Estrategias pertinentes para mejorar los resultados de las pruebas saber en el área de matemáticas de los estudiantes de grado once del Colegio Santa Bárbara

Abstract

The development of mathematical competencies in secondary education is essential for the comprehensive formation of students, as it enhances logical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and skills that are transferable to other disciplines and social contexts. In Colombia, the Saber 11 tests serve as tools for assessing these competencies at the conclusion of the school cycle. At Colegio Santa Bárbara, results from previous years reveal persistent weaknesses in mathematics, particularly in information interpretation, quantitative reasoning, and the contextual application of concepts. These findings underscore the need to implement appropriate and contextualized pedagogical strategies to improve student performance. This document proposes a set of didactic, methodological, and evaluative strategies aimed at strengthening mathematics learning in eleventh grade. It positions the student as the central agent in the learning process and the teacher as a facilitator of that process. Beyond improving outcomes on the Saber 11 tests, the objective is to promote meaningful learning that contributes to the formation of critical and socially engaged citizens.
