Discentes do Ensino Fundamental interagindo e aprendendo sobre quadriláteros em atividades com smartphones

Abstract

This research seeks to contribute with improvements to the learning of geometry and to reflect on the singularities of touching the screen in the learning of concepts and properties of quadrilaterals. It is a pedagogical intervention in the practice itself, developed through tasks with different purposes (identification, conceptualization and classification of quadrilaterals). Task-design had as one of the structuring axes the use of GeoGebra on smartphones. The field work was divided into six meetings and implemented in 2022 in a private school in the municipality of Seropédica, with students of the sixth year of Elementary School. The data were produced through written records, screenshots and files constructed by the students and field diaries of the researcher. The results indicate that the tasks carried out with the aid of the students' own smartphones and the classroom dynamics contributed to the construction of concepts and properties, for example: the idea of congruence established by the students, the particularities and intersections of the properties of quadrilaterals and the ideas of perpendicularity. As a product, we propose a sequence of activities that provide some students' answers and didactic guidelines for teachers.
