Motivation is of utmost importance for students' academic learning, because it constitutes the starting point for learning, creates the impulse to act, and makes the acquisition of significant knowledge possible. The objective of the research was to analyze how motivation influences the academic learning of high school students at the Dr. Gonzalo Abad Grijalva Educational Unit in Chone. The methodology started through a descriptive study with a mixed approach since qualitative and quantitative data were linked, obtained in the research process, through the application of techniques such as the survey and an interview. The population was represented by 112 high school students in their entirety and 8 tutor teachers from the Dr. Gonzalo Abad Grijalva Educational Unit. The results indicated that 62.5% of students consider that teaching methodology is one of the reasons why they become demotivated when they arrive at school.

The implementation of an active learning strategy supported by simulation for learning is considered a fundamental task within the educational task. In this sense, this research has the purpose of determining the impact of virtual simulators on the teaching-learning process. For this purpose, a quantitative approach was given, using a quasi-experimental methodological design, where with a first group (Control) a demonstration class was carried out without the help of virtual simulators. With a second group (Experimental), a demonstration class was held using this type of tools. The results showed that, at the level of the participating high school students, the use of virtual simulators motivates them and facilitates learning. On the contrary, the development of the traditional class demotivated and did not generate interest in the participating students. At the level of conclusions, the use of virtual simulators has a positive impact on learning; it is proven that virtual simulators provide practically useful content in the educational field.
