Resumen
En el presente artículo se reporta una investigación cuyo objetivo fue identificar las conexiones que un grupo de estudiantes universitarios establecen al resolver problemas en contexto. Estos problemas pueden resolverse utilizando la relación entre la derivada y la integral establecida en el Teorema Fundamental del Cálculo. Para identificar las conexiones adoptamos el marco teórico que al respecto plantea Businskas (2008). Como método de investigación utilizamos el estudio de casos y aplicamos un cuestionario integrado por cinco problemas, de cuyas soluciones obtuvimos los datos. Los datos indican que los estudiantes establecen conexiones extramatemáticas e intramatemáticas al resolver problemas en contexto, pero principalmente utilizan las de tipo procedimental y las representaciones diferentes, además notamos una fuerte conexión con sus conocimientos previos aprendidos en los niveles de educación precedentes al nivel superior.
