Las nuevas clases de geometría

Abstract

Traditionally, geometry classes have been difficult, but when these classes are developed mechanically and memoristically, they become even more complex. Teachers who develop theoretical, abstract and difficult to understand topics, which are not related to any practical application and are of little interest, do not contribute to solving this problem. There are new currents of thought that are changing the relationship between teachers and students in the classroom, the teacher designs and applies activities so that the student develops his learning and goes from being a passive receiver to have an active role in the classroom. The action research methodology was used for the theoretical analysis of traditional classes and new geometry class proposals. This article aims to describe an experience with students of the teacher training career in Mathematics and Physics, where creative classes of triangles are developed, with novel themes that describe part of Ecuadorian history, technological resources are used that facilitate understanding and the context problems that are analyzed give practical meaning to geometry and encourage research.
