Preconcepciones de pendiente en estudiantes de Educación Secundaria

Autores/as

Resumen

En este artículo se reportan los resultados de una investigación cuyo objetivo fue identificar las preconcepciones de pendiente en estudiantes de Educación Secundaria. Se empleó una entrevista basada en tareas para la recolección de datos de 30 estudiantes de 10.º grado y el método de análisis temático para su respectivo análisis. Los resultados muestran que las preconcepciones de pendiente que manifiestan los estudiantes son la pendiente como la longitud de un segmento de recta, un objeto, una propiedad física, el valor del ángulo, la intersección de la recta con los ejes asociada a una expresión algebraica y el cociente de los valores de las intersecciones en el eje x e y. Aunque algunos estudiantes declararon una primera experiencia con el concepto, este conocimiento tuvo una mínima influencia en sus procedimientos y justificaciones.
