A construção de jogos no GeoGebra como recurso para mobilizar a cognição matemática – um estudo na 1ª série do ensino

Abstract

This study discusses the use of GeoGebra software as a resource to mobilize mathematical cognition. The objective was to analyze how the construction of games in GeoGebra software can be a resource to mobilize mathematical cognition in a study with first-year high school students. A qualitative approach was adopted, using a literature review, document analysis, participant observation, and workshops for data collection. The analysis was carried out through triangulation, comparing the results obtained from the literature review with the results collected in the workshop. We concluded that there is a lack of studies addressing mathematical cognition and the use of technologies, specifically with GeoGebra. The construction of games in the software allows for the relationship of mathematics with other areas of knowledge, establishing connections and integrating diverse content. The analyses of the pre- and post-tests showed that GeoGebra is one of the tools that can promote students' mathematical cognition.
