O uso da inteligência artificial no ensino de matemática: possibilidades e limitações pedagógicas

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has played an increasingly significant role in mathematics education, especially with the use of ChatGPT as a tool to support teaching and learning. This study, through a literature review, analyzed the potential, challenges, and strategies for using ChatGPT in mathematics education. The objective was to understand how this technology can be effectively integrated into the educational environment by exploring its benefits and limitations. The methodology adopted consisted of a bibliographic review based on recent articles discussing the impact of AI on mathematics education. Research examining the application of ChatGPT as a pedagogical support tool, its influence on students' learning, and the challenges faced by teachers in adopting this technology was investigated. The results showed that ChatGPT can assist in the personalization of teaching, the development of computational thinking, and the resolution of mathematical problems, provided it is used with appropriate pedagogical strategies. However, excessive dependence on AI, the quality of generated responses, and the need for teacher training are challenges that must be overcome to ensure its efficient use. It is concluded that ChatGPT can be a valuable resource in mathematics education, provided it is used in a balanced manner and aligned with well-structured pedagogical practices. Teacher training and investment in infrastructure are essential for AI to contribute positively to mathematics learning.
