Then, the main ideas that constitute the concept of Grundvorstellungen as a didactic discipline are presented. This study aims to develop a didactic analysis oriented to the mathematical thinking that students have about contents seen at school. For this purpose, a research design is presented that will investigate a group of first-year students from two private Chilean universities belonging to engineering careers.enGesellschaft für Didaktik der MathematikTransitionChileMaths UniversityHochschuleAlgebra510conference contribution
