GeoGebra en el aprendizaje de las funciones lineales

Abstract

Abstract: The study of linear functions represents one of the challenges faced by high school students due to the lack of motivation and the absence of didactic resources such as dynamic software, interactive games, among others, has led teachers to resort to and promote technological tools to facilitate the learning of mathematics. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to analyze the impact of the use of GeoGebra in the learning of linear functions. The methodological approach used was a mixed qualitative-quantitative, pre-experimental design. The population consisted of all first year of high school, and a sample of 50 students was selected. An objective test (Pretest - Posttest) was used for data collection. The results obtained through the T - Student statistical analysis indicated that the use of GeoGebra has a positive impact on the learning of linear functions. In summary, GeoGebra is an effective alternative tool to address difficulties in learning mathematics, particularly linear functions that significantly improves the knowledge of high school students.
