Construções geométricas: uma proposta Metodológica baseada em uma experiência com um Grupo de alunos do ensino médio

Abstract

In this study we present a project, designed as a methodology for teaching geometric constructions, developed with a group of students of the 3rd year of high school in a public school. Initially we reflect on the history of the teaching of Geometry in Brazil from the early twentieth century, analyzing the key facts that contributed positively or negatively to the approach of geometric constructions in schools. This research, which is exploratory and qualitative and quantitative character was developed by conducting classes, which describe, as well as definitions and necessary for the implementation of the same buildings. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the project, we applied two tests, anterior and posterior classes. Finally, enjoying the results and from observations made during classes, we weave considerations, highlighting the possibilities of working with geometric constructions as an ally in learning the concepts and understanding of the properties, as well as a motivator in the teaching-learning Geometry.
