Flipped classroom para mejorar la comprensión de funciones lineales en estudiantes de decimo grado de EGB de la Unidad Educativa Particular Santa Mariana de Jesús, Loja

Abstract

Abstract: The objective of this research was to analyze the influence of the Flipped Classroom pedagogical model on the study of linear functions among tenth-grade students in general basic education at the Unidad Educativa Particular Santa Mariana de Jesús, Loja. To this end, a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design were used, using a pre-test, a post-test, and a satisfactory survey, which allowed to compare the performance of the experimental group contrary to the control group. In the results, it was shown a significant improvement in the active participation and understanding of the students applying this methodology, as opposed to the traditional approach. In addition, a positive attitude toward the implementation of digital tools was observed. This pedagogical proposal, apart from strengthening academic performance in mathematics, also promotes teaching that is more meaningful and collaborative, and also it adapts to current challenges in education. The Flipped Classroom model outcomes as an innovative alternative that transforms teaching practice and allows us to meet the needs of the XXI century.
