Influence on Significant Learning of the Linear Algebra Subject through Scilab

Abstract:

This paper presents the application of the mathematical software Scilab as a didactic tool for the treatment of some topics of the subject of Linear Algebra, for the subject of first-level at Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE-l. We present algorithms to check the definitions of certain themes considered abstract in their understanding as they are vector spaces, linear dependence, linear independence and linear transformations among which stands out in this document. The results obtained by applying the Scilab software in a group of first level students of engineering, for the validation of the proposal we use the Chi-square criterion that validates the proposed hypothesis.
