Práticas pedagógicas formação na licenciatura em matemática

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to reflect about the pedagogical practice in the training in the undergraduate coruse in mathematics, based on the results of a study developed with high school students attending a public school in the municipality of Parintins/AM. The research was analyzed through a qualitative methodology, focusing on research-action and participant observation technique. A mathematical modeling was used as a educational tool for the development of abilities in trigonometry problems resolution. The rectangle triangle was used in the mathematical model, with the homemade theodolite as an instrument to measure angles. The results point to the effectiveness of mathematical modeling as an important pedagogical resource, which might be associated to the daily activities of students and be a significant educational tool for teaching practice in the teaching-learning process in mathematics. Keywords: Teacher training. Teaching-learning. Mathematical modeling.
