We worked with students in the first differential and integral calculus course, at the division of engineering of the University of Sonora, in order to set up, based on the local linearity notion and the use of a dynamic software, a first introduction to that particular mathematical object, that will let us work subsequently with it through limits. To be able to achieve this, we use some of the theoretical notions of the onto-semiotic approach to the mathematical cognition and instruction.}, msc2010 = {I45xx (U75xx N85xx D45xx)}, identifier = {2015b.00787}, }
