O ensino dos sólidos geoméricos no contexto das tecnologias da informação

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the software Geogebra 3D and Wingeom in the elaboration of knowledge of geometric solids. One must know how to use the tools available in Geogebra 3D and Wingeom software, using the computer and how they aid in the learning of geometric solids, presenting them as an alternative means of calculating areas and volumes of geometric solids. As a way of pointing out some characteristics considered elementary in the mediation of the teaching of spatial geometry, this research will analyze these two softwares used in High School. The project was based on a bibliographical research, beginning with the teaching situation in the digital age, emphasizing that technologies are fundamental to mathematical teaching, and it is up to the teacher to recognize that the computer equipped with good software is a very promising resource. Characteristics of each software such as the different types of licenses and softwares are presented, with the purpose of helping the teacher in the educational process in the choice of mathematical software that does not have costs for their acquisition; Also the descriptions of the concepts, the indication of the series of teaching and the contents that can be given, the directions of addresses for their acquisition, installation and obtaining of tutorials and manuals. It is emphasized that it is not the purpose of the paper to discuss the potentialities, use strategies or methodologies in the classroom for each presented software, but to analyze the two.
