Existe evidencia de que el aprendizaje basado en proyectos es una aproximación didáctica eficaz para formar competencias, desarrollar el pensamiento crítico y creativo y mejorar la motivación de los estudiantes. Este trabajo presenta los hallazgos de un caso de estudio en una escuela de nivel medio superior localizada en Puebla (México), en la que se implementa el aprendizaje basado en proyectos en el curso de Geometría y Trigonometría. Se hicieron ajustes en los enfoques al programa de la asignatura que establece la Reforma Integral de la Educación Media Superior (RIEMS), tanto en las actividades propuestas como en la forma de evaluación, y se diseñó una situación problemática a resolver por los estudiantes, la secuencia didáctica del proyecto, algunos materiales para las actividades y una matriz de desempeño para valorar el desarrollo de las competencias establecidas. Los resultados del estudio revelaron que los estudiantes experimentaron un aprendizaje más interesante y significativo de Geometría y Trigonometría y mejoraron su motivación para aprender Matemáticas. 2017-08-09 2021-06-03T03:05:37Z 2021-06-03T03:05:37Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://redie.uabc.mx/index.php/redie/article/view/721 10.24320/redie.2017.19.3.721 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/6165 spa https://redie.uabc.mx/index.php/redie/article/view/721/1551 https://redie.uabc.mx/index.php/redie/article/view/721/1564 https://redie.uabc.mx/index.php/redie/article/view/721/1936 Derechos de autor 2019 Revista Electrónica de Investigación Educativa text/html application/pdf application/xml REDIE es una publicación del Instituto de Investigación y Desarrollo Educativo (IIDE).

Adjustments were made to the approaches in the syllabus set by the Comprehensive Reform of Higher Secondary Education (RIEMS, in Spanish), both in the activities proposed and the method of assessment.
