Análisis comparativo entre memoria semántica y aprendizaje significativo en los ciclos III, IV y V del colegio rafael maría carrasquilla

Abstract

The internship focuses on addressing the perception of "laziness" towards learning chemistry in cycles III, IV and V of the Educational Institution Colegio Rafael Carrasquilla in Bogota. The aim is to analyse and compare semantic memory and meaningful learning strategies to improve the teaching of chemistry and increase student interest. The importance of teaching chemistry lies in its application to concrete problems and the need to overcome the negative perception of the subject. Semantic memory and meaningful learning are key concepts in the internship, as it will analyse how they influence the acquisition of chemical concepts. The methodology involves classroom observations, interviews and questionnaires, and aspects such as concept retention and the construction of semantic networks will be assessed. The results indicate that effective pedagogical strategies that promote meaningful learning and the formation of strong semantic networks are applied. Students attribute real meaning to chemical concepts and create connections to their everyday life. Comparison of concepts learned in different cycles reveals progress in the construction of semantic memory and the achievement of meaningful learning in chemistry, which contributes to overcoming the perception of "laziness" towards the subject.
