The objective is for the professional to design, apply and evaluate teaching proposals for a meaningful learning of their students, critically analyzing the mathematics curriculum and fostering continuous reflection on teaching practice in the area. This professional program lasts for 4 semesters.
It includes as a central core the didactics by axis: algebra, geometry and numbers, and statistics and Probabilities. These courses are based on didactic analysis, that is, the review of phenomenological, cognitive, conceptual, curricular and historical-epistemological aspects that provide the teacher with the foundations to intervene in the phenomena of the mathematics classroom and internally validate their practice.
It is aimed at Teachers of Mathematics, graduates or in the process of graduation, graduates in Mathematics, Teachers of Basic Education.
