Description
Summary:Often during the teaching of mathematics, students have difficulties to understand some abstract concepts. That's why it is necessary to show the student the concepts as clearly and definitely as possible. The proposal of this project is a teaching strategy. It is the use of Geometric Representation integrated Learning Objects for the internalization of concepts. The research process involves the design, development, and evaluation of Learning Objects and how it promotes understanding of the contents of the topic “Real Geometric Vectors and their application”. At the beginning of this article are the context and the latest research concerning to this project. Then an overview of the theoretical framework that supports this work is shown. Finally, the paper describes the methodology used in the project, results of data, expected contributions and conclusions.
