Learning of transfers in the plan based on the Van Hiele model, mediated by geogebra Aprendizaje de traslaciones en el plano fundamentado en el modelo de Van Hiele, mediado por Geogebra

Abstract

The article analyzes the learning process of the translations in the plane using the Van Hiele model and integrating the software geogebra, in the students of seventh degree in the Rural Education Center Sucre of the municipality of Mutiscua, Colombia. These students have shown low results in the Pruebas Saber and among the suggestions given by the Ministry in the synthetic quality index ISCE is: to strengthen the geometric component and in particular the transformations in the plane. The research was qualitative and in particular research action. A pretest was applied in order to determine the level of student learning; Then, three classroom projects were designed, divided into 10 work sessions, according to the phases of the Van Hiele model and using Geogebra as a tool for ICT (information and communication technologies). In the process the learning and some of its characteristics were analyzed. The Van Hiele model facilitated the learning of translations in the plane and allowed a permanent evaluation of the learning process. Including TIC tools allowed students to take the step through the integration phase in a practical and enjoyable way. Context-based activities should be designed and teamwork encouraged.
