A LINGUAGEM DE PROGRAMAÇÃO SCRATCH NA DISCIPLINA DE MATEMÁTICA: CONTRIBUIÇÕES NO PROCESSO DE ENSINO E DE APRENDIZAGEM DA CRIANÇA

Abstract

This paper discusses a proposal for teaching and learning in the discipline of Mathematics, through the Scratch programming language, so that the child learns to make better use of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICTs), so the present paper presents the concepts of TDICs and Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), digital games, cyberculture and reflects on the use of digital games as a support tool for the teaching and learning of children, especially in the discipline of Mathematics in elementary school I. Thus, the presente paper has as a problem: what are the possible contributions of the Scratch programming language in the teaching and learning process of the child in the Mathematics subject? To assist in the analysis of these contributions, the methodology used was bibliographic research. Through this paper, we seek to demonstrate that there is a pedagogical purpose for digital games and that they can greatly contribute to a meaningful learning for the child.
