| مستخلص: | This quantitative study explored the relationship between the mathematics achievement patterns of eighth grade students in Puerto Rico and their use of computer software application programs for doing mathematics. The theoretical framework used is the educational production function, which allowed the use of a function to analyze this relationship. The researcher analyzed 2015 restricted National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) mathematics data. Data analysis consisted of descriptive statistical analysis and multilevel modeling analysis. Control variables to measure socioeconomic status and absenteeism were included in the multilevel model. Results of this study showed that average scores on NAEP 2015 were higher for students who use computer programs to do mathematics with less frequency than students who use it with more frequency. Understanding the relationship between the use of computer programs to do mathematics and the mathematics achievement of these students help the mathematics education community to cautiously create policies that do not focused on frequency of using technology. The researcher provided a discussion of the results and implications for researchers, administrators and teachers that would help them to target on the improvement of mathematics achievement of students in Puerto Rico. Este trabajo cuantitativo exploró la relación entre patrones de aprovechamiento matemático de estudiantes de octavo grado en Puerto Rico y el uso de programas de computadora para hacer matemáticas. El marco teórico es la función de producción educativa, el cual permitió el uso de una función para explicar esta relación. La investigadora analizó datos restringidos del 2015 de la Evaluación Nacional del Progreso Educativo de Matemáticas (NAEP, por sus siglas en inglés). El análisis de datos consistió en estadística descriptiva y análisis multinivel. En este último, la investigadora utilizó variables control para medir el nivel socioeconómico y el ausentismo |
