A formação matemática dos cursos de pedagogia: mapeamento de dissertações defendidas no período de 2012 a 2022

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to present an initial sketch of the general panorama of scientific production in dissertations about the mathematical formation of Pedagogy courses, seeking to understand how this formation has been approached in the studies already carried out. The dissertations were obtained through searches on Google, Google Scholar, Capes Theses Bank and Thesis and Dissertation Repository. The nature of the research was exploratory and analytical, the methodology was guided by mapping in educational research. In the analyzed period, we inventoried a set of 12 dissertations, with 12 authors and 11 supervisors. Since the years 2012 and 2018 concentrated more than half of this production and approximately two thirds of the dissertations were produced in the South and Southeast regions. We identified that the Federal University of Ouro Preto and the Federal University of Goiás were the institutions with the highest number of dissertations defended, both with two (02) dissertations. In the vertical mapping, we found five (05) thematic axes, highlighting trends and future perspectives. We believe that such information can be used as coordinates to situate the investigation of the mathematical formation of Pedagogy courses, and even, to expand and deepen later horizontal and vertical mappings.
