SOBRADO CARDENAS, Estrella; SARDUY NAPOLES, Delia and ESPINDOLA ARTOLA, Arnaldo. Didactic strategy to improve the quality of communication in mathematics. trf [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.2, pp. 272-285. ISSN 2077-2955.
Several directives of the Cuban Ministry of Education give arguments favoring the need to enhance the quality of communication. In this respect, Mathematics plays a fundamental role for its recognized contribution to the development of logical thinking of students. However, the analysis of the related research findings proves there are still difficulties in achieving such formative task at all level of education, especially at the university. The objective of this article is to evaluate a didactic strategy to improve the quality of communication in mathematics of university students. Theoretical methods and some principles related to communication in mathematics were used to construct a framework. This allowed the design of a didactic strategy, applied to three university majors (Bachelor of Education in Mathematics, Civil Engineering and Architecture). The findings prove it to pertinent in improving the quality of communication in mathematics of university students.
