Web Application to Improve the Competencies in the Area of Mathematics of 4th Grade

The objective of this research was to determine how a Web Application influences the improvement of mathematics competencies of 4th-grade students of an educational institution. For this purpose, the ability of the students to solve problems with respect to the competencies in the area of mathematics was studied. In this type of applied research with a quasi-experimental design with a quantitative approach was used. For data collection, the survey technique was used with the questionnaire instrument, which was validated by expert judgment and analyzed by means of the Kr-20 reliability analysis, showing a favorable acceptance with a coefficient of 0.802. To measure the proposed indicators, a sample of 30 students was used, obtained from a population of a similar size. On the other hand, in the analysis of the data, use was made of the SPSS Statistics 28 statistical program, in which descriptive and inferential statistics were applied, as well as the Wilcoxon nonparametric hypothesis test. The results obtained showed that the use of the Web Application has a positive influence on the improvement of competencies in the area of mathematics, given that the significance obtained in its dimensions was less than 0.001, which is less than the theoretical significance α = 0.05, thus rejecting the null hypothesis and accepting the alternative hypotheses proposed.
