Abstract

The main objective of the present work was to design a didactic unit to foster numerical thinking and the value of responsibility in third grade students in the context of I.E Arturo Velásquez Ortiz in the municipality of Santa Fe de Antioquia, under the focus Problem solving and collaborative work. Some elements of the Cultural Historical Approach of Vygotsky and his followers, Problem-Based Learning and Collaborative Work are the theoretical sources on which the didactic proposal is supported. Methodologically, a qualitative research approach is approached with a case study method and a quasi-experimental approach, according to (Cerezal Mezquita & Fiallo Rodriguez, 2002). The results in the diagnostic tests in the unit of the affective cognitive, show a general tendency of the students to have highly favorable attitudes of responsibility, although it is possible that in practice some variations occur, since the imaginary that have to be taken into account have children at this age with respect to this value. At the same time, it became clear that children find it difficult to work on their own, requiring help to carry out effective and efficient work, as passive subjects of the educational process in school. It is thought that in that sense teachers have not considered in the process of teaching learning, the potential of children and the knowledge they possess. These results were constituted in the values added to design the didactic unit.
