COMPETENCY-BASED TRAINING MODEL FOR MATHEMATICS TEACHERS IN VIRTUAL PLATFORMS

We display a working model for competencies in the areas of algebra and geometry, designed for implementation through virtual platforms in teacher training. This model arises from the course "Teaching Skills in Algebra and Geometry TeachersTraining" and has worked with freshmen career teachers training at the University of Cuenca, Ecuador. The eight competencies studied are divided into four skills in mathematics and four on mathematical communication proposed by Niss (2003). The model design includes: the creation of multimedia material, a video presentation of content classes, learning activities and assessment rubrics. For its implementation, we have considered alternative methodologies such as the collaborative learning groups and work through the virtual platform Moodle with a group of twelve first-year volunteer students. Currently, this model is available as an open course that also serves as a support tool in the training of mathematics teachers.
