Use of the Educoplay tool in the learning of mathematics for fourth year students of elementary basic

Abstract

Introduction: The purpose of this thesis is to propose a teaching strategy to help promote the learning of mathematics in fourth-year students of basic education at the "Luis A. Martinez" educational unit using Educaplay technology. Interactive and personalized activities were implemented using the Educaplay platform, in order to evaluate its effectiveness in learning calculation operations in mathematics. The progress of the students was monitored and quantitative and qualitative data were collected. Materials and methods: The main methods used at the theoretical level were synthesis analysis, inductive deductive and structural systemic; at the empirical level, observation, interview, survey and specialist criteria; at the mathematical statistics level, descriptive statistics were used, which contributed to developing the research, giving an assessment of the proposal and the results achieved with its implementation. Results: The results obtained mean the achievement of better levels of learning and motivation in the subject of mathematics. The teaching strategy is a very valuable tool in the hands of the agents of the teaching process that favors the learning of the students in the subject of Mathematics. Discussion: The way in which the teaching learning process of Mathematics is developed in basic elementary education is limited for the performance of the student in the interaction with the computer and its use in independent activity. Conclusions: The teaching strategy serves as a guiding guide for the action of the group of teachers of this subject for the conduction of the teaching learning process of Mathematics with the use of the Educaplay tool.
