Uma proposta de ensino com modelagem matemática: o estudo de movimentos através da analise de vídeos com o programa tracker

Abstract

When preparing a class, many teachers face difficulties related to how to make it attractive and provoking for their students, but the use of technological resources can facilitate this process. The present study discusses the need to improve the dynamics of teaching and learning functions in the classroom through mathematical modeling and the help of technology in video analysis of moving objects with the Tracker software. In this context, the general objective of this research is to build a didactic proposal with a view to understanding the concept of functions for the study of physical movements using the methodology of mathematical modeling with the help of the Tracker software. It is a qualitative research of exploratory character. For this, an analysis of a video with the oblique launch of a table tennis ball was initially performed, where it was possible to verify the use of the program can satisfactorily contribute to the development of the mathematical modeling proposal. Afterwards, a didactic sequence was elaborated that can be applied to high school students, considering the steps of mathematical modeling by Bassanezi (2014). The final considerations of this research indicate the study carried out proposes an active methodology in order to encourage students to solve mathematical problems and everyday problem situations through the construction of mathematical models.
