El rol de los usos en la resignificación del área de polígonos en estudiantes de grado séptimo de las I.E. Miguel A. Caicedo Mena y Normal Superior Manuel Cañizales de Quibdó-Chocó

Abstract

This study was based on polygons. Given the utilitarian way it was taught at school and due to that at present, both teachers and students struggle a bit when learning or teaching polygons and this shows itself clearly in the concept management, the contextualization, the wide range of mathematics algorithms and problem solving. Thus, this research aims to bring nearer the different roll when using the area of polygons supported through a Social epistemology framework: theory of systemic characteristics that approaches the object of study from a holistic vision, the way how the knowledge emerges, the cognitive process of comprehension of the basic knowledge and the context in which the person acts.
