Material didáctico ilustrativo para fortalecer el pensamiento lógico en estudiantes de cuarto grado EGB, escuela 24 de julio, periodo 2021

Abstract

This research work clearly explains the importance of illustrative teaching materials in education, with the student as the main protagonist in the classroom. In addition, it facilitates teachers to implement new strategies that contribute directly to the development of cognitive abilities and skills that allow students to solve problems of everyday life, for this, mention is made of the central problem: What is the contribution of illustrative teaching materials to strengthen logical thinking in students of fourth grade EGB, school ‘‘24 de Julio’’, ¿period 2021? For this reason, this project aims to determine the contribution of the illustrative didactic material to strengthen logical thinking in students of fourth grade EGB, school ''24 de Julio'', period 2021. Referring to the central hypothesis that guided this research, it is detailed that this treatise is significant, because it contributes to capture the attention of the student through illustrations and allows the understanding of the contents, which originate experiential and experiential learning. On the other hand, the methodology used in this research is of a quantitative-qualitative nature, since it allowed the analysis and interpretation of the data obtained through the instruments, such as: surveys carried out with fourth grade students, interviews with fourth grade teachers and observation guides applied in the virtual classroom in order to demonstrate the teaching modality of teachers towards students. It also has an explanatory, descriptive and relational level, since relationships between variables of cause and effect were executed, which in turn allowed us to interpret the object of study. Likewise, it contains a documentary and field modality due to the indexed scientific articles that are related to the subject of study and the established object of study, in which the research phenomenon was evidenced. This methodological process was carried out with the aim of implementing illustrative didactic materials in fourth grade EGB students to strengthen mathematical logical thinking, in this way, the problems that students present when reasoning within classes the contents of the area of mathematics were evidenced, since their teacher does not apply strategies that require the use of innovative illustrative resources that awaken the student body. In this sense, it has been considered important to present as a proposal a training plan aimed at the fourth year teachers of the institution, with the objective of orienting the teacher about the elaboration and use of illustrative didactic material to strengthen the logical thinking of the student in the subject of mathematics. For this, the skills were verified with performance criteria in the area of mathematics in order to relate it to the elements of the national curriculum, obtaining in turn the improvement of learning experiences in the teachers of the mentioned grade, which will be reflected in the academic performance of the students. After analysing the implementation process and the feasibility in the technical, economic, social and legal dimensions, it was concluded that the proposal developed had positive results, due to the fact that the teachers knew the importance of handling illustrative didactic materials in the classroom that can be planned in the contents of the subject, This way the students are motivated to learn more and it favours their learning in an effective way allowing the acquisition of abilities and skills in the resolution of mathematical problems relating them to everyday life, this in turn strengthens the development of logical thinking in the students.
