the four axes established in the Mathematics Study
Programs, which will be evaluated by the EGE quarterly.

the learning strategies are participatory and active for the
students, where specific actions are also considered for
priority students.

Advise and guide in the planning of teaching The UTP will support teachers monthly in planning the uses

Educational Improvement Plan
Strengthening the Curriculum The technical pedagogical unit together with the head
teachers of the course organize the Study Plan in such a way
that it considers, at least, one pedagogical hour per week for
the development of the problem-solving axis and one hour
per week for geometry work.

Plan and disseminate strategies to strengthen The technical pedagogical unit and the level teachers who
achievements in mathematics work in the Mathematics sector will plan and disseminate
among their peers strategies to improve learning
achievements, especially in the axes of Problem Solving
and Form and Space, which will subsequently be evaluated.
Mathematics Workbook Preparation Every two months, the technical pedagogical unit and the
Workshop mathematics teachers will participate in the Workshop on
the Preparation of the Mathematics Workbook, which the
students must develop at each of the levels and which will
be focused on the Key Learning of Mathematics.
