Estrategias metodológicas para el desarrollo de habilidades lógico matemáticas en los estudiantes de educación general básica

Abstract

The present essay aims to determine which are the appropriate methodological strategies to develop logical mathematical skills in Basic Education students. The inductive method was used, through the bibliographic review, analysis and comparison of scientific articles and educational policy documents of the Ministry of Education, to reach a general conclusion. Basic Education is responsible for developing these skills in each curricular unit, relating to the activities of daily living as elementary experiences with the content, supported by the game and guide. The logical mathematical skills allow the analysis and resolution of problems, as well as the management of information to be able to handle everyday situations. The methodological strategies are in charge of selecting and identifying principles, criteria and procedures to develop these skills. The methodological strategies that meet these requirements are those that relate to society, interpret and solve problems, overcome conflicts, thus achieving a development of logical mathematical skills. The methodological strategies that are used to develop problems of daily life are: Problem-Based Learning (PBL), Inquiry, Metacognition, Problem solving and approach, collaborative work, motivation and Heuristics. In conclusion, the analyzed articles coincide that the development of mathematical logic skills is through the resolution of problems in their environment, from the first school years, taking into account Piaget's stages to select the skills to be achieved. Problem solving can be used by any of the aforementioned strategies, depending on the group, context, need. Keywords: Methodological strategies, mathematical logical skills,
