Syllabus

WEEK 1
Concebimos un movimiento diferente
Hablaremos del Modelo Cúbico construido a partir del Modelo Cuadrático. Retomaremos la situación real de movimiento en línea recta creando un movimiento en el que no hay cambio de sentido. Transitaremos al contexto real de llenado de tanques para dar significado a la función cúbica y a su derivada.

WEEK 2
Ecuaciones y funciones cúbicas
Retomaremos el contexto real del movimiento en línea recta para activar procesos algebraicos relacionados con la interpretación gráfica del movimiento. Consideraremos diferentes casos de ecuaciones cúbicas en las que podremos calcular sus soluciones con procedimientos algebraicos sencillos.

WEEK 3
La derivada cuadrática y la función cúbica
Hablaremos del contexto de llenado de tanques para apreciar las diferentes características gráficas que puede tener una función cúbica. Haremos énfasis en la obtención de la derivada y la antiderivada como procesos algebraicos. Utilizaremos la derivada para identificar máximos, mínimos y puntos de inflexión.

WEEK 4
Aplicaciones con cúbicas
Hablaremos de la aplicación conocida como la optimización de funciones considerando el Modelo Cúbico. Con ayuda de la tecnología, interpretaremos el efecto gráfico que se refleja al introducir un parámetro en la representación algebraica de ciertas funciones cúbicas.

Galileo dijo: "El Universo está escrito en lenguaje matemático y los caracteres son triángulos, círculos y otras figuras geométricas, sin las que es humanamente imposible entender una sola palabra". Para entender el Universo, es necesario plantear leyes que expliquen su comportamiento, como pueden ser las leyes de la gravedad, la propagación del calor, el electromagnetismo, la reproducción celular, el crecimiento poblacional, la propagación de las enfermedades, la variación de los precios de las acciones en la bolsa de valores, el comportamiento de las masas ante un conflicto, etcétera.

Introduction to Mathematical Thinking (Coursera)

Learn how to think the way mathematicians do - a powerful cognitive process developed over thousands of years. Mathematical thinking is not the same as doing mathematics – at least not as mathematics is typically presented in our school system. School math typically focuses on learning procedures to solve highly stereotyped problems. Professional mathematicians think a certain way to solve real problems, problems that can arise from the everyday world, or from science, or from within mathematics itself.
