METODOLOGIAS ATIVAS PARA O ENSINO DE MATEMÁTICA: POTENCIALIDADES E DESAFIOS

Abstract

Mathematics is a science that is very present in our daily lives, but it has been worked on as a discipline at school and in many cases it may not be well learned by students, as some end up establishing relationships of fear and insecurity with it. We know that mathematics is a difficult subject for students to assimilate, causing disinterest and low school performance and a possible cause may be the traditional teaching method, leaving mathematics unrelated to everyday life. The present research brings in its body reflections about authors under study on the importance of new active methodologies for teaching mathematics. The question that guided the development of this research was: What are the potentialities and challenges of implementing active methodologies in mathematics teaching? Thus, the objective was to identify the potentialities and challenges of implementing active methodologies in mathematics teaching. Thus, the theme is justified by the need to recognize the importance of active methodologies as a means of facilitating learning during the mathematics teaching process. The qualitative and bibliographic research was conducted from the survey on the Google Scholar platform, from which recently published articles and monographs were extracted. Therefore, we conclude that there are currently several studies and proposals to make mathematics classes attractive and meaningful through active methodologies, but many challenges need to be faced, especially in relation to changing the attitudes of educators.
