Modelagem matemática no ensino médio : percepção matemática por meio da música

Abstract

The goal of this Master s Thesis Degree was to analyze the mathematics perception of High School students by means of Mathematical Modeling Teaching in Music. It was organized in four chapters, named Maps. The first one is identification map, which it was recognized the research, it was presented the justification, the problem, the goals, the volunteers collaborators and the methodological procedures used. The second map, second chapter, it was presented theoretical reflections addressing the relationship of Mathematics topics with Music (theme of pedagogical activity), Mathematical Modeling (research theme), and Perception (subject of analysis) which were bases of pedagogical proposal and data analysis. The third chapter is the field s map, in this part are described the empirical data of this research, which were obtained from the application of didactic proposal with volunteers students who attended High School and participated in workshops of musical instruments in an Institute in Pato Branco (PR). Using a qualitative analysis from a case study, the analysis s map approaches the data obtained in the application of research from theoretical studies on the relationship of Mathematics with Music, Mathematical Modeling and Perception. The results of the research showed that, by means of Mathematical Modeling Teaching, students raised hypotheses, watched, they reflected, interpreted, solved problems and, realized in Music theoretical concepts of Mathematics.
