Contribuições da neurociências para a educação matemática de uma pessoa com necessidades educativas especiais intelectivas

This article presents a framework from a qualitative research, which is a case study, conducted with a student who has Spina Bifida, implementing an individualized electronic didactic sequence, which has as its central objective to qualify his autonomy in mathematics. The investigated student was 14 years old and attended the 7th grade of elementary school in 2012. The guiding question of this research was: can a person with a mild level of Intellective Special Educational Needs overcome cognitive difficulties in Mathematics involving an electronic didactic sequence? We emphasize the importance of neuroscience advances in educational process of people with Intellective Special Educational Needs, the multimodality of stimuli offered by Information and Communication Technology and the frameworks from the experiment results carried out between 2010 and 2012, with weekly meetings between researchers and the student, which indicate an evolution related to mathematical concepts such as cardinality, ordinality, place value, additive structure, comprehension of units of time, Brazilian monetary system and resolution of problems involving these concepts, especially those related to the additive field.

Estudo de Caso com Estudante com Espinha Bífida e o Uso do Sistema Tutorial Inteligente

Este trabalho e um recorte da pesquisa conjunta entre o Grupo de Estudos Curriculares em Educacao Matematica (GECEM) da Universidade Luterana do Brasil (ULBRA), Canoas, Rio Grande do Sul e o grupo de Tecnologias Educativas da Universidade de La Laguna (ULL), Tenerife, Espanha, fruto do convenio de colaboracao cientifica entre essas universidades. Neste artigo apresentam-se os resultados de um estudo de caso sobre a construcao dos conceitos logico-matematicos nas series iniciais do Ensino Fundamental, em um aluno com Espinha Bifida e Sindrome de Arnold Chiari. Foram desenvolvidas sessoes de estudos com o software Sistema Tutorial Inteligente (ITS) com os conceitos de quantificacao, classificacao, seriacao e correspondencia termo a termo. Os dados foram analisados atraves de uma abordagem qualitativa, de cunho descritivo, exploratorio e analitico.
