Active learning methodologies in Mathematics: circumference equation and creative bridge construction

Abstract

We aim to investigate and understand the learning process of the circumference equation content from the creative production of circular roof bridges. Guided by the Active Learning Methodologies, data production was performed with the students of the 3rd year of Goiano Federal Institute High School, in Ipameri (GO). The data produced were analyzed from elements of constructionism identified in the mobilized activities. The results provide clues to understand the learning process of the circumference equation from the production of creative bridges in a dynamic, collective and nonlinear movement, emphasizing aspects of the construction of ideas / meanings of Analytical Geometry and corroborating the importance of active learning. contextual-creative and argumentative-reflective in the classroom.
