Abstract:In this paper, we analyse the results of an experience designed and implemented to evaluate the epistemic and cognitive conflicts identified in the study of proportionality, carried out by a group of 21 students in their last year of primary education. Initially the students exhibit difficulties to recognize situations where proportionality can be applied, to distinguish magnitudes, quantities and proportionality tables, and to identify procedures to solve proportionality problems other than the rule of three.… Show more
“…At this stage, the activities carried out by the research subjects were the five subjects associated the signs with the knowledge they previously had and looked for all signs according to the objects found. A person can have different interpretations related to images, this depends on how the person interprets the image image (Burgos & Godino, 2020;Gravells, 2017;Kralemann, et al, 2013).The five subjects associated the number of sweeties found with a numeric symbol representing the number of sweeties. From the observations, subject 5 experienced confusion in looking for the symbol number 9.…”
Playing mathematics in early childhood based on semiotics gives children the opportunity to identify objects, look for signs and interpret signs so that they can solve problems in games. This study aims to describe semiotic based early childhood mathematics play activities. The research was conducted at the PAUD Lab School, Muhammadiyah University of Jember. The research subjects were 5 children from group B. The results showed that the activities of playing mathematics in early childhood based on semiotics were (1) collecting information related to semiotic-based math games, (2) looking for objects that matched the game and counting the number of objects found, (3) looking for relevant signs and signs. that are relevant to the number of objects found, (4) associated with signs of knowledge that have been previously possessed and look for all signs according to the objects found, (5) the child retells the play that has been done

“…Research about solving arithmetic word problems has shown that students use improper applications of linearity, referred to as the illusion of linearity (Van Dooren et al, 2005). Burgos and Godino (2020) studied written solutions of missing value tasks, followed by interviews with Spanish students (aged 11-12). The authors found that students struggled to identify proportional situations as well as to discern the different quantities in the proportional relationship.…”

“…Furthermore, textbooks provide limited support for students' development of mathematical structures (Vergnaud, 1983) necessary for the learning of proportional reasoning (Shield & Dole, 2013). For example, there are limited opportunities for students to distinguish proportional from non-proportional situations in textbook tasks (Burgos & Godino, 2020), and the intuitive approach to proportionality is also not recognized in the tasks presented in the textbooks. This article reports on an empirical study on how students (aged 12-13) in Sweden reason when they are confronted with two pattern tasks during one lesson, where the focus of the analysis is on indications of proportional reasoning as the learning processes occur.…”
This case study explores how 12-13-year-old students encounter proportional reasoning while working with geometric patterning tasks using concrete materials. The focus is on the students' use of spontaneous concepts when first dealing with such patterns in the context of collaborative work. Based on video recordings of a single lesson, a microgenetic analysis was performed to identify students' learning trajectories, starting with students familiarizing themselves with pattern structure, followed by engagement in proportional reasoning, and ending with students perceiving a new technique to handle a situation where proportional reasoning did not suffice. While some student groups were able to move along the whole trajectory, most groups, when facing challenges, regressed to simpler techniques. The results provide new insights into students' learning trajectories, which can be used to support students' progress in the context of student-teacher interaction.
“…O conceito de proporcionalidade é um conceito complexo que requer a mobilização de vários outros conceitos, designadamente os conceitos de razão, proporção e função. Estudos realizados antes mostram que os alunos, em que se incluem também futuros professores dos primeiros anos escolares, têm dificuldades nos conceitos de razão, proporção e proporcionalidade (e.g., Berenson, Oldham, Price & Leite, 2013;Beswick, 2011;Burgos & Godino, 2020a;Fernandes, Barros & Gonçalves, 2019, 2020Fernandes & Leite, 2015;Livy & Vale;2011;Singh, 2000), dificuldades essas relativas à definição, à representação e à aplicação destes conceitos à resolução de situações-problema.…”
Section: Aplicação Da Proporcionalidade Direta à Resolução De Uma Situação Do Quotidiano Por Futuros Professores Dos Primeiros Anosunclassified
Neste artigo estuda-se a compreensão de estudantes, futuros professores dos primeiros anos, sobre a aplicação do conceito de proporcionalidade direta à resolução de uma situação do quotidiano, quando o uso de uma ou de duas expressões de proporcionalidade direta simultaneamente é requerido. Participaram no estudo 72 estudantes do 1.º ano do curso de Licenciatura em Educação Básica de uma universidade do norte de Portugal. Os dados foram obtidos através da aplicação de um questionário, versando os conceitos de razão, proporção e proporcionalidade direta. Aqui, neste trabalho, explora-se uma das várias tarefas do questionário, aquela que se refere à aplicação da proporcionalidade direta à resolução de uma situação-problema do quotidiano. Em termos dos principais resultados obtidos, salienta-se um melhor desempenho na situação cuja resolução requer o uso de apenas uma expressão de proporcionalidade direta, o qual diminui muito quando a situação requer o uso simultâneo de duas expressões de proporcionalidade direta e, mais ainda, quando se acrescenta a inversão de operações aritméticas. Portanto, destaca-se a necessidade de confrontar estes futuros professores com situações cuja resolução requer a aplicação simultânea de mais de uma expressão de proporcionalidade direta.
