Enseñanza de matemáticas para ingeniería en educación superior
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Este estudio analiza la efectividad de diferentes metodologías de enseñanza de las matemáticas en la formación de ingenieros, enfocándose en el rendimiento académico y la motivación de los estudiantes. Se compararon tres enfoques: enseñanza tradicional, aprendizaje basado en problemas (ABP) y el uso de tecnología en el aula. A través de una metodología mixta, se recopilaron datos cuantitativos mediante exámenes y encuestas estructuradas, y cualitativos mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas y observaciones participativas. Los resultados cuantitativos mostraron que el grupo ABP experimentó una mejora del 23% en el rendimiento académico, el mayor aumento entre los grupos, lo que sugiere que el enfoque basado en problemas favorece la comprensión y aplicación de las matemáticas en contextos reales de ingeniería. Los estudiantes del grupo ABP también reportaron mayores niveles de motivación y satisfacción en comparación con los de la enseñanza tradicional, que se caracterizó por una mayor desconexión entre la teoría matemática y su aplicabilidad. Los resultados cualitativos corroboraron estos hallazgos, destacando que la enseñanza tradicional resultó en un bajo nivel de participación y engagement, mientras que el ABP promovió un aprendizaje más activo y colaborativo.
