O uso do Geoplano Digital em sala de aula como proposta para cálculo de áreas dos quadriláteros

Abstract

This research aimed to point out a different path for the teaching of geometry, using for this the Digital Geoplano as a mediator in the process of teaching and learning. The constructivist idea is present at all times in the presentation of this project, where the student is encouraged to build their knowledge, unlike the traditional method, with imposition of theories where the pupil appears as a taxpayer. The work is an attempt to arouse greater interest of the student in relation to mathematics, specifically geometry, converging, then, for this to make your own discoveries and becoming aroused the curiosity of students for this learning. This project was based on the theoretical Vygotsky, Piaget and Dewey, which provided subsidies for their development and for achieving the goals. The effectiveness of the teaching methodology proposed was proven with the completion of field work, where we note the extraordinary contribution of software Digital Geoplano as a pedagogical resource, besides the great importance of the interaction between student-student and student-teacher knowledge construction individual.
