Abstract
Following the pandemic, Chilean universities have received a generation of students from a virtual academic world who demand the articulation of their lesson through a combination of active methodologies and the use of technology, offering teachers the opportunity to apply different teaching strategies. The objective of this study is to analyze the effects of the use of mobile devices together with the Geogebra software on the learning of 79 firstyear Engineering students at the Universidad Católica del Norte. This approach was implemented as an alternative work strategy to support teachers and students. The study is quantitative and descriptive-correlational. Data were gathered by means of a questionnaire designed ad hoc and validated through a structural equation model. The questionnaire was applied during two consecutive periods and descriptive and factorial analyses were performed. The main results show a high motivation with the use of these technological resources in the classroom and an increase in the academic performance of the students. This shows the usefulness and versatility attached to the interactive way of teaching tested in this study which can be applied across different levels and mathematics courses. En el ámbito de la educación superior, posterior a la pandemia, las universidades chilenas recibieron una generación de estudiantes provenientes de un mundo académico virtual que demandan la articulación entre metodologías activas y el uso de la tecnología en el desarrollo de las clases, ofreciendo la oportunidad al profesorado de aplicar distintas estrategias de enseñanza. El objetivo de la presente investigación es analizar los efectos del uso de dispositivos móviles junto con el software Geogebra en el aprendizaje de estudiantes universitarios validado mediante un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales, en cursos de primer año de Ingeniería, implementado como una estrategia de trabajo alternativa de apoyo para docentes y estudiantes. El enfoque metodológico del estudio es cuantitativo de corte descriptivo correlacional, en el cual participaron 79 estudiantes de Ingeniería de la Universidad Católica del norte obteniendo información mediante el análisis de un cuestionario creado ad-hoc aplicado por dos períodos consecutivos, análisis descriptivos, análisis factorial y un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales. Los principales resultados evidencian una alta motivación con el uso de estos recursos tecnológicos en el aula y un aumento del rendimiento académico del estudiantado mostrando la utilidad y la versatilidad de una forma interactiva de enseñar aplicable a distintos niveles y en diversos cursos de matemáticas.
