Una investigación del aprendizaje del cálculo aritmético

Abstract

The aim of this article is that of showing a specific approach in the Didactics of Arithmetic Calculus, and the results that have been achieved using it with about 300 students in the first year of SUP: we also want to show certain criteria which could allow us to improve our method. Such criteria are based both on the realization of the didactIc method itself and on the assumption of certain cognitive factors which have great influence on the learnin& of Arithmetic Calculus. Throughout the developing of our approach in the Didactics 5f Arithmetic Calculus we have emphasized the sections devoted to the teaching of calculus, error enalysis and calculus problem solving (according to Polya).
