Final assignment

In order to achieve some problems I met in education when I was in training at  UNIVERSIDAD DE LAS AMÉRICAS, the first tool I used was the visualization. Many students in my  class did not like the mathematics, in simple exercises they were blocked and I  tried to identify their problems.

As I was a probationer, I put the good communication with my students, so I  have used the technic of using the questions in order to know their really  problems.

I started the process by being simple and I tried to understand the students in  their difficulties in sharing and in interview. I often started to take notes their  problems and I concluded to discover that their great problem is their  mathematics teacher. As their mathematics teacher is bad, wrong and violent,  when he dispenses his mathematics course the students were disinterested. In  short words, when it’s time for mathematics class, they (students) were very  angry.

After four weeks, I tried to create another atmosphere by:

-using active and involvement methodology,

-proceeding by easy exercises and tests which are not difficult to do.

After the first period, eighty percent of the students performed in the  mathematics. So, in the second period, I created four groups of students in  order to plan how to help those students who were not good in the  mathematics. The strategy used was to take them in those four groups (the

group discussion) in order to be helped by others students who are good in the  mathematics.

To conclude, after my training, I found that sometimes to be familiar with the  students in the class can be a factor to be better in many courses.
