DESIGN METODOLÓGICO PARA ANÁLISE DE ATIVIDADES DE GEOMETRIA SEGUNDO A TEORIA DOS REGISTROS DE REPRESENTAÇÃO SEMIÓTICA

Abstract

The present research focused on the specificities of the Theory of Registers of Semiotic Representation on Geometry for the elaboration of a compiled framework of categories for cognitive analysis of questions. It was based on the methodology of Content Analysis. From this picture, it was possible to point which aspect of the referred theory concerning the learning of Geometry is contemplated in examples of Prova Brasil applied to the elementary school and high school. The objectives sought were:indicating how this theory may theoretically subsidize the organization of the Geometry teaching; evidence, in examples of questions of the Prova Brazil, the occurrence of Duval's propositions relating to the ideas of Geometry; and point out, possible referrals to a teaching with the cognitive approach of the theory. The results of the analyzes allowed to infer that the cognitive specificities are contemplated in superficial andincomplete perspectives, and according to the level of teaching of the questions some views or apprehensions are not required. The category table may be extended for analyzes of other types of questions or resolutions, it allows a broader view of what is being valued or neglected in the teaching of Geometry.
