Socioconstructivist perspectives on the application of IA in mathematics courses in management majors

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed education in Costa Rica and globally, becoming an essential tool. Ethical and responsible use is crucial for teachers, students, and the broader educational community. In higher education, particularly in mathematics courses, AI supports the creation of personalized resources that enhance learning while respecting diversity and encouraging active student participation. From a constructivist and socioconstructivist perspective, AI enables content adaptation to individual needs, helping overcome learning barriers such as visual or attention difficulties. Tools like GeoGebra aid in visualizing complex concepts like functions, improving understanding through interactive graph manipulation. AI also promotes 21st-century skills such as problem-solving and decision-making, which are vital in administrative sciences. It enhances feedback and allows teachers to plan more effectively. Despite challenges like technology access, AI offers a valuable opportunity to enrich education and better prepare students for their professional futures.
