Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants Part 1

Abstract

The main purpose of this project is to develop mathematical competences through interactive educational environments of multi-device access in the ninth grade students of the Institution Educativa Villa Estadio. The Moodle platform is used in interactive activities designed by the teacher and its subsequent application to students. This research works under a quantitative approach, descriptive type and quasi-experimental design. It was used a sample of 31 students of 9th grade, they were selected intentionally non-probabilistic way. A diagnosis is initially applied through a test with questions released by the ICFES, then teaching strategies are applied under an interactive educational environment with multi-device access in math’s subject; and, finally, at the end of the period and once applied the ICT-mediated teaching strategies, a posttest is applied to the students. The results obtained showed that the use of interactive educational environments with multiple devices access contributes to the development of mathematical skills in students that allows them to improve their performance in solving contextualized problems.
