Digital Communication Influences Critical, Logical, Mathematical Thinking of Panamanian Public-School Students: 2023 ; Comunicación digital influye en pensamiento crítico, lógico matemático de estudiantes de colegios públicos panameños: 2023

The American curriculum standards aim to progressively enable children to be able to see the data set as a whole, describe its shape, and use statistical characteristics, such as range and measures of central tendency to compare, considering the cycle: formulate questions, collect data, and represent them (Batanero 2002). In Panama, students have little developed critical and logical mathematical thinking that allows them to make decisions based on scientific data. The objective of this research is to establish the importance of logical mathematical reasoning that promotes the learning of statistics, from elementary school, to create a statistical culture in the citizens of tomorrow. The methodology used was the compilation of documents such as scientific articles, theses, etc. The results obtained reveal that digital tools and information and communication technology (ICTs) represent support for the achievement of the objectives set. In such a way that, by developing this skill from childhood, the country will be able to count on young people with analytical capacity in the face of the bombardment of information they receive, through mobile devices. Consequently, the results of the PISA test could improve and place our country in a better position. ; Los estándares curriculares americanos pretenden que progresivamente los niños sean capaces de ver el conjunto de datos como un todo, describir su forma y usar las características estadísticas, como el rango y las medidas de tendencia central para comparar, considerando el ciclo: formular preguntas, recoger datos y representarlos (Batanero 2002). En Panamá los estudiantes tienen poco desarrollado el pensamiento crítico y lógico matemático que les permite tomar decisiones basados en datos científicos. El objetivo de esta investigación es establecer la importancia del razonamiento lógico matemático que propicia el aprendizaje de la estadística, desde la escuela básica, para crear una cultura estadística en los ciudadanos del mañana. La metodología utilizada fue la ...
