As produções dos “professores PDE” para o ensino de frações como medida na reta numérica: possibilidades para o apoio pedagógico no ensino fundamental

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the didactic-pedagogical productions of teachers from the state education system in the state of Paraná resulting from the participation of the Educational Development Program (PDE) regarding the teaching of fractions as a measure using the number line as support. As a background, we establish the main aspects related to the school failure of Basic Education students, as well as the subsidies that are created to help in facing and overcoming the students' difficulties, pointing out pedagogical support programs in force in Brazilian education over time. In the qualitative research, 13 productions available on the Dia a Dia Educação Portal were mapped and 6 categories of analysis were listed. The study highlights that proposals produced by "PDE teachers" for the teaching and learning of the content in question can contribute both to the learning of students in the regular classroom and students who attend the Learning Support Rooms, highlighting that they were identified different ways to work with this content that help to understand various aspects of the set of rational numbers in their fractional form with measured interpretation. The importance of disseminating and better organizing these materials is highlighted, in order to reach more individuals who may be interested in using these productions as a reference, especially Basic Education teachers, given the importance of exchanging experiences between teachers.
