description This work presents characteristics and results of the evaluation process developed within the framework of the optional seminar called "Analysis and formulation of mathematical models", offered by the Chair of Calculus for Economic Sciences of the Faculty of Economic Sciences (FCE) of the Universidad Nacional del Litoral (UNL). A formative methodological strategy with emphasis on evaluation is proposed, since the accumulated evidence in the area of ​​science education suggests that the understanding of central ideas in a discipline, as well as the development of scientific practices, demands the active participation of students in the construction of their own knowledge. Assessment matrices were developed considering the following dimensions of analysis: report presentation, mathematical development and skills development, and three assessment coefficients associated with their respective matrices were defined. The first coefficient, coef_1, appraised teamwork and the democratization of knowledge, all of which was satisfactory; coef_2 assessed the ability in solving a mini-case of a parameterized model pre-established by the teachers, where the inconveniences in the work of the use of parameters in mathematics were noted; meanwhile, coef_3 assessed the skill in posing and solving a problem of interest for each team, as well as the ability of interdisciplinary linkage, which evidenced a disconnection between the proposed problem and the mathematical analysis performed. A semi-structured survey was applied to the students in order to know if their expectations when registering for the seminar were met. According to their responses, this was accomplished satisfactorily.

Este trabajo presenta características y resultados del proceso evaluativo desarrollado en el marco del seminario optativo denominado “Análisis y formulación de modelos matemáticos”, ofrecido por la cátedra de Cálculo para Ciencias Económicas de la Facultad de Ciencias Económicas (FCE) de la Universidad Nacional del Litoral (UNL). Se propone una estrategia metodológica formativa con énfasis en la evaluación, puesto que la evidencia acumulada en el área de enseñanza de las ciencias sugiere que la comprensión de ideas centrales en una disciplina, así como el desarrollo de prácticas científicas, demanda la participación activa de los estudiantes en la construcción de su propio conocimiento. Se elaboraron matrices de valoración considerando las dimensiones de análisis: presentación de informe, desarrollo matemático y desarrollo de habilidades, y se definieron tres coeficientes de valoración asociados a sus respectivas matrices. El coef_1 valoró el trabajo de equipo y la democratización del conocimiento, resultando satisfactorio; el coef_2 valoró la capacidad de resolución de un mini caso prefijado por los docentes de un modelo parametrizado, donde se notaron dificultades en el uso de parámetros en matemática; en tanto, el coef_3 valoró la destreza en el planteo y resolución de un problema de interés propio de cada equipo, así como la capacidad de vinculación interdisciplinaria, lo cual evidenció una desvinculación entre el problema propuesto y el análisis matemático realizado. Se aplicó a los estudiantes una encuesta semiestructurada con la finalidad de conocer si sus expectativas al inscribirse al seminario fueron alcanzadas. Según sus respuestas, esto fue cumplido satisfactoriamente.
