Resumen:

La investigacin est centrada en la enseanza de la Programacin Lineal mediada por
el software GeoGebra con alumnos del quinto grado de educacin secundaria, de la
Institucin Educativa N 1136 John F. Kennedy. Este tema forma parte del Diseo
Curricular Nacional y por tanto del libro texto de quinto grado de educacin secundaria;
sin embargo, o bien no se considera en la programacin curricular anual o bien se
ensea la haciendo construcciones geomtricas usando lpiz y papel. Investigaciones
como Malaspina (2008) y Moreno (2011), detectaron que la mayora de alumnos no
tiene nociones sobre Programacin Lineal, porque no las estudiaron en el colegio, esto
se debe a que la mayora de docentes no las incluyeron en su programacin curricular
anual. Moreno (2011) y Reao (2011) propusieron usar lpiz y papel para ensear
Programacin Lineal, mientras que Paiva (2008), propuso usar calculadoras grficas y
el programa matemtico Solver aplicado en Excel, por otra parte Snchez & Lpez
(1999) y Coronado (2012) trabajaron con diseos y aplicaciones interactivas en
Programacin Lineal para internet. Nosotros proponemos usar GeoGebra como
mediador de la enseanza de la Programacin Lineal, pues pensamos que con este
software y las situaciones de aprendizaje propuestas a travs de una serie de actividades
lograremos que los alumnos puedan manipular, conjeturar, esbozar y plantear posibles
soluciones mientras construyen el conocimiento sobre este tema y transitar por los
Registros de Representacin verbal, algebraico y grfico de manera natural y
espontnea, de ah que el marco terico elegido sea la Teora de Registros de
Representacin Semitica de Duval (1995) y el mtodo de investigacin propuesto es
cualitativo y est basado en Hernndez, Fernndez & Baptista. (2007). Finalmente, los
alumnos usando algunos comandos de GeoGebra mostraron habilidad y destreza al
resolver problemas de Programacin Lineal, modelaron matemticamente situaciones
reales, lograron tener mayor precisin en la interseccin de regiones evitando
distorsiones en los mismos, graduaron escalas y visualizaron las representaciones
algebraicas de las inecuaciones a travs de las representaciones grficas vistas en la
ventana de GeoGebra mostrando as un trnsito coordinado y adecuado de registros de
manera natural y espontnea. Palabras claves: Programacin lineal, Registros de
Representacin Semitica y GeoGebra.

The research is focused on teaching the mediated Linear Programming with GeoGebra
software fifth grade secondary education, of School No. 1136 "John F. Kennedy " This
topic is part of the National Curriculum Design and therefore the fifth grade textbook
high school, however, either not considered in the annual curriculum or program is
taught by geometric constructions using pencil and paper. Research such as Malaspina
(2008) and Moreno (2011) found that most students do not have notions of linear
programming, because they didnt studied it in school, this is because the majority of
teachers not included in their annual curricular programming . Moreno (2011) and
Reano (2011) proposed to use pencil and paper to teach linear programming, while
Paiva (2008), proposed using graphing calculators and mathematical program
implemented in Excel Solver, moreover Sanchez & Lopez (1999) and Coronado (2012)
worked with designs and linear programming interactive applications for the Internet.
We propose to use GeoGebra as a mediator of the teaching of Linear Programming,
because we think that with this software and learning situations proposals through a
series of activities that students can achieve manipulate, conjecture, outline and propose
possible solutions while building the knowledge on this subject and transit through the
records verbal representation, algebraic and graph naturally and spontaneously, hence
the theoretical framework chosen is the Representation Theory Semiotics Records
Duval (1995) and the proposed research method is qualitative and is based on
Hernandez, Fernandez & Baptista. (2007). Finally, students using GeoGebra commands
showed some skill and ability to solve linear programming problems, real situations
mathematically modeled, managed to have greater accuracy at the intersection of
regions avoiding distortions in them, graduated scales and algebraic representations
visualized the inequalities through view graphical representations in GeoGebra window
showing well coordinated and adequate transit records naturally and spontaneously.
