HISTORY OF MATHEMATICS, DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES AND MATHEMATIC RESEARCH IN TEACHING BNCC MATHEMATICAL UNITS FOR 8TH YEAR
History of Mathematics; Digital Information and Communication Technologies; Mathematical Research; National Common Curricular Base; 8th year
This research aims to intertwine the use of the History of Mathematics (HM) associated with Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC), articulated the Mathematical Research (IM) in order to propose an educational product to address the thematic units of Mathematics. BNCC, for the 8th grade classes. We choose the use of MH because of the significant gain in the quality of the teaching-learning relationship that this tool provides, highlighting it as a human creation. We articulate with the use of ICT because we live in a completely technological age and the school cannot be set aside from what is going on in our society, and it serves as a basis to counter critics who claim too much time is spent on using it. from HM in the classroom. Thus, with TDIC this time is optimized, above all, by articulating MI that seeks to bring the spirit of mathematics into an original research process of the mathematician's activity, and can be produced by the student in the process of rediscovery, inspired by history, as the mathematician did in his original development, simulating historical situations / problems that can be investigated with / in technological environments / resources. We highlight the qualitative character of our research and divide it into two phases. The first phase stands out for the bibliographic survey about the use of these pedagogical tools and for conducting a bibliographic research on MH topics in order to produce adequate literature to be used in our product. In this search in line with the BNCC thematic units we come to the following themes: Dirichlet drawer problem (1805 - 1859) which articulates the Numbers unit (unit 1) and the Probability and Statistics unit (unit 5); Geometric transformations in the Cartesian plane that articulate the Algebra unit (unit 2) and the Geometry unit (unit 3); Finally the square of the circle that encompasses the unit of quantities and measures (unit 4). The second phase was the elaboration and application of an educational product, an activity book, which was structured in three blocks subdivided according to the above themes, during its execution the students were able to perform the historical-with-technology research, Therefore, we follow the phases of an investigation in mathematics classes according to Ponte, Brocado and Oliveira (2016).
