Aprendizaje de las funciones polinómicas aplicando la metodología de aula invertida utilizando Scientific Workplace para estudiantes del Décimo año de la Unidad Educativa “Baños”, periodo 2022 – 2023.

Abstract

This research aimed to improve the learning of polynomial functions by applying the flipped classroom methodology using Scientific Workplace for students of the Tenth Year of the "Baños" Educational Unit, period 2022 – 2023, for which a performance diagnosis was carried out. Academic and didactic are currently used in teaching polynomial functions; subsequently, flipped classroom methodology was designed and described for teaching polynomial functions using the Scientific Workplace software. Finally, the learning was evaluated using teaching methods and techniques typical of the proposed methodology. This work was based on a mixed research design, integrating qualitative and quantitative methodology to obtain information with a clear and precise vision of educational phenomena, which allowed the data to be interpreted, described, and analyzed comprehensively. Observation sheets, a structured base test of 10 open and closed questions, and a questionnaire were used as research instruments, making it possible to determine the students' attitudes, levels of satisfaction, and points of view using flipped classroom methodology. After using descriptive statistics, which allowed us to find the dispersion, measures of central position, distribution tests, and homogeneity of variances to deduce the hypothesis, it was deduced that the use of mathematical software does affect the student's academic performance. , demonstrating more significant learning. Based on the hypothesis test for two different samples on the averages obtained in the control and experimental group, it can be concluded that using the Scientific Workplace software constitutes a fundamental tool for the student, facilitating the graphic development and interpretation of polynomials functions, achieving different skills, theoretical mastery of polynomial functions.
