ABSTRACT
Introduction: Diferential and Integral Calculus has traditionally been difficult for students to understand. The introduction of ICT in the teaching of Mathematics constitutes one of the guidelines of this subject. The teaching-learning process of Mathematics requires the introduction of novel methods such as mathematical assistants, who develop learning by enhancing the role of the student as a central subject, turning him into a constructor of knowledge.Objective: To design a Methodological Strategy to improve the learning process of Differential and Integral Calculus in Health Information Systems career.
Method: An experimental study was carried out with the 32 first-year students of the Health Information Systems degree at the "Salvador Allende" Faculty in the 2018-19 academic year. The Control Group received the classes through the traditional way and the Experimental Group used the GeoGebra assistant.
Results: The introduction of GeoGebra allowed movements, transformations and changes in mathematical functions to be made, so that students could reach valid conclusions and assimilate new content more easily.
Conclusions: The application of this strategy by means of using technology, contributes to obtain better results, allows optimizing the time of realization of the exercises, increasing the number of them and the independent work of the student.
