Resumen

This research focuses on teaching strategies for linking abstract content of algebraic structures (groups, rings, modules) with contemporary applications in students at FCNM-UNAC, Callao 2025. It identifies problems such as student demotivation due to the lack of connection between theory and practice, and proposes active methodologies, digital tools, and contextualized approaches to improve knowledge understanding, application, and transfer. The study uses a quantitative experimental design with pre- and post-tests, validating hypotheses through statistical tests (Student t-test, Wilcoxon test). The results show significant improvements in all the dimensions evaluated (conceptual understanding, application, transfer, and symbolic representation), confirming the effectiveness of the implemented strategies.
