With this work, we contributed to the delivery of a didactic booklet translated into Portuguese, English and Spanish that allows teachers to apply gamification elements in their classes. We proposed a disconnected gamified lesson design teaching material based on five gamification projects. Our resources can also help and guide non-computing teachers to gamify their classes in a disconnected, user-centric, and contextfree way. The main objective of this work was to provide resources for teachers who want to gamify their classes in an unplugged way, regardless of their areas, courses or area of specialization. We also understand that people are different in many ways, such as preferences for staying motivated. Thus, the application of gamified strategies must be user-oriented to promote the chance of its effectiveness. This booklet emerged from a training course offered to 15 teachers who learned: (i) the concept of gamification, (ii) how to identify the profile of students and their importance in designing gamified learning experiences, (iii) existing gamification elements and how they are organized into the five designs suggested by Toda et al. [30] and (iv) create free context lessons based on each of the designs.
