Tecnologias na educação matemática: uma proposta a partir da pedagogia crítica

Abstract

This work is a bibliographical survey that synthesizes a critique of neoliberal policies in education today, a fact that has year after year diminished the quality of teaching developed in public schools at primary and secondary levels, focusing on the game of manipulation aimed at greater socialization of students at school. The aim of this work is to present a proposal for teaching Excel in mathematics classes in school laboratories, and in this proposal we worked on calculating the BMI (Body Mass Index) in order to alert students to the risks that obesity brings to people's health. However, using data such as weight and height, we can quickly calculate the result and find out whether a person is underweight, overweight or obese. As a conclusion, we believe that it is necessary to look for new strategies for teaching and learning mathematics inside and outside the classroom, because not all students learn in the same way or at the same pace, and by providing new teaching strategies, it is possible to reach a greater number of students, allowing them to learn.
