Abstract: MOTIVATIC WEB is a software platform in which teachers can co-design activities for their students using three different gamified mechanics. This article presents the results of the technology acceptance evaluation by users. The evaluation considered aspects related to perceived usefulness (PU) and ease of use, behavioural intention to use, and external variables related to user experience, functionality, and web platform visual aesthetics (VA), aspects adapted from the TAM model. A qualitative analysis instrument was applied to 21 higher education professors from five different countries, experts in the areas of economic and administrative sciences, industrial engineering, basic sciences and medical sciences. The results indicate that the PU and ease of use of the software are related to the intention to use it. It shows that the software is efficient as an educational support resource, allowing the design of certain mechanics for students as well as communication and collaboration among teachers.
