Dificultades, conflictos y obstáculos en las rácticas educativas universitarias de iniciación al cálculo diferencial —PEUC— en estudiantes de ingeniería

Abstract

This research focuses on identifying, describing, characterizing and explaining the difficulties, conflicts and obstacles that can be inferred from the study of some university educational practices of the initial work in the differential calculus in first semester students of Engineering, how they emerge, and what possible causal relationships could be established for its explanation, initially configuring a comprehension framework for the conceptualization of some theoretical constructs related to the notion of obstacle. The theories of Brousseau, Sierpinska, Artigue, Godino, Radford and D'Amore, as well as the studies of Sfard on reification, and of Tall on conceptual image ("concept image") and procept ("procept") were used. . The research is qualitative, descriptive-interpretative; The type of study is exploratory, with the case study method, in which non-participant observation and structured task-based interviewing were used.
