Abstract

BRAVO GUERRERO, Fabián Eugenio; OYERVIDE JUMBO, Verónica Nathaly  and  CHAVEZ MALDONADO, Estefanía Maribel. Technological resources for teaching descriptive geometry. RCUISRAEL [online]. 2022, vol.9, n.2, pp.95-110.  Epub Aug 10, 2022. ISSN 2631-2786.  https://doi.org/10.35290/rcui.v9n2.2022.540.

The use of technological resources is important in descriptive geometry classes, since it is difficult to explain three-dimensional figures on a blackboard that is a plane. In this sense, the objective of this study was to develop descriptive geometry classes with the use of a software simulator and to evaluate the results of the incorporation of this resource. For this purpose, two classes were designed using the GeoEnZo simulator software and plastic education as support for the class. Then, a survey was made to 39 students of a university degree in mathematics education about the use of the simulator software for descriptive geometry classes. The students indicated that their college teachers used the blackboard and the geometric game to develop the classes, and they worked on sheets of paper. Meanwhile, in the classes where the simulator software was used, the teacher's explanation was much better in relation to understanding the topics and learning descriptive geometry. In addition, they indicated that the software simulator allowed them to solve and draw more quickly, and that it improved the presentation of their drawings. As part of the conclusions, it is determined that the use of technological resources in the classroom helps to improve the students' spatial understanding, and therefore, to achieve quality learning.
