Enseñanza de las matemáticas de primaria from Coursera

En este tercer curso de acceso gratuito* del programa especializado Educación Matemática para profesores de primaria, conocerás los conceptos y técnicas para planificar e implementar tus clases.

El curso tiene una duración aproximada de seis semanas, con una dedicación promedio de 4 horas semanales. Todas las evaluaciones tienen retroalimentación y podrás descargar la mayoría de los recursos del curso.

Este curso se basa en la información y los conocimientos que desarrollamos en los dos cursos anteriores de nuestro programa: Contenido de las matemáticas de primaria y Aprendizaje de las matemáticas de primaria. Te recomendamos tomar esos dos cursos antes de tomar este. Estos cursos también están disponibles en Coursera.

Este curso incluye videos de presentación y explicación de los temas, actividades de aprendizaje y evaluación, revisión por pares, mapas conceptuales, y bibliografía adicional. La evaluación está diseñada para que recibas realimentación que queda registrada en la plataforma, de manera que puedas continuar con tu progreso al conectarte nuevamente. Puedes descargar la mayoría de los contenidos para que los uses sin conexión a Internet.

La Universidad de los Andes desarrolló el programa especializado Educación Matemática para profesores de primaria gracias al apoyo de United Way Colombia, el Fondo Puentes de Caña, la Fundación SM y la Fundación Compartir, con la colaboración de la Fundación de la Universidad de los Andes en Nueva York, Estados Unidos.

* Al inscribirte al curso, puedes elegir la opción que más te interese: sin certificación, en cuyo caso tendrás acceso a todo el contenido y evaluaciones del curso de forma gratuita; o con certificación, en cuyo caso deberás aprobar un cuestionario de evaluación por módulo y cumplir con los demás requisitos de la plataforma: hacer la verificación de identidad al presentar las evaluaciones obligatorias, lograr el porcentaje mínimo para pasar el curso y pagar directamente a Coursera el precio de la certificación anunciado en la plataforma.
