“…The graph is symmetric with respect to the Y axis, so it is possible to calculate only the section in the first quadrant (from 0 to 40 cm) and duplicate it. The limits and derivative (7) data are substituted into the Arc Length (8) formula: The length of the inner arc is L=40 π cm, approximately 125.66 cm. This section is intended to exemplify the use of rectangular coordinates, but for this exercise it is better to use polar or parametric coordinates, due to the amount of calculation involved.…”

“…In [5], artefacts and digital tools in mathematics education are detailed as well as mathematical practices for inside or outside the university and in [6] a mobile game learning system in university education is presented. Another connection between mathematics and educational innovation is in [7], where a game with a cardboard robot and matrix calculations is presented, using the same principle as in [8] on competitive games in learning.…”

In the present work, a model of a Roman Arch is built and the Integral Calculus is applied to determine the Length of the Arch in Cartesian and Parametric coordinates, and the area in Polar coordinates. The objective is to create an enjoyable learning environment to the mathematics students. The educational model is made of wood and is made up of small blocks. Students must assemble the arch using two pieces of brackets and a clamp, without touching the blocks with their hands. An internal competition is carried out to determine the group of three people to do it in the shortest time. The activity creates an enjoyable environment to deal with these topics and makes student learning productive.
