El software Geogebra como recurso didáctico para el aprendizaje de vectores y sus operaciones: una propuesta didáctica

Abstract

The present work has as objective to offer a didactic alternative for the learning of the unit of Vectors for the students of first of General Unified Baccalaureate of the Unidad Educativa Chordeleg. It is raised a proposal of learning composed of 6 classes using as resource the software Geogebra, in order that the students reach a significant learning. For the analysis of the information a mixed methodology with descriptive reach was used, as instruments of information collection a diagnostic test applied to the students of first of baccalaureate was used and an interview that was applied to two teachers of the area of mathematics of the same course. As conclusions it was possible to evidence the lack of knowledge about the subject of vectors in the students, and the predisposition of the teachers to use technological tools in their classrooms, which shows the great help that can contribute to incorporate the Geogebra software to the learning process, so that better academic results can be obtained, waking up the motivation and the interest.
