Algeplan como recurso didático nas aulas do 8º ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

Due to the experience as a Mathematics teacher in the final years of elementary school, and observing the various difficulties in learning Arithmetic and pre-Algebra in students from 6th to 9th grade, scientific articles in journals and specialized academic events about learning resources were used to research and find means that facilitates the learning of knowledge and skills in Algebra in Basic Education. Among the didactic resources obtained, Algeplan was observed. The following research problem was developed: what are Algeplan's potential for teaching basic operations with 1st and 2nd degree polynomials in the 8th year of elementary school? The research has as main objective to identify how Algeplan's potentialities to teach the basic operations with 1st and 2nd degree polynomials in the 8th year of elementary school. The specific goals are: a) to present Algeplan as a didactic resource in basic operations classes with 1st and 2nd grade polynomials in the 8th grade of elementary school, b) to show an Algeplan model built with the students and c) Develop lesson plans with Algeplan as a teaching resource in basic operations classes with 1st and 2nd degree polynomials in the 8th year of elementary school. The research is qualitative in the form of a bibliographic study on the theme developed.
