Mathgames y su incidencia en la enseñanza-aprendizaje de operaciones aritméticas, en el tercer grado, Escuela Alfredo Pérez, Santa Rosa 2022-2023

Abstract

This titling project clearly and pertinently integrates the impact generated by the Mathgames platform in the teaching and learning process of basic arithmetic operations, such as addition and subtraction, among third grade students, highlighting the role educational technology in this century, and the implications of this tool in the development of metacognitive skills necessary to access knowledge. In this sense, the research arises with the central question "What is the incidence of Mathgames in the teaching-learning of arithmetic operations, in the third grade, Escuela Alfredo Pérez, Santa Rosa 2022-2023?", proposing as the main objective to determine the incidence of this platform in the teaching-learning of arithmetic operations, within the population, level and institution defined for this work. In addition, it was established as a central hypothesis that the use of Mathgames positively affects the teaching-learning of arithmetic operations, in the third grade, because it turns the student into an active and productive being of his learning, which allows him to generate significant learning through recreational spaces such as didactic games. For its part, the methodology used in this research shares the qualitative and quantitative approaches, since data collection was undertaken through procedures such as interviews, surveys and classroom observation, which provided the necessary information to analyze, with the help of the method statistical and interpretive, the educational context based on the aspects described above. The interview was addressed to the third-grade teachers, who shared their teaching experiences on the topic raised, while a survey was applied to the students, whose questions were directed around the particular hypotheses and study variables proposed in this document. The results obtained showed the lack of integration of technological educational tools that allow a better action of teachers, with diversified methodologies and teaching based on the creation of dynamic environments, where subjects such as mathematics become interesting and attractive fields of knowledge for students. the students. This situation made it possible to evaluate the relevance of the Mathgames platform as a viable option to improve the educational process among third grade teachers and their students, thus constituting the proposal to design a didactic guide that contemplates the diversity of dynamic activities related to the use of Mathgames as the main support tool, encouraging the student in learning the arithmetic operations of addition and subtraction. After the implementation and evaluation of this proposal, it was concluded that the platform in question represents significant support for the teacher's methodology, who can take advantage of its benefits in the creation of dynamic activities, either as pedagogical reinforcement, or practical learning complement. , since it encourages the student and inserts him in a totally fun environment, where he plays and learns simultaneously. Finally, the main recommendation that arises from this project is the combination of Mathgames with other virtual educational support tools, maximizing the impact on the acquisition of knowledge and the development of essential cognitive skills for life.
