Use of an App to Support the Learning of Fractional Operations in Elementary School Students During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Abstract
During the covid-19 pandemic, educational institutions at all levels were closed to slow the rate of infection and online classes were activated throughout Mexico. This caused a radical change in the teaching-learning process that affected millions of students. In this context, a mobile application was designed in Android Studio as an alternative to study fractional operations for fifth grade elementary students in the municipality of Tierra Blanca, Veracruz. This study seeks to know the impact it had on the learning process of the students. This project has a quantitative approach with correlational scope. The probability sample was 353 students. To test the hypothesis, a Pearson correlation was used in the Minitab statistical program. The results showed that the students who used the computer resource positively solved more fractional exercises than the young people who did not use it.
