Guía didáctica para la enseñanza de conceptos de derivadas

Abstract

This degree work presents the development of a didactic guide for the teaching of concepts of derivatives directed towards teachers of third year of high school. Some research shows that teachers are lacking in the application of constructivist strategies such as: didactic and technological resources for the development of classes on concepts of derivatives. It is essential to establish which resources can help teachers to improve their teaching process in the classroom, so that students can obtain significant knowledge. For this purpose, interviews were conducted with certain teachers of Mathematics in the third year of high school at the La Inmaculada Educational Unit, where they suggest that it would be appropriate to implement activities with technological resources, practical exercises applied to real life that stimulate the student's learning process and that at the same time are easy to use for the teacher. Therefore, a didactic guide is elaborated that contains as pedagogical and constructivist support the use of concrete material and easily accessible technological resources such as: videos, virtual games, demonstrations and simulations in geogebra, which encourage students to identify, demonstrate, understand and interpret when and how to apply the derivatives in events that occur in everyday life.
