A potencialidade dos objetos de aprendizagem no ensino da matemática

Abstract

This paper aims to show the importance that the Learning Objects (LO) provide to learning. In this context, it is essential to know the main aspects that surround such objects, and the facility offered to the student, through the creation of cyberspace that in many cases, are in their own homes. Besides the access to technological resources, it is important to note that Information Communication Technologies (ICT) have enabled the Education, via their media, more interactive and meaningful classes for students. In this way, this research has a bibliographic and experimental nature, culminating in the production of a Learning Object - "Come to Learn" – through the INTERA methodology, in the figure of cyberspace and in the validation of a compound place used by sixteen students from a state school located in Minas Gerais. The Learning Object "Come to Learn" was designed and modeled to meet the discipline of mathematics, in particular to the Statistical contents of primary and secondary education. Its construction was carried out by steps, which tried to use elements that could be adequate to the objects, and also its features. The interaction between the statistics and the interactivity, combined with colors, brought quite a significant effect on the activities. On the other hand, the study analysis showed that students are aware of the importance of LA for the study of statistics, and that the design, the layout used in LA "Come to Learn" provided many benefits, not only in terms of learning, but also in aesthetic terms, that is because it is an attraction tool, enabling stimulations to the students to use and learn the content. Finally, it was possible to ascertain that the Learning Objects have emerged to provide innovations to the teaching, and the use of "Come to Learn" offers advantages, in supporting the students` learning.
