SUMMARY:

The objective of this research is to investigate, from the Theory of Objectification, the parameters (content and form) of an introductory course of Astronomy for the teacher of Mathematics, as well as to analyze possible contributions of such course for the formation of this, as a teacher and individual. The Theory of Objectification was the theoretical framework to direct the didactic and pedagogical decisions of the course, influencing the elaboration of activities and the planning of classes, including data collection and analysis. In this sense, we investigated focusing on the qualitative approach. Initially, we sought to identify the essential concepts of Astronomy that could have relevance for teachers of Mathematics. With this, we organized the introductory course of Astronomy using the perspective of the Theory of Objectification. This course was taught in person and directed to teachers of the municipal network of Macaíba / RN, between April 7 and May 4, 2022, with five meetings and duration of 3 hours each. Participants were invited through phone calls and personal approaches. We chose these teachers because of our professional experience having a great approximation with this audience. We decided to focus the course on topics related to the Solar System, the movements of the planets, seasons, astronomical measurement systems, orbits and information about comets and asteroids. For data collection, audio and video recordings of each meeting were recorded. In data analysis, we chose to follow the multimodal analysis approach. We verified from the verbal, gestural and visual semiotic modes possible contributions that the course brought to these teachers, that is, the Objectification and Subjectivation of astronomical knowledge. As a result, we reveal, from the initial conceptions of Mathematics teachers, indications of the awareness of astronomical knowledge by these teachers. Finally, we evidence the thesis that the development and implementation of a course in Astronomy, with a sociocultural approach based on the Theory of Objectification, can contribute significantly to the teacher of Mathematics of Basic Education in his training as an individual and as an educator.
