Matemática E Programação: Uma Nova Abordagem De Ensino

Abstract

In recent decades we have gone through a great technological (r)evolution, therefore, it is essential that our society has technological knowledge, among these, computational thinking and computational language. Part of this technological growth comes from the need to solve problems, many of them linked to mathematics. In Brazil, we have the BNCC, which proposes to relate problem solving and computational thinking. Therefore, this research aims to bring a connection between these two areas in order to meet the demands of the teacher, who may need help in creating a class involving programming and mathematics, and the student, who in turn needs to be familiar with new technologies that the labor market demands. We propose activities with the use of programs with computational languages in order to stimulate the discussion and insertion of computational thinking through mathematics in school curricula. Finally, this work presents the results of the proposed activities, with topics to be considered with regard to computational thinking and applied mathematics in basic education.
