Mathematical word problem solving in secondary education bilingual students of 10th grade in Andalusia, Spain

Abstract

Esta investigación se lleva a cabo en un instituto de educación secundaria en Andalucía dónde se emplea un enfoque AICLE (Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lengua Extranjera). El propósito de este estudio es averiguar si el uso de la segunda lengua en las pruebas de matemáticas tiene alguna influencia en el proceso de resolución de problemas por parte de los estudiantes de secundaria, afectando a la práctica de la evaluación. Se seleccionaron estudiantes de dos grupos de 4ª de ESO, que forman parte del programa bilingüe, para realizar una prueba utilizando los estímulos liberados de PISA 2006 y 2012. Se analizó el nivel de comprensión lectora del alumnado utilizando una evaluación basada en estándares, ya que se considera que es un factor importante en la resolución de problemas. Las preguntas PISA se dividieron en dos cuadernillos A y B, ambos con preguntas en español e inglés. Las preguntas que están en inglés en un cuadernillo están en español en el otro. La selección de los problemas se realizó de acuerdo al nivel real de comprensión lectora y a la competencia matemática de los estudiantes. Se pasó un cuestionario al alumnado para analizar si algunos factores del contexto están afectando al desempeño matemático en la segunda lengua, incluyendo además algunas preguntas relacionadas con la historia bilingüe del alumnado así como su percepción a la hora de resolver problemas en inglés. Los resultados muestran que la resolución de problemas se ve afectada por el uso de la segunda lengua pero que también depende de la dificultad matemática.

This research takes place in a bilingual high school in Andalusia where CLIL approach is followed (Content and Language Integrated Learning). The purpose of this study is to find out if the use of the second language in mathematic tests has any influence in the process of Word problem solving by bilingual secondary students, affecting the assessment practice. Students from two groups from 4th of ESO, who take part in the bilingual program, were selected to pass a test using the PISA 2006 and 2012 released mathematics items. The reading comprehension level of the students is analysed by the use of a standardized-based assessment, as it is considered to be an important factor in solving word problems. PISA questions were divided in two booklets A and B, both with questions in Spanish and English. The questions that are in English in one booklet are in Spanish in the other. The selection of the word problems is made according to the actual level of reading-comprehension and mathematical competence of the students. A questionnaire was passed to learners in order to analyse if some contextual factors are affecting the mathematical performance in the second language, besides including some questions related to the bilingual history of the students and their perception about solving Word problems in English. Results show that solving word problems is affected by the use of the second language but it also depends on the mathematical difficulty.
