Resumen

De acuerdo con TIMSS 2019 (INEE, 2020), los alumnos singapurenses son capaces de resolver problemas verbales más difíciles que los alumnos españoles. Puesto que en ambos países los libros de texto son el recurso principal que utiliza la mayoría de los profesores para enseñar a sus alumnos a resolver problemas, es posible que existan algunas diferencias en relación con la dificultad semántico-matemática de los problemas aritméticos verbales que presentan los libros de texto de Singapur y España. Por este motivo, se realizó una comparación cuantitativa del nivel de dificultad semántico-matemática de los problemas de los libros de la editorial española Santillana y de la principal editorial singapurense (Marshall Cavendish). Los libros de Singapur contenían problemas más difíciles que los españoles, si bien en todos los libros la gran mayoría de los problemas eran fáciles. Las diferencias encontradas podrían ser el reflejo de algunas diferencias en los currículos de Singapur y España.
