Abstract This article discusses results from research developed on the transformations in mathematics teaching in primary school and the mathematics in teacher training from the 19th century to the mid-20th century in Brazil. We have analyzed the understanding of the relationship between the mathematical disciplinary field and pedagogy in order to confirm the theoretical hypothesis that the interactions between the two fields produce mathematics of different natures, which are interconnected.

Resumo: Neste trabalho, são apresentados resultados de uma pesquisa que tem como objetivo analisar como professores em formação continuada, participantes da disciplina de Fundamentos de Cálculo Diferencial de um curso de Mestrado em Ensino de Matemática, interpretam e relacionam as informações explicitadas pelas diferentes representações do conceito de taxa de variação. Para tanto foi aplicada uma sequência de atividades sobre as diferentes representações do conceito de taxa de variação e as respostas das questões foram analisadas e categorizadas. Os resultados apontam que, apesar de terem trabalhado o conceito de taxa de variação em seus cursos de licenciatura em Matemática, alguns professores ainda apresentam dificuldades para compreender esse conceito e relacionar suas diferentes representações. Pela análise dos dados, considera-se que as atividades propostas proporcionaram a evolução da ideia intuitiva de taxa de variação e favoreceram a compreensão desse conceito pelos participantes da pesquisa.Palavras-chave: Taxa de variação; Formação de professores; Imagem de conceito; Definição de conceito. Comprehension of the variation rate concept by teachers in continued trainingAbstract: In this work, results of a research are presented that aim to analyze how teachers in continuous formation, participants in the discipline of Fundamentals of Differential and Integral Calculus of a Master course in Mathematics Teaching, interpret and relate the information explained by the different representations of the concept of rate of variation. For this, a sequence of activities was applied on the different representations of the concept of rate of variation and the answers of the questions were analyzed and categorized. The results show that, although they have worked on the concept of rate of variation in their undergraduate courses in Mathematics, some teachers still find it difficult to understand this concept and to relate their different representations. By analyzing the data, it is considered that the proposed activities provided the evolution of the intuitive idea of rate of variation and favored the understanding of this concept by the research participants.Keywords: Rate of variation; Teacher training; Concept image; Definition of concept.

Resumo: Este estudo objetivou discutir sobre os fatores que contribuem para o sucesso e o fracasso nos cursos de Licenciatura em Ciências e Matemática de um centro acadêmico vinculado a uma Instituição de Ensino Superior (IES) do Estado da Paraíba, Brasil, a partir da compreensão dos licenciandos sobre tais elementos. Assim, buscou-se analisar se estes fatores interferem na permanência e no abandono dos estudantes em seus cursos universitários. Com uma abordagem qualitativa, a pesquisa fez uso de um questionário como instrumento de coleta de dados, que foi aplicado a 22 licenciandos. Os estudantes questionados, em sua grande maioria, colocam a referência para o sucesso basicamente no esforço próprio, salientando a dedicação e a perseverança próprias. Quando se discute a relação que os licenciandos estabelecem com o fracasso, vários foram os fatores considerados como deflagradores dos insucessos ocorridos, com considerável peso na didática utilizada pelos seus professores.Palavras-chave: Matemática; Formação de Professores; Fracasso; Sucesso. Success and failure in Mathematics teaching: what says future teachers of an IES?Abstract: This study aimed to discuss the factors that contribute to success and failure in the degree courses in Science and Mathematics of the academic center linked to an Institution of Higher Education (IES) in the State of Paraíba, Brazil, through students’ understanding of such elements. Thus, it was sought to analyze if these factors interfere in the permanence and the abandonment of the students in their university courses. With a qualitative approach, the research made use of a questionnaire as an instrument of data collection, which was applied to 22 graduates. Most of the questioned students place the reference to success primarily in their own effort, emphasizing their own dedication and perseverance. When discussing the relationship that the students establish with failure, several factors were considered as triggers of the failures occurred, with considerable weight in the didactic used by their teachers.Keywords: Mathematics; Teacher Training; Failure; Success.

AbstractHow to integrate mathematics, psychology, pedagogy and practical teaching within the didactics of mathematics in order to get unified specific theories and conceptions of mathematics teaching? This problem—relevant for theoretical and empirical studies in mathematics education as well as for teacher training—is considered in the present paper. The author suggests an approach which is based on teaching units (Unterrichtsbeispiele). Suitable teaching units incorporate mathematical, pedagogical, psychological and practical aspects in a natural way and therefore they are a unique tool for integration. It is the aim of the present paper to describe an approach to bridging the often deplored gap between didactics of mathematics teaching on one hand and teaching practice, mathematics, psychology, and pedagogy on the other hand. In doing so I relate the various aspects of mathematics education to one another. My interest is equally directed to teacher training and to the methodology of research in mathematics education. The structure of the paper is as follows. First I would like to make reference to and characterize an earlier discussion on the status and role of mathematics education; secondly, I will talk about problems of integration which naturally arise when mathematics education is viewed as an interdisciplinary field of study. The fourth and essential section will show how to tackle these problems by means of teaching units. The present approach is based on a certain conception of mathematics teaching which is necessary for appreciating Sect. 4. This conception is therefore explained in Sect. 3.

It is not easy to answer the question of how the complex mathematics teaching experiment – marked by the name of Tamás Varga – affects my work. Working at ELTE’s Department of Mathematics in the Faculty of Primary and Pre-School Education, the principles and results of the experiment are the foundation of my every lecture. In this writing, I will try to show how this works in my practice. Classification: B50; E40; D50; E10; M10. Keywords: Tamás Varga, Complex mathematics teaching experiment, teacher training for primary and pre-school education, alpha-generation, digital tools and learning materials

Este artigo apresenta um relato de experiência sobre a utilização de jogos online nas aulas da disciplina Saberes e Metodologias do Ensino de Matemática 1, no Curso de Pedagogia, da Universidade Federal de Alagoas (UFAL), do Centro de Educação (CEDU), como prática educativa na formação do pedagogo, a partir de jogos disponíveis na internet. Baseado nos estudos de Lara (2003), Souza (2004), Rosa Neto (1998), Alves (2006), Fiorentini e Lorenzato (2006), Brasil (2006), Nóvoa (1992), Nacarato e Paiva (2006) e Jarandilha e Splendore (2005) sobre o lúdico no ensino de Matemática e jogos online buscou-se a fundamentação téorica. Foi constatado que os jogos online matemáticos são pouco utilizados pelos alunos nas aulas do Curso de Pedagogia e quando bem utilizados as aulas se tornam mais prazerosas e investigativas. Palavras-chave: Ensino de Matemática. Jogos Online. Formação do pedagogo.  ABSTRACT This article presents a report of an experiment on the use of Online Games in classes of the discipline ‘Knowledge and Teaching Methods of Mathematics 1’, in Pedagogy Course from Federal University of Alagoas (UFAL), Education Center (CEDU), as an educational practice of the teacher training, from games available on the internet.
