Estudio comparativo entre la metodología tradicional y la virtual en la enseñanza de la matemática y su incidencia en el aprendizaje de los estudiantes del ciclo básico del colegio “12 De Marzo” de la ciudad de Portoviejo durante el año lectivo 2006-2007

Abstract

Our investigation is based on the comparative study between the traditional methodology and the virtual one in the mathematics’ teaching and how it impacts in the learning of the students. For effect of this study we take like reference students of the basic cycle since in them the bases of the mathematical knowledge should be forged and continue this way, without more inconveniences, with a good high school and later on with a successful university career. The elected population was the students of the "12 de Marzo" high school of the city of Portoviejo, taking like sample for the analysis to 180 students that represent the population of 55%, and 5 teachers that conform the area of exact sciences. The work that we carried out understands four parts: the application of both methodologies in the mathematics’ teaching, surveys to the students and the teachers, processing of data, and, analysis of the results. The application of both methodologies was made considering two parallel of oneself level that has similar academic yields, what allowed us to impart classes using a methodology for parallel. Conceived this way, we could determine the incidence of both methodologies without necessity of applying both to the same students group, since otherwise had not been possible to determine what methodology impacted favorable or unfavorably in a specific topic. elements compose it: Ministry, Directors, Trade - Unions, Educational, and even the same students. In the annexes it can be found the carried out surveys. The processing of data was made with statistical approaches and the calculations obey effective mathematical norms in the education. With the help of squares we register the obtained data in an orderly and coherent way, which we facilitate the respective processes vastly. Finally, with the data and calculations represented in statistical graphs, we are able to analyze the results in such way that it allowed us to verify our objectives, carefully to check our hypotheses and give some recommendations The surveys were designed with questions that allowed us to evidence the faults that suffer our educational system. When saying educational system, we refer to all the
