los juegos interactivos en línea generaron interés e influyeron en el desarrollo de la escritura en los estudiantes de tercer grado como resultado de prácticas guiadas que mejoraron dichas habilidades.
