The teaching of mathematics requires the review of different approaches to update visions and ways of approaching it in the current student community. Hence the importance of Duval’s theory of semiotic representation registers, since it expresses that the use of representation systems and numerical thinking is unavoidable due to its scope at the level of semiosis and communication of said representations. The objective of this research was to demonstrate the significant influence of a didactic proposal based on Raymond Duval’s theory of semiotic registers in the development of the ability to solve optimization problems using derivatives in the students of the Calculus I subject of the School Mathematics professional from the Faculty of Sciences of the National University of Piura (UNP). Regarding the methodology, the approach was quantitative, longitudinal and explanatory with a pre-experimental experimental design. The study population consisted of twenty students of the Calculus I course during the 2014 II semester. Pre-test and post-test were applied, which confirmed the general hypothesis that the application of the proposal improves the ability to solve optimization problems. It is concluded that the use of several registers of semiotic representation enhance mathematical skills.
