Influencia de la aplicación Escape Rooms en el logro de competencias matemáticas

Abstract

Abstract: This thesis addresses the impact of the implementation of Escape Rooms in the development of mathematical skills. Through an exhaustive review bibliography, the theoretical bases of Escape Rooms as a tool were explored educational, as well as the associated learning theories. A proposal was applied using Escape Rooms for learning mathematical skills of the Basic Sublevel Higher specifically in Eighth EGB students of the Monseñor Juan Educational Unit Wiesneth, involving an experimental and control group for the comparison of the results. To achieve the objectives, a proposal was designed that involves games challenging, theme, area and perimeter. Quantitative data were collected and analyzed to evaluate the effectiveness of this methodology in improving mathematical skills. The results reveal a significant improvement in the understanding of concepts, resolution of problems and collaboration between participants. This research work contributes to provide substantial evidence on how the strategic application of Escape Rooms can enrich the teaching of mathematics, encourage the active participation of students and enhance their learning in a fun and stimulating environment.
