Contribuições do desenho geométrico no processo de ensino e aprendizagem de geometria euclidiana plana na educação básica

Abstract

Geometric Drawing is a set of procedures and techniques used to construct geometric figures and solve problems with precision and accuracy, using only a ruler (without graduation) and a compass. However, in Brazilian classrooms, we see many students with difficulties in learning and developing their knowledge of Geometry, whether theoretically, through exercises and activities proposed by the teacher, or in practical situations in everyday life. This article aimed to analyze, from a theoretical and practical perspective, the contributions of Geometric Drawing to the development of reasoning and perception of the concepts of Plane Euclidean Geometry by students in Basic Education. This was a bibliographical research, in which books, articles, monographs and dissertations that address this researched theme were consulted. The aim of this study was to discuss the teaching-learning process of Plane Geometry in basic education, presenting information on methodological procedures that identify the main difficulties in teaching this geometry, in addition to formulating strategies that promote significant learning of this important area of Mathematics based on Geometric Drawing.
