Uso de material concreto para o ensino de planificações de figuras geométricas

Abstract

The main objective of the research is to introduce the use of concrete material in Geometry Teaching, to minimize the learning difficulties of students regarding this content. We also made use of new technologies such as POLY software, a tool for visualizing geometric solids. Another objective is to investigate the qualitative aspects about the use of concrete material in Geometry Teaching. The research was conducted in the city of Barreiras do Piauí- PI, with 20 students, from the 3rd grade of high school. Second sense (IBGE) 2016, municipality has an area of ​​1962,8 km², its population in 2016 is estimated at 3,291 inhabitants, with 665 students enrolled in the municipal network and 300 students enrolled in the state network and has no private educational institution . The data collection instruments were direct questionnaires, in questionnaire 01, the objective is to detail the mathematics teaching currently and then a short course with a workload of 12 hours was performed, after, we applied the specific questionnaire 02 and finally the questionnaire 03, in order to compare traditional education with non-traditional education. Thus, we conclude that the use of concrete material in the teaching of geometry helps in teaching learning, but should be approached continuously and parallel.
