RODRIGUEZ, Ligia Suárez. The School Garden with the use of ICT: the perfect excuse to solve mathematical problems. sophia [online]. 2021, vol.17, n.2, pp.16-26.  Epub Aug 23, 2021. ISSN 1794-8932.  https://doi.org/10.18634/sophiaj.17v.2i.959.

The objective of this research is based on solving mathematical problems from the School Garden and the use of ICT with students from third, fourth and fifth grades of the Clavellinas Educational Institution. The qualitative methodology of participatory action research type applied in this study favors an active interaction of the participating agents and subjects. The sample was selected intentionally or by convenience and the data collection instruments used were interviews, surveys, participant observations, and didactic sequence. The applied research demonstrates that the articulation of the school garden as a pedagogical strategy allows significant advances in the development of problem solving in the five areas of thinking: numerical, spatial, metric, random and variational, and also recognizes the importance of acquiring good eating habits with the consumption of vegetables in the diet. The research validates the pedagogical strategy of articulating the school garden to the area of mathematics, since students acquire skills and abilities to formulate and solve mathematical problems in a creative and competent manner in context.
