Impacto do material lúdico no ensino da matemática financeira em escolas públicas municipais de Cocal-PI

Abstract

Mathematics is related to logical proportion and practical situations, seeking to highlight the veracity of facts through exact techniques. Due to its importance, and the fact that we are incessantly in contact with it, it becomes plausible that we, as rational human beings, begin to look for ways to understand and use it. Starting from the idea that thinking can be developed and improved, we can treat playful materials as facilitating instruments in the teaching-learning process. These will end up generating new stimuli for students, bringing them another form of learning, that is, one that sees the act of playing and the practical way in which content is developed as transformative. In this way, we will seek, in a practical and objective way, to investigate the effectiveness of such materials in teaching Financial Mathematics, in municipal public schools in Cocal-PI. Through dialogue with teachers and students, together with classroom observation, we found that financial studies, although numerous and of undeniable usefulness, are operated and catalyzed with difficulties in school activities. The present study intends to expose the need for the appropriation of playful instruments by teachers as a possible solution to this dilemma, that is, how teaching in the classroom can be leveraged, and introduced in such a way, that it can disable the exclusive use of traditional practices in teaching
