Explorando o uso do computador na formação de professores de ciências e matemática à luz da aprendizagem significativa e colaborativa

Abstract

The computer and information technologies and communication in the twenty-first century have represented a benchmark, the current knowledge society in which data and information accessed via the Web, can potentially generate new scientific knowledge. Need is then articulate the pedagogical TDIC to the classroom by integrating them into the curriculum, aiming at (re) vision about doing science (in) school. Taking as significant theoretical learning and collaborative learning seeking to broaden the learning strategies, was made use of the constructivist theory of Valens, in order to reflect on the apprehension of knowledge with the use of the computer as a tool for facilitating learning. Thus began this research entailing the (re) building collaborative scientific and mathematical education in basic education based on collaboration and employment of TDIC to develop this thesis. The field of analysis of the research was the discipline of Mathematics and Science Teaching, offered in 2010 for students of the Professional Masters in Teaching Science and Mathematics. The methodological approach employed in the research was qualitative textual analysis. This analysis consisted of the investigation data that prioritizes assessment of written reports, seeks to elaborate new meanings and understandings about the broader problems analyzed. The textual analysis was based on qualitative (three) distinct aspects: the process of unitarization or disassembly of the texts studied, the process of categorization or establishment of relations between the identified information and communication. Support tools were employed to pesquisação twenty-nine forums and tool profile within the AVA TELEDUC trying to understand the interplay between-transcribed reports produced in forums, to verify the underlying aspects related to the construction of knowledge and learning telecolaborativa. The opinions, reinterpretation and experimental reports whose contents were assimilated constituted a corpus analysis to verify the learning process and the relationships involved in the process of cooperation between teachers, while the circumstances that promote conceptual and attitudinal changes in teachers Pupils in the process of strictu sensu education.
