A matemática no contexto da educação ambiental: relações de aprendizagem

Abstract

This study presents an analysis of mathematics collection to the fundamental learning “Everything is mathematics” of Luís Roberto Dante. Before defining the collection to be analyzed I examined the twenty and three made use collections in the Guide of Didactic Books – Fundamental Learning/MEC. After that I defined as basic criteria of choice the “frequency of use of the collection by publics schools in Pará State”. In this study were chosen fifteen questions in the block treatment of the information in the statistics content – charts and tables – which deals with the environmental questions according to the National Curricular Parameters and the Transversal Themes intentions. The guiding question of this work aims to analysis the collection of mathematics didactic books of fundamental learning most requested in Pará State to investigate whether the selected author by schools by defined criteria articulates conveniently the Mathematics content learning to the environment using representations registers the light of Raymond Duval. I made analysis both quantitative and qualitative in selected books whose purpose is find the questions which the environment is used and enables the learning of the Mathematics. The analysis was done to the charts representations can be more explored to allow the teachers and students an important pedagogical support in the learning of the citizen education in context of environmental education. The number of questions using the environmental thematic in the collection in prominence to the basic education is far from the desirable one for our region. The large scale use of these semiotics representations will possibly reach an acceptable level of students and I believe that the Mathematics social role could rise to higher levels supported by Durval theory due to these representations importance meeting recovery of a world permeated by information. I assume there is a lot work to be done in pursuit of development of this practice both statistically and in terms of attitudinal changes in relation to the environmental and to support the textbook.
