Abstract
This research work focuses on characterizing the abstract logical thinking skills (ALTS) developed by college students; to that end, an electrical circuits simulation software compatible with the learning process of university level students was created; moreover, the cognitive and metacognitive actions exhibited by the participants when operating it were characterized. Dynamic mathematical constructive modeling techniques are employed in the field of metacognition from a perspective of linearization (MPL). An advantage of such an infrastructure design is that the interface deployed is considered affordable and versatile, since it is programmed in open source language (C#) to be accesed online or installed on conventional operating systems. The participants' performance along the preliminary tests was satisfactory. They were presented with a novel user interface executable on Windows or accessible via web browsers. The results made it possible to rate the development of thinking skills and to establish teaching-learning methods and strategies. Their evaluation, argumentation and interpretation represent a meaningful contribution to teaching in general and to educational mathematics in particular.
