explicación matemática, educación primaria, educación secundaria, metodología PRISMA, formación docente, desarrollo pedagógico, aprendizaje efectivo, revisión sistemáticaResumen
Introducción: La investigación sobre la explicación en la enseñanza de matemáticas en la educación primaria y secundaria es crucial para mejorar la comprensión y el aprendizaje efectivo de conceptos matemáticos. Este estudio se enfoca en analizar las investigaciones empíricas que han abordado la explicación en la enseñanza de las matemáticas en estos niveles de enseñanza, publicadas en los últimos cinco años en revistas indexadas en la Web of Science. Metodología: Se realiza una revisión de la literatura, siguiendo la metodología PRISMA para garantizar un análisis sistemático y reproducible. Resultados: Los hallazgos destacan que la investigación en los niveles educativos de primaria y secundaria sobre la explicación matemática es escasa. Predominan estudios con innovaciones docentes que le otorgan un rol secundario a la calidad de la explicación. Discusión: Se discute la necesidad de formación continua para los docentes, enfatizando la importancia de las explicaciones claras y adaptadas a las necesidades de los estudiantes para facilitar un aprendizaje profundo y duradero, así como las implicaciones prácticas del estudio. Conclusiones: Este estudio subraya la oportunidad de expandir la investigación en este campo para enriquecer las prácticas pedagógicas y mejorar la enseñanza de las matemáticas en niveles educativos fundamentales.
