AB - This research implemented a model of structural equations aimed at determining the
possible causal relationship between the mathematical processes mentioned in the national
teachers council mathematics and academic performance in mathematics. The level of
development of the mathematical processes promoted by the teacher was analyzed, in students
of the fourth to seventh grades of basic education in three public educational institutions of the
San José de Cúcuta, Colombia, characterized by obtaining levels of performance (respectively)
in the Saber 11 tests of 2018. The sample size was 400 students enrolled in 2019. A questionnaire
was proposed and validated that included sociodemographic information of students and then
determined the presence and development of the various mathematical processes in classroom
work. The results highlight that, of the five mathematical processes, reasoning, representation
and problem solving are presented as determining variables of academic performance in students,
while the processes of communication and connections are little work in the classroom by
teachers. From the results obtained arises as future research, determine what teachers understand
by mathematical problems? How do you promote problem solving in the classroom?
