Análise de erros em frações: um estudo de caso em uma turma do 7º ano do ensino fundamental no contexto do ensino remoto

Abstract

The present work has as general objective to analyze the mistakes of the students of a 7th grade class when solving and interpreting problems involving the fraction knowledge object as part of a whole and as a result of the division of two natural numbers in the context of remote education. Therefore, we applied a questionnaire with six contextualized questions, in a class of nine students from a state school located in the city of Guarabira-PB. The methodology used for the development of the research is characterized, as regards the approach to the problem, as qualitative. As for its goals, it is classified as descriptive and, in relation to technical procedures, as a case study. As a final proposal, a didactic sequence was elaborated, aiming to alleviate the mistakes made by the students in relation to our general objective. The research denoted six classifications for the mistakes made by the students, such as: correct resolutions; develop much of the reasoning, but fail to achieve the expected result; they do not understand what is being asked in the statement; failure to understand the object of knowledge addressed; the non-remembering of other objects of knowledge from previous years and, finally, many did not attach the development of the issue. The inferences made in this research may enable teachers to reflect on their teaching practice and how they are making corrections to the activities carried out by the students.
