dc.description	This work is based on our conviction that it is possible to minimize difficulties students face in learning the principle of mathematical induction by means of clarifying its logical aspects. Based on previous research and theory, we designed a method of fostering students’ understanding of the principle. We present results that support the effectiveness of our method with teachers in training who are not specializing in mathematics.</p> <p>Este trabajo está basado en nuestra convicción de que es posible minimizar las dificultades de los alumnos cuando se enfrentan al aprendizaje del principio de inducción matemática mediante la clarificación de sus aspectos lógicos. Basándonos en la investigación y teoría previas, diseñamos un método para fomentar la comprensión del principio por los alumnos. Presentamos resultados que respaldan la efectividad de nuestro método con profesores en formación no especializados en matemáticas.
