Projeto de nivelamento de matemática básica no ensino médio: uma análise da percepção dos estudantes

Abstract

School failure in the subject of Mathematics can be a consequence of many situations experienced by the student, and one way to solve this problem is to establish methodologies for students with learning difficulties. In view of such methodologies, the present study aimed to investigate the perception of students from an Integral School in the Municipality of João Pessoa - PB, about the activities of the Leveling project that are adopted in all integral high schools in the state. For the development of the report, we conducted a qualitative research of the exploratory type, in which a questionnaire was used with 7 (seven) questions of which 6 (six) were of the evaluation scale type and the last one was an open question to the suggestions of the students. The theoretical contribution of this work came from the discussions of Cruz (2014), Silva (2014), Santos (2016), Castro (2016), Alves (2018), Brzezinski (2002), Gomes (2010) and others who guide their work in the learning processes, cause of school failure and the implications of school reinforcement . In addition, the laws governing education in Brazil and in the state of Paraíba also helped to substantiate this study. According to the answers collected, the students consider it important and dedicate themselves to Leveling activities, however, they report that they would like to take more practical classes, use of technologies and deepen the contents worked in the didactic sequences. Analyzing the activities proposed in the material and the practice of teachers in the classroom, we realized that the school does not have the necessary materials to perform some activities. The students also expressed criticism regarding the structure of various activities, with many questions to be answered in two weekly classes and occupy a lot of time in the classes of the regular content planned for the school year.
