Starting from the study of the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC), more specifically from the parts of Mathematics, the present work sought to understand this normative document and with that we find indicated ways to work the content of exponential function. Thus, after studying the BNCC, a search was made in books and academic papers about the content of exponential function that provided us with a theoretical foundation to apply in solving problems related to some skills listed in the BNCC. To conclude, we propose three playful activities to work exponential function with a focus on skills expressed at BNCC

The work presented here aims to present an approach to the study of complex numbers, introducing the concept of Möbius Transformations for high school students, through playful activities. In it, presents the historical aspectsof complex numbers, their algebraic structure and representation on the Cartesian plane, to later insert the study of functions involving complex numbers, in order to significantly complement the study of such content. The dissertation is justified by the fact that many students havedifficulties with the algebraic manipulations of complex numbers, as well as the behavior of their operations on the Cartesian plane. Aiming at a qualitative character, the playful methodology was chosen as the primary tool to facilitate the studies of Möbius Transformations. We also use the foundations of some pedagogical theoreticians, historians and students of Mathematics, in order to relate the student's cognitive development, contributing to their social formation and, possibly, arousing interest in the discipline

This work aims to carry out an analysis on the importance of Problem Solving in Elementary Education. In the course of this study, strategies and paths emerged in which educators in the area of Mathematics can appropriate themselves to know and improve their views on the topic, as well as to become aware of how important it is to value the problem solving process. In the research carried out, other important factors in the process of knowledge and appropriation of the study were also described by the great scholars of the theme, such as George Polya (1995) and Dante (2010), who emphasize the teaching-learning process since the human being is challenged to solve problems constantly in his life. These facts can influence both math teachers and their students. We present a brief profile of teachers working in elementary school, pointing out the need for continued training in the area of Mathematics, especially for professionals working in the early years. We show concepts, types, goals and suggestions for how the teacher can use problem solving in the classroom. And, we also expose how students in the early years begin to perceive a mathematical problem.Finally, we suggest an Educational Product through continuous training, in order to assist and enrich the methods used by teachers in their daily school practices.

In High School, there is a lack of interesting applications related to the study of complex num-bers, which is sometimes reflected in an arid approach to this topic, which is, almost, yourcharacteristic. In this work, we aim to provide for the teacher unusual applications of alge-bra and geometry of complexes, through which he can motivate and illustrate his classes byteaching them, connecting them to the resolution and discussion of linear systems with smalldimension overR. In this context, we will establish an interpretation of Cramer’s method in thecomplex plane, which we will call the “Rule of Dual Terms”. This will require, by extension,the acts of defining and exploring the “Horizontal and Vertical Transliners of SpaceMn×m(C)”which we will prove to be diagonalizable automorphisms.

This work presents an introduction to the Logic used in the development of Axiomatic Theories associated with the Basic Education Mathematics Curriculum according to the Common National Curriculum Base. Emphasis is given to the discussion regarding the most used demonstration methods to justify the main mathematical results presented at this level. It highlights, among others, the Methods of Demonstration by Direct Proof, Reduction to Absurdity and Mathematical Induction, being that, unlike most of the literature, it presents the whole relation of these methods with Logic its principles, operations and rules of inference fundamental prerequisites justification for their use. In particular, it makes a more comprehensive discussion of the Mathematical Induction Method associating it both to the Induction Principle or Axiom and to the Induction Theorem, demonstrating it and presenting its various applications whether in the rigorous definition of mathematical objects or as a powerful instrument to demonstrate the most varied results involving natural numbers in basic education. In addition, it brings examples of Axiomatic Theories developed at this level and enunciates several Theorems making their respective demonstrations using one or more of the demonstration methods presented including the demonstration in standard argument notation thus explaining its direct relationship with logic and its algebra. The work can be used as a reference material for the teacher of basic education or graduating from a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics who wants to deepen with respect to Theorem Demonstration Techniques and all the Logic behind this process.

This research presents a study on the use of Problem-Based Learning in mathematics, and more specifically, in Geometry classes among elementary school students, both in regular and youth and adult education, based on the observation that students, in general, have little identification with mathematics at this stage of their education. To this end, a historical and philosophical background that supports its use in several professional areas and its application in the field of mathematics was conducted. To support the formatting of a pedagogical proposal for each of the teaching modalities mentioned above, an analysis and evaluation of the documents that govern Brazilian education, of the textbooks currently adopted, and of the menus of the related disciplines in undergraduate mathematics courses was carried out, as well as a comparison between them. The work culminates with the presentation of the pedagogical sequences, which are presented in three stages, the first one explaining the use of the methodology in general and the two following stages with concrete, specific and detailed proposals, one for students in the seventh grade of elementary school, regular modality, and the other for students of youth and adult education, in the first cycle.

