Uma sequência didática para a aprendizagem das noções de trigonometria fundada na teoria das inteligências múltiplas

Abstract

The present study had as main objective to analyze the potentialities of the Multiple Intelligences recognized by Gardner to help mobilize the learning of the notions of Trigonometry through a Didactic Sequence. Data collection focused on 14 (9th grade) students from a school in the city of Gararu / SE / Brazil. The theoretical arguments draw on Gardner's findings (1983, 1995, 1998, 2010), focusing his contributions to learning through the development of Multiple Intelligences Theory and Fonseca (2002, 2010, 2012, 2015) in his arguments that contribute to the Mathematics Education, in focus, the learning of Trigonometry. With the intention of answering the restlessness, that guides this study of - how to mobilize the learning of the notions of Trigonometry (trigonometric reasons in the triangle rectangle - sine, cosine and tangent) in the 9th year of Basic Education according to the Theory of Multiple Intelligences? - Artigue's Didactic Engineering (1988) was chosen as a research methodology based on a sequence of reflexive activities, based on the development stages of this methodology. At the end of this experiment, students' learning about the trigonometric ratios in the right triangle culminated significantly in the interrelationship with the Multiple Intelligences theory, and the results detected presuppose the permanence of expanding the search for understanding And approach of the contents directed to the learning of the notions of Trigonometry.
