Implementación y aplicación de software educativo y material concreto en el aprendizaje de las ecuaciones de las cónicas en geometría analítica plana de los estudiantes del tercer año de bachillerato del colegio Manuel J. Calle.

Abstract

The process of teaching – learning for a long time was based on repetition and memorization, currently seeks out of this situation, causing the student to construct their own knowledge, with the help of diverse didactic resources. This research work was applied in the third year of “Manuel J. Calle High School” as a model of intervention through the implementation of concrete teaching materials and the educational software Geogebra, presenting itself as an alternative solution to the problem that causes the lack of visualization of the figures, for the resolution of the problems of the conics. For the purposes of this research , the idea of constructivist learning was used , which with the help of teaching materials, the student can build their own concept of the treated cone , while the software Geogebra by applying the process to resolve the Van Hiele proposed problems of conics. The methodology is supported on an exploratory and descriptive research, using the technique of observation .The implementation of these two elements, with the aid of an instruction manual has improved the teaching - learning process, the area of mathematics, and the institution.
