Elaboración de una guía didáctica para el aprendizaje y resolución de problemas de programación lineal por el método gráfico y analítico dirigido a los estudiantes de primero de bachillerato

Abstract

It was investigated whether the use of a linear programming tutorial significantly improves the level of learning and problem solving by the analytical and graphic method aimed at students from first baccalaureate at Combatientes deTapi High School. The methodology used was deductive hypothetical method because the investigation started from a hypothesis to raise the issue, the qualitative – quantitative method it was develop through observation using the checklist instrument and questionnaires for the quantitative method.

Quasi – experimental design was used in this investigation, two work groups were divided in group A 60 students and 60 students group B where group A was select as the control group B in which the tutorial was applied and in another group the lecture was applied, in both a diagnostic test and a final test for the academic performance of students was established. Data obtained was collected and tabulated on which difference of proportions test was applied thus 1.64 is the theoretical values and theoretical applied tabulated was obtained 2.878>1.64, Ho is rejected, and Ha is accepted thus the research hypothesis is accepted. It is concluded that the experimental group benefited greatly from the tutorial with 72.55% in the learning process of Linear Programming. It is recommended to do training courses on linear programming, so that teachers have a choice of solution for the advancement in education, and potentiate and update their knowledge on the subject.
