Educação financeira: vinculada ao ensino da matemática

Abstract

Financial Education associated with the teaching of Mathematics presents the need to address this issue in schools, and aims to allow an increase in knowledge and development of the students participating in the Project. We know that, according to the Common National Curriculum Framework, mathematical knowledge contributes to Financial Education and planning for the future, both of which are part of our civic education. The Project makes use of technology and communication networks, something that is increasingly present in the field of teaching and study in schools. The lessons were made available on a YouTube channel, "Finanças à Parte", and contact with the students was made through a WhatsApp group, a chat application widely used by students, as well as forms created through GoogleForms and the Google Classroom platform. There was a first face-to-face contact to present the Project and apply a questionnaire, even before the start of the classes made available, with the aim of reapplying it after the end of the access period and, from there, building this work. With this, we will be able to reach more significant conclusions about the importance of having financially educated citizens, even before they have available resources, especially when considering the young people who attend public schools in Brazil.
