Percepção de professores de matemática em formação inicial acerca do uso do aplicativo Plickers como ferramenta avaliativa de aprendizagem

Abstract

The present study investigated the perception of students with a Degree in Mathematics about the use of Plickersapplication as a learning assessment tool from qualitative research configured as a participant, using questionnaires and participant observation as research techniques. The 11 research subjects performed a formative evaluation using the application and, shortly after, evaluated it technically and pedagogically. The results showed the students' interest in using Plickers, in which they indicated little operational difficulties and, as the task was developed, adopted a critical-reflexive posture. We verified that Plickerscan be a relevant technological tool for Mathematics classes, and we realize that researches like these go beyond resource evaluation, contributing to the initial formation of teachers since they allow a critical look at the task performed,which in this study was focused on aspects about new evaluative possibilities of learning.
