Análisis de la Evolución de la Disponibilidad Léxica en la Interacción Pedagógica

Abstract

The objective of the study is to analyze the evolution of the lexical availability in the pedagogical interaction using descriptive statistics and a vectorial space representation. The design is longitudinal with pre and post measurement. Thus, the evolution of the lexical availability of the students with respect to the center of interest, Statistics in a course of Research Methodology, was measured. Sixty-two students from two pedagogy careers that generated a total of 1747 words participated in the study. The results revealed that there is a statistically significant difference for student lexicon evolution, which is consistent with other similar studies. In conclusion, it is suggested the usefulness of the proposed approach as a quantitative measure that allows verifying the evolution of the lexical availability of students in the pedagogical interaction in a specific context.
