Estrategias didácticas para generar motivación en el proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje de la resta con números naturales en el Tercer año de EGB: Una propuesta desde el Aprendizaje basado en juegos.

Abstract

The research work focuses on the factors that influence the lack of motivation of students in the process of teaching and learning subtraction with natural numbers in the area of Third Year Mathematics. The objective of the research is to implement teaching strategies that generate motivation in the teaching and learning process of subtraction with natural numbers. The methodology used is the socio-critical paradigm, which provides a global and dialectical vision of educational reality. A qualitative approach is adopted that allows us to recognize the perspectives and experiences of the subjects, as well as action research, which combines theory and practice to respond to educational problems. The research techniques used are participant observation, semi-structured interview and focus group, which will provide detailed information about the object of study. The results obtained are given from the cycles that make up the action research spiral, which are: planning, application, observation and reflection. Furthermore, these results demonstrate that motivating teaching strategies allow students to solve rest problems in a more efficient and dynamic way. In conclusion, to design didactic activities based on Game-Based Learning, creative, dynamic and challenging resources must be considered to encourage student motivation in the rest of natural numbers, in such a way that significant learning is generated.
