Uso de Python para el desarrollo de habilidades en el cálculo de la distancia entre dos puntos en estudiantes de formación dual

Abstract

Abstract: The present research used Python for the acquisition of skills in calculating distances between two points in dual training students at ESPE. The research is quantitative, with a descriptive correlational scope and a quasi-experimental design, taking a sample of 42 students. A pretest was administered to determine prior knowledge related to analytical geometry to establish a baseline and design a didactic sequence using Python for the experimental group and a normal sequence for the control group. Subsequently, a postest was conducted, which, through the Mann-Whitney U test, revealed a significant difference in the averages of both groups. Finally, a survey was administered to the experimental group, showing that they were satisfied with the use of Python in their classes, concluding that the use of Python positively impacts the acquisition of skills in calculating distances between two points.
