Implementación de un software educativo para reforzar el aprendizaje de geometría y medida en estudiantes de 1ro de bachillerato

Abstract

The main objective of this curriculum integration work was the implementation of an educational software that supports the learning process of geometry and measurement in first year high school students. We utilized the agile development methodology Scrum, seeking flexibility, adaptability, and speed during the project. Functional and non-functional requirements were defined through meetings with stakeholders. We utilized the Jamstack architecture, taking advantage of its speed, security, and low cost. Among the tools utilized for development were the headless content management system Strapi, NextJS static site generator, AWS S3 for file storage, SendGrid for email management and Vercel for deployment. To ensure the fulfillment of the requirements, functional tests based on user stories and acceptance tests were performed. Finally, we evaluated the Usability characteristic following the ISO/IEC 25010 Standard by applying a 15-question survey adapted from the USE and PSSUQ questionnaires, evaluating the characteristics of pedagogical ease, ease of understanding and ease of use. We tabulated and analyzed the data obtained from the survey, resulting in a score of 4.51 for pedagogical ease, 4.26 for ease of understanding and 4.28 for ease of use, all out of 5. We conclude that the educational software meets the established requirements, is attractive and facilitates the learning of geometry and measurement in students. It is recommended to use responsive design techniques so that the educational software can be adapted to different devices.
