O ensino de matemática nos anos inciais da educação básica e a utilização de celulares como recurso pedagógico

Abstract

This paper aims to analyze how Educational Technologies, through the MIT App Inventor platform and the applications available for use on cell phones, help teachers during the teaching of Mathematics in the Early Years of Elementary School. For this, the authors followed what Seymour Papert, Jean Piaget and Paulo Freire advocate. In addition, the contents of articles, dissertations and theses were analyzed with the context of the use of cell phones as educational resources and especially projects involving App Inventor. The researches were carried out in the repository of ANPEd, ENPEC and SciELO and in the journal Renote. Based on an application already made, through the MIT App Inventor platform, the authors created a database and made the Mathematical Quiz Application available on the Google Play Store. Therefore, this research allowed a new look at the use of cell phones as a pedagogical resource in Basic Education Mathematics classes (initial grades), passing through the reports, experiences and methodologies published by educators and researchers of educational technologies, and the contribution that this work are available with the publication of the Mathematical Quiz for the Android platform, so that it can increase the opportunity of using cell phones as a pedagogical resource for educators.
