Hybrid education and its effects on mathematics learning at the higher level; [Educación híbrida y sus efectos en el aprendizaje de la matemática en el nivel superior]

Abstract

Introduction: Hybrid education is gaining prominence today in learning at the university level. The objectives of the study were to verify the effects of hybrid education in mathematics, and to prove that it encourages problem solving with relevant results. It was carried out at the National University of Education with the perspective of achieving meaningful learning in students, fusing face-to-face learning with online learning. Methodology: the methodology used is experimental in nature, a field study with a sample of 60 cases, with 2 knowledge tests, of 20 items, with a dichotomous scale, to contrast before and after the use of the hybrid classroom and its effect on learning mathematics at the university level. Results: The effects of hybrid education on the learning of mathematics in university students were verified, translating quantities, understanding of operations, calculation strategies, argumentation on numerical relationships and operations. Conclusions: The conclusions agree with the hypotheses stated, hybrid education allows students to take advantage of technological tools in face-to-face and virtual classes, complementing what they have learned, and improving their learning in mathematics. © 2025, HISIN (History of Information Systems).
