Pialarissi, Elisiê; De Oliveira Prado, Danielle Gonçalves; Da Silva, Gustavo Avelino; De Godoi, Milena Maria – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2022
As imperceptible as it is, mathematics is fundamental and is present on several occasions in our daily lives, but among 65 countries Brazil still ranks 53rd in education. The lack of investment in primary education has affected students learning since the early years. From this perspective, this paper proposed to verify teaching/learning in…

Rosa, Mauricio; Farsani, Danyal; da Silva, Caroline Antunes – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2020
This article investigates the perception of students in the first year of high school in relation to their own body language, while mathematically they conjecture a way to improve their performance in an electronic bowling game, which uses body sensors for own actions of the game. Interactions were performed by a group of four students from a…

Fernandes, Vitor Borsatto; Tavares, Igor Ferreira; Magalhães, Giovana de Aquino; de Oliveira Prado, Danielle Gonçalves; de Oliveira Prado, Isabelle Gonçalves; Vieira, Lucas Augusto – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2022
Brazil is a country that does not invest enough in basic education, thus leaving a gap in the knowledge of young people studying in public schools and jeopardizing their future. One of the main ways to get into college in Brazil is through the National High School Exam (ENEM), a multiple-choice test administered by the National Institute of…

Gresse von Wangenheim, Christiane; Araújo e Silva de Medeiros, Giselle; Missfeldt Filho, Raul; Petri, Giani; da Cruz Pinheiro, Fernando; Ferreira, M. Nathalie; Hauck, Jean C. R. – Informatics in Education, 2019
Teaching computational thinking in K-12 as a 21st century skill is becoming increasingly important. Computational thinking describes a specific way of reasoning building on concepts and processes derived from algorithms and programming. One way to teach these concepts is games as an effective and efficient alternative. This article presents…

Fonseca, Maria da Conceição Ferreira Reis – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2020
The diversity of vulnerability conditions, that have prevented children and adolescents from exercising their right to school education, also produces a diversity of cultural references of the public that comes to Basic Education programs for Youth and Adults in developing countries. This diversity often forges appropriation processes of numeracy…

López, Paula; Rodrigues-Silva, Jefferson; Alsina, Ángel – Education Sciences, 2021
This article reports a multiple case study in which we analyse Brazilian and Spanish mathematics teachers' opinions about and predispositions toward gamified activities in STEAM education. To obtain data, we administered a survey to 56 in-service mathematics teachers in primary and secondary education from these countries. The survey had been…

Battistella, Paulo Eduardo; von Wangenheim, Christiane Gresse; von Wangenheim, Aldo; Martina, Jean Everson – Informatics in Education, 2017
The teaching of sorting algorithms is an essential topic in undergraduate computing courses. Typically the courses are taught through traditional lectures and exercises involving the implementation of the algorithms. As an alternative, this article presents the design and evaluation of three educational games for teaching Quicksort and Heapsort.…

Knijnik, Gelsa – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2012
This paper discusses a new philosophical perspective for ethnomathematics which articulates Ludwig Wittgenstein's and Michel Foucault's theoretical notions. It is conceived as a theoretical toolbox which allows the analysis of, on the one hand, the mathematical language games of different forms of life and their family resemblances and, on the…

Knijnik, Gelsa; Wanderer, Fernanda – Open Review of Educational Research, 2015
The article discusses mathematics education within two educational projects addressed to rural multigrade schools in Brazil: Active School Program (in Portuguese, Programa Escola Ativa--PEA) and the Landless Movement (Movimento Sem Terra--MST) Pedagogy. It is based on an ethnomathematics perspective drawn from Wittgenstein's later work and Michel…

Manrique, Ana Lucia; Dirani, Ely A.T.; Frere, Annie F.; Moreira, Geraldo E.; Arezes, Pedro M. – International Journal of Educational Management, 2019
Purpose: Despite dealing with special educational needs (SEN) students, many teachers feel unprepared for this task. This situation reveals the urgent need for studies in different areas, directed toward the inclusion of students in regular classrooms. Therefore, a diagnosis about the situation of inclusive education and the resources available in…

Cunha, Kátia Machinez; Sholl-Franco, Alfred – Journal of Research in Special Educational Needs, 2016
The use of inclusive teaching materials that motivate and encourage the development of executive functions has been neglected by the mathematic teaching, in which intelligence is valued, but no efforts are made to stimulate it. There are numerous reasons for that, among which are teachers' and students' unawareness that mathematics involves higher…
