Plano cartesiano e aplicativos de localização: uma abordagem prática para ensino de matemática no ensino fundamental

Abstract

This work seeks to connect the mathematical concepts of the Cartesian plane, point coordinates, and the distance between two points with the use of digital technologies—specifically the interfaces of location-based apps such as Google Maps and transportation apps like Uber and 99. This analysis is conducted under the theoretical perspectives of Marcelo Borba, Pierre Lévy, Vani Kenski, and Neil Selwyn regarding the use of technology in education. This dissertation is characterized as a qualitative experience report; as such, the emphasis is placed on the teacher's perception of using digital technologies in the classroom for the study of mathematics in the final years of elementary school (7th, 8th, and 9th grades).
