Didactic Basis:
In the learning unit Functions and Relations the student applies the elements of relations and algebraic or
transcendent functions for the modeling and resolution of situations in the real world and analyzes the
characteristics of the conics through their graphic representation. The theoretical-methodological support
is focused on the application of what has been learned and of interest to the students, fostering
collaborative work and promoting reflection, as well as the different forms of evaluation.
The Functions and Relationships learning unit contributes to variational thinking characterized by variation
and change in different contexts. The student recognizes the concepts involved in the definition of function
and its role in modeling; represents and analyzes relationships given by tables, verbal rules, or graphs;
knows and makes graphs of functions of different types, as well as shows the variety of situations that can
be represented by a single type of function and will know how to modify the graph if the parameters of its
algebraic expression are modified. For the learning of his studies, he will have as a background the learning
units: Development of Algebraic Thinking, Handling of Forms and Spaces and as a consequent Probability
and Statistics.
