Proposta de abordagem do teorema do ângulo externo na formação continuada de professores de matemática da educação a distância (ead) com o uso do geogebra

Abstract

The use of geometry in everyday life people have significant importance because it is a subject that uses designs, shapes and theorems as studies of evidence to make its activities in various fields of society such as engineering, steel, architecture, topography, etc. In this context, we can say that geometric constructions provide the discovery of valuable ideas that help the understanding of geometric properties. The large-scale assessments presented in public education indicators in the State of Ceara clearly portray the difficulties of learning by students when related to geometric concepts specifically the exterior angle theorem in theory (algebraic concept) and in practice (geometric concept). From this analysis, we propose to conduct an investigation through this research that could identify possible barriers in existing geometry teaching so he could obtain advances to improve the teaching related to the External Angle Theorem and its Consequences using the old learning environments and Paper pen (VPC) and the virtual Learning Environment (VLE) with the operation of educational software of dynamic geometry GeoGebra. The work was attended by a group of twelve (12) mathematics teachers in continuing education of a Specialization Course in Teaching of Mathematics at the University Vale do Acaraú (UVA) in the city of Cascavel-Ce. The operational and pedagogical use of dynamic geometry software GeoGebra was applied in lectures with questionnaires problems involving the exterior angle theorem that seeks to assess the performance of students participating in the survey regarding their classroom practices with the teaching of geometry. We adopted a qualitative, exploratory and action research approaches to characterize the research and seek to build on the theoretical and reflexive assumptions according to Valente conceptions, Michele Artigue, Parents and Fiorentini and Lorenzato. The survey showed progress in the learning process of participating students that were excited by the knowledge that built and that allowed establish a collaborative relationship between the groups involved (students and teacher-researcher).
