Open Educational Resources (OER) and learning mathematics

Abstract

The present work degree called: Open Educational Resources (OER) and learning, has
as general objective to determine the influence of OER in the mathematics learning in fifth
grade students. The importance of strengthening learning in the fifth grade students of Basic
General Education, part of the constant application of the OER that motivate and contribute to
improve these processes.
This study was carried out under a mixed qualitative-quantitative approach of
descriptive, experimental and statistical type with the reality of the research problem. We
worked with the inductive-deductive, analytical-synthetic study method. The techniques:
observation and the questionnaire; the instruments: observation sheet, cognitive pretest-test,
cognitive posttest-test; and, the procedures: diagnosis, theoretical foundation and the design of
the OER in relation to the subject of mathematics, taking as a reference the results that were
diagnosed in the cognitive pre-test.
Taking into account that we worked with the entire population, which is made up of:
48 students and two teachers, showing that the OER used positively influence student learning
since they acquire greater cognitive ability when they have an active participation, In addition,
the skills and interest in accessing technological resources were developed, which allows them
to complement their educational process.
