Geo-Gebra, su aplicación en las cónicas como recurso didáctico, y su incidencia en el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes de nivelación de la Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE - Extensión Latacunga

Abstract

It was investigated in that way affects the application of Geo-Gebra software into the conic, as a didactic resource of analytical geometry in the academic performance of nivelation students in the Armed Forces University ESPE- extension Latacunga. The methodology used was: Chosen two study groups; one of experimentation which would explain the teaching resources and another control, which would apply to turn the master class; in both groups was established a test diagnosed at the end of the first month to determine the base line to the abstraction of knowledge without the Geo-Gebra as a facilitator; were subsequently periodic evaluations to the academic performance of students making full use of the didactic of the Geo-Gebra in the experimental group and in the control of the magistral traditional methodology; concluding with a final evaluation for knowing the efficiency of academic performance, they were collected and tabulated data using statistical inferential which of chose test T Student for being normal numeric distributions; whereas the growth equation, applied to the averages obtained in the three methodological moments: Diagnostics, implementation of the proposal and final diagnosis. Subsequently was determined the correlation: methodology – performance to know if both parameters corresponded to a relation: cause - effect in the experimental group. The results showed that through the application of Geo - Gebra, the last group overcome a 67% to the control group; the result was obtained from the equation of growth while the index: method – performance was presented a strong correlation equal to 0.93 that concluded that the experimental group benefit widely from the application of the informatics resource Geo-Gebra in the process of learning of the conics.
