ABSTRACT

This paper addresses the use of Ethnomathematics in the teaching of Mathematics that takes place in the fifth year of Basic General Education and welcomes schoolchildren aged 8-9, according to Ecuadorian educational processes, and explores the logical mathematical development, by teaching arithmetic with the Nepohualtzintzin. The aim is to analyze the quality of learning through the performance of mathematical logical thinking, through the didactic use of the Nepohualtzintzin as an ancestral calculation instrument in students at these ages. Dimensions are based on the development of mathematical logical thinking from pedagogy and psychology. The Nepohualtzintzinwas used by renowned cultures in world history such as the Mayans and Aztecs. Its didactic qualities determine the ease with which students learn the place value of the basic element figures for the resolution of arithmetic operations. Furthermore, the cultural connotation of Ethnomathematics in the didactics of mathematics is also established. An exploratory, documentary, descriptive and longitudinal study is described. Pretest and posttest were applied, which were statistically processed with the SPSS package. The analysis carried out allows indorsing the feasibility of the proposal for the development of mathematical logical thinking through the determined dimensions. In end of this study, significant positive results were identified among the experimental group with respect to the control group, all of which ratifies the importance of the study.
