Aprendizaje cooperativo en el desarrollo del pensamiento lógico matemático en aspirantes a rendir la prueba de ingreso a la universidad en el Instituto Prepa2

Abstract

Abstract: This research analyzes how cooperative learning contributes to the academic performance, specifically when developing logical mathematical order exercises in the topics of rule of three, percentages, algebraic language and systems of equations in applicants to take the university entrance test, enrolled in the course Prepa/2 pre-university but distributed at different times. The sample is made up of 54 students, divided equally between the control and experimental group. Using the technique From the survey through questionnaires, a low level of attention to details was diagnosed and development of logical mathematical thinking lower than required, however, after After the implementation of the proposed workshop, the experimental group obtained better results than the control group, going from an average of 10.89 to 15.30 points out of 20. In summary, The implementation of active methodologies, such as cooperative learning, contributed in the acquisition of knowledge in a meaningful way and, the students learned about the importance of verbal behaviors and roles played within group work.