In view of the need for teaching and learning methods in the sphere of Mathematical Education, which aim to encourage the student to seek mathematical knowledge and apply it in their social context, the present work addresses and analyzes the contributions of Mathematical Modeling as a pedagogical proposal. The study was carried out in the second semester of 2020, in classes of the 9th grade of Elementary School II at Municipal College Cônego Tôrres, which is located in the Pernambuco municipality of Serra Talhada. In addition, with the perspective of relating the content experienced in the school environment with the sociocultural factors of the students, the theme of beauty contests was chosen, the predominant popular manifestations in the region and which are commonly held in educational institutions, titled Miss and Mister Student.

In the current stage of teaching in Brazil, the configuration of the school curriculum, the methodologies employed, the guiding principles of high school educational practices, are constant fields of intense debate, with the aim that the school can perform consistently and appropriately the its social and citizenship role. In this scenario, the teaching and learning of Mathematics, especially with regard to the curriculum and teaching methodologies, is routinely the subject of studies and investigations, in view of the problem that insistently plagues the processes of learning and teaching this science, namely: mathematics teaching cast in an algebraized practice. This apparent concern can be proven from the various events that include the teaching and learning of Mathematics as a subject of study, books dealing with the theme, varied publications and the recommendations of the country's normative documents, such as National Curriculum Parameters - PCN, PCN + , National Education Guidelines and Bases Law - LDBEN, and the National Curriculum Guidelines for Basic Education. In this scenario, mathematical visualization constitutes a means of developing relevant skills in subjects, not only for the broad and meaningful understanding of mathematical knowledge, but for life in society. In this context, this work aims to understand how teaching is taking place. and learning mathematics, through mathematical visualization related to problem solving, in the country. Thus, the intention to analyze the ENEM selections arose, focusing on the problems with the highest percentage of error and which demonstrate the lack of visualization for resolution. Problem solving is, in this universe, a method to be followed to assist in the resolution process. Still, as we solve the selected problems, we make available material that can be useful to anyone who is interested, especially to the Basic Education teacher. , as a means of helping and encouraging the use of visualization in the classroom.

This work aims to provide support to teachers and the school in this new structuring of the New High School, presenting a proposal of a formative itinerary that unites two areas of knowledge of the BNCC: Mathematics and Human Sciences. In addition to directing the teacher in knowledge beyond his area. A priori, we seek to present a synthesis of how this reform will restructure education. Right after that, we present complementary suggestions and tips, in order to guide the teacher in his methodologies and practices. And finally, we propose theitinerary “The Geometry and Cartography of planet Earth” that explores notions of spherical geometry as well as cartography. It addresses current issues such as whether the land debate is flat or not. Contains ENEM’squestions and practical experiments. This material will serve as a base, being totally possible to reduce or enlarge it as needed.

The present work brings a proposal of Didactic Sequence (SD) that uses the resolution of problems related to the themes of Arithmetic of the Brazilian Public Schools Mathematics Olympiad (OBMEP), from its question bank, from the material of "Arithmetic Meetings"of the Scientific Initiation Program (PIC), with the aim of developing BNCC (Common National Curriculum Base) skills EF06MA05, EF06MA06, and EF07MA01. To analyze the effectiveness of DS, the proposal was applied to two first grade high school classes at a state school located in the city of Arapiraca-AL. In solving these problems, we sought to reflect on the procedures used in each question, motivating students’ critical thinking, seeking to motivate and instigate their participation in classes. Working with OBMEP’s problems is to bring mathematics in a different way, closer to everyday life and demystify the image of a rigid and purely calculating discipline.

This work aims to present a brief study and a methodological explanation about parameterized curves and their applications and examples in everyday life. We will discuss the historical context that led to its improvement, through some notable mathematicians such as Descartes and Fermat. Usually, in the study of Cartesian curves, we adopt only one dependent variable and one independent variable (Y = f(x)), but we are faced with situations where there are curves that are often difficult or even impossible to be expressed explicitly by a function of a single variable. In this case, we need another variable, called “parameter”, which helps us to better explain the curves, that is, the parameterized curves. With that, in this work we present the characterization of the parametric curves and some techniques to draw such curves. We've also dealt with some notable curves such as the Cycloid and the Epicycloid. We also deal with some applications of parameterized curves in everyday life.
