El contexto como herramienta de evaluación didáctica en el aprendizaje del Álgebra Lineal

Abstract

Abstract:To achieve a quality education at a higher level in the area of mathematics and its related branches, it is necessary to implement new didactic strategies of teaching-learning and evaluation. A didactic strategy in learning is evaluation and at the same time an instrument that evaluates this process. The case method is an active student-centered methodology. Therefore, it has been considered as a tool for evaluating the thematic of addition and product of matrices in the study of Linear Algebra in the careers of Computer Science and Business Administration of the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja from Ecuador. The data obtained from the evaluation (Pretest and Posttest) of the experimental group as a control were analyzed by mean difference (Student t), where it is evidenced that there is no significant difference between the averages of the tests of the control group and the experimental group individually, but rather in groups. Likewise, the results of the satisfaction survey indicate that 54% of the students felt motivated by the methodology applied to understand the contents.
