Olimpíada brasileira de matemática das escolas públicas como estímulo no ensino da matemática

Abstract

Over the years, mathematics has been seen as a complex subject, with unattractive classes, bad teachers who like to fail. This erroneous view on the part of students from public schools has been gradually demystified, through Public Policies aimed at teaching mathematics, such as the Brazilian Public School Mathematics Olympiad (OBMEP), which in addition to awakening a taste for the study of mathematics and discovering new talents, has been providing math teachers with the improvement of their pedagogical strategies, thus replacing the traditional way of teaching with the constant search for the most current didactics, which encourage students not only to participate in the Olympics, but also to be winners , and consequently change your reality. Such stimulus and motivation provides both students and teachers with the development of strategies that effectively help in the Teaching-Learning Process of Mathematics.
