El geoespacio: estrategia para el desarrollo del pensamiento espacial en los estudiantes de grado séptimo

Abstract

The learning from the content about geometry of the space has represented historically some difficulties, in 7th grade at Giovanni Pascoli school, it is limited if it refers the use of operable material in its learning and it does not promote that student possesses an active paper for the geometric knowledge, among others. In the research, it makes a didactic strategy given in the geo-space and in educational robotics, which lets to develop and innovate the spatial thinking in students of 7th grade at Giovanni Pascoli school. The proposed strategy has as main teoric reason the challenging problems, the practise´s community Wenger, the visual thought, the spatial thinking, educational robotics and the geometric contents from the space. The implementation of the different activities in the classroom allows: the use of operable material, to develop visual and representation abilities, to dominate the heuristic resources for solving problems, a control of previous knowledge in the students, the vigorous construction of geometric content in the space in order to foster the thought’s development spatial in the moment to give solution to the geometric problems of the space.
