Abstract

This thesis presents the results of the research carried out at Institución Educativa Distrital Colegio Alfredo Iriarte, located in Rafael Uribe Uribe, south of Bogotá, D.C. The objective of this research was to know the effects and experiences of the use of the mobile application “Graphic Calculator” of GeoGebra in the learning of the topic of the linear function in students of eleventh grade. The research design is based on the methodology of four Solomon groups to determine the experiences and influence of an intervention mediated by GeoGebra's mobile application "Graphic Calculator" and considering the effects of a pretest. The implementation of the proposal designed in the research was carried out during the second academic period of 2019, with two experimental groups of sixty-six students participating in one intervention and two control groups with seventy students who conventionally addressed the topic. The results obtained by the experimental groups were compared with those obtained by the two control groups, which conventionally dealt with the same topic. An ANOVA test was carried out and it was verified that the intervention had a statistically significant role in the posttest results. As part of the results obtained it can be stated that there were significant differences between the results achieved by the experimental groups, as opposed to the results of the control group and that the pretest test had no direct influence on these results. In addition, a better attitude towards participation and activities was evidenced by using the mobile application "Graphic Calculator" of GeoGebra.
