Una introducción a la derivada desde la variación y el cambio: resultados de una investigación con estudiantes de primer año de la universidad

The study of calculus plays an important role when it is necessary to quantify or measure any phenomenon. However, in general, in the educational system, formal construction processes and algorithmic aspects have been prioritized. Seeking to answer this problem, an investigation addressing the study of the derivative was started. The work was framed from the perspective of Variational Thought and Language, which studies the relationship between research and social practices that rules the mathematics of change and variation in educational systems.
