Abstract

This investigation had as purpose to evaluate the attitudes of the students of Engineering of both sexes of the subject Differential Equations of the University Francisco of Paula Santander, toward the incorporation of the Calculating Voyage 200. It was analyzed the actitudes of the students using this new technology in the class of Mathematics as an instrument facilitator toward the understanding and the learning of the applications of the Differential Equations of First Order where they could have a better graphic perspective of these creating the interaction of the students with the calculating Voyage 200 and analyzing the paper that this it can adopt in the process of Teaching-learning. The picked up data were analyzed using descriptive statistic. The discoveries of the study were: When introducing the Calculating Voyage 200 in the learning he/she ends producing a new attitude toward the mathematics, contributing to design new strategies to solve the applications of the Differential Equations of First Order. The calculating Voyage 200 are an instrument of mediation of the mathematics, where it supports the transmission of knowledge on the part of the professor and for other the acquisition of knowledge and the stimulation of the creativity of the students, helping this way to the interaction professor-student. The introduction of the new technologies in the teaching of the mathematics, he/she can help to a change in the curriculum, where it develops a transformation on the part of the teacher in the teaching and evaluation.
