Abstract
This work proposes an online application that allows simulating an environment of business competition with the exploitation of natural resources, involving various variables that can be considered in the modeling of systems behavior, useful in subjects of systemic thinking, to facilitate the participants, the understanding of a system, as a set of parts and their relationships, making up a whole. As a development methodology, the concept of gamification was considered, which is why elements of said didactic strategy are incorporated; subsequently, the digital resource was developed using the tools of the Google Workspace platform to build a purely virtual environment and finally, a psychological instrument was incorporated to gather information that allows validating the performance of the resource. In a first implementation, data was collected from a group of visiting students at the University of Antioquia from which the mathematical models that condition the behavior of the simulated system were reviewed and adjusted, in such a way that the "chaos" start displaying from 7 game periods onwards; In the implementation of the psychological instrument, it was found that for the majority, the activity was effective in terms of promoting theoretical knowledge, technological skills, communication and collaborative work, learning and self-pace
